Materials needed
• 4 double-pointed needles in a size suitable for the yarn weight you are using. I recommend using needles a size or two smaller than the yarn calls for, to produce a firm fabric. İ used Needles size US 2½ (3mm).

• White, grey and red yarn for gnomes. I used Nako Vison / 100% acrylic ; 100gr – 195m /

• Toy stuffing

• Yarn needle

• Stitch holder

• White felt

All rows are worked in the round, this helps avoid ugly seams .
