This is a cheerful addition to my family of gnome patterns. This is Bumble Gnome. He is sporting yellow and black stripes with a black hat and antennae! He has black legs and shoes and black sleeves. As always (except on Ballerina Gnome) he is growing a lovely white beard. He has wings to keep him flying from flower to flower.

His body, head and hat are knitted in the round. His wings and shoes are knitted flat. The only seams are in the shoes (and they are little ones). You will sew the legs and arms to the body with small stitches.

You can almost hear him buzzing!

You will need to know how to or learn to co, bo, k, p, k2tog, ssk, knit in the round, work i-cord and turn.
