“Once upon a time, there was a knitter who loved gnomes. She was always cold and couldn’t understand why she was knitting and knitting (and knitting) gnomes rather than cardigans. All she knew was that as she stitched on the beard and the gnome popped into life, complete with a personality and a life history, she would instantly wonder about doing it again.”
Sarah Schira is a knitting designer who loves gnomes. A lot. Her gnome patterns on her Ravelry shop and own website have sold in their thousands, and she has an adoring gnome-loving following across multiple platforms she has over 22,000 followers on Instagram alone. To her delight, many knitters have joined her hashtag, #nevernotgnoming.
When Sarah’s not knitting gnomes, she’s working on knitting accessories for everyday adventures, filming knitting tutorials for her YouTube channel, and planning cycling and hiking trips.
Sarah lives in Manitoba, Canada, with her husband.
Discover all the materials and notions needed, as well as the know-how, to block, stuff and assemble gnomes with distinct personalities. Each one is made in 4-ply and DK, to knit a small or medium size and the book is more suitable for confident hand-knitters.
Here it is, the book of knitting patterns for those delightful, knitted gnomes that pop up on various knitting blogs and social media websites dedicated to our crafts. The patterns are the creation of Sarah Schira who writes this book with a whimsical touch showing her love for her growing gnome family.
There are well illustrated instructions for the different techniques used to make the gnomes, as well as useful tip boxes, along with a useful page of abbreviations, materials and equipment needed. There are patterns for nine gnomes, ranging from Gnoodles, the smallest gnome, to Gnatelia, the colourwork gnome, as well as other gnomes that feature cabling and lace-type patterns. The patterns are adaptable, with instructions and needle sizes given for both dk and fingering weight variations. They are great little projects and perfect for using up a stash of hand dyed and handspun yarn.
Each pattern is written in such a way that it is possible to mix and match between the gnomes - you can choose your own beard type and size, or shape of nose, as well as endless possible colour combinations and yarn types.
Gnoodles the Gnome has already joined my little household, and I envision more gnomes will soon be flying off my needles to join him.
