    Christmas Gonk (Gnome) Wreath Part Two

    Last week we introduced you to our newest knitalong, a fabulous wreath full of cute gonks and decorations. This instalment features an adorable reindeer gonk, who’s got himself in a bit of a tangle with the fairy lights!

    Christmas Gonk (Gnome) Wreath Part Three

    We hope you’re enjoying our latest knitalong? Here’s another cutie to add to your collection – a Christmas Tree Gonk! We love the little baubles over his hat. These are worked separately and sewn on afterwards so you don’t need to worry about colourwork while you are knitting the hat. Don’t forget the sweet stocking and candy cane which will be used to decorate the lower section of your wreath.

    Christmas Gonk (Gnome) Wreath Part Five

    We adore everything about this little fellow from his bright blue pom-pom to his little pointy ears. He’s also bringing us some figgy pudding – and as the song tells us, there’s no better way to wish someone Merry Christmas! Take time when stuffing your gonks, using small pieces of teased-out stuffing to avoid a lumpy finish.

    Christmas Gonk (Gnome) Wreath Part Six

    As knitters, we know the joy of giving gifts to others and this colourful character seems to agree – just look at that neatly wrapped pressie! As with the other gonks in this series, the body, head and hat are worked together so you’ve just got one main seam to stitch up. Try to match your stripes while you sew to give a pro finish. The present in his hands is folded up diagonally so you only…
