From Gnatalia, the garment historian in service to the Ladybug Queen, to Gnorri, the skilled gardener tending to the Ancient Oak, each gnome has a distinct personality waiting to be explored. These whimsical characters are not just knitted creations; they’re tales waiting to be told.

• The book begins with advice on all the materials and notions you need, followed by a small techniques section on all the basic know-how to create your gnome (including stitches and bodies)
• Then, grab your needles and necessities and knit 8 of gnomes that live in the mystical forest of Grimblewood!
• Every gnome is made in 2 weights of yarn – fingering (4-ply) and light worsted (DK/8-ply), so you can knit your favorite individual in both a small or medium size.
• Only five colors are used to make each weight of gnome, meaning you don’t need to invest in dozens of different shades.
• Sarah Schira has also given advice on how to adapt your gnomes to make them child-friendly, if you wish to make friends for the little ones in your life.
