This is an easy, breezy pattern suitable for all levels.
I like to create quirky, fun yet practical home decor items. The idea for this series of Secret Surprise Gnomes came when I was working on my first Christmas gnomes and I had a bottle of gin on the dining table. Since its original design, I realised the bottle cozy is also suitable to house Mason or Kilner jars. Recycled screw-top jars will also work. Personally, I like to reuse Douwe Egbert’s jars.
The pattern is easily customizable and you can adjust it for a bigger/smaller bottle/jar.

MATERIALS YOU WILL NEED:

Your preferred colour for the Daffodil—25-30g

If you have, a small amount of white mohair yarn for the beard. Mohair yarn brushes easier.
