Gnome Sweet Home Gonk could be used as a gift to any budding estate agents out there or as a present for anyone who’s buying a new home. He has his own key so I guess anywhere could be classed as HIS gnome (home) sweet home.

He’s not too difficult to knit. You’d only need basic stitch knowledge i.e. knit, purl, stocking stitch, garter, cast off etc. I’ve used the iCord method within the pattern. Instructions are included.

He is knitted flat using 3mm needles and DK yarn. I’ve given him a cute little key tag for his key and have included a link within the pattern to the ones I used.

You will also require:
2 x 10mm Black Domed Buttons for Eyes
Toy Stuffing
10cm (4’’) Pipe Cleaner for Key
20cm (8’’) 3mm thick wire
