Gordon the gnome

Step by step pictures and guide to make your own Gordon the Gnome 

You will need:-

Wool roving2-3g of the colour of choice (I picked green) 

Some roving for the face, and hands (I chose flesh you can use pink or any flesh tone you want I have seen blue gnomes too) 

Some roving for hair and some green and purple for a flower 

36/38/40 needles I started with a 36 

I spread out the green roving I had chosen then I folded over the end to make a triangle 

Then I rolled the roving 

Felt the ends in 

I then started to shape the roving 

I continued until the shape was much firmer and changed to a38 needle 

I then selected the roving that I wanted to use for his face 

And the one for his hair

I then folded the flesh coloured roving into a circle 

And then I loosely felted it to my gnome 

I then swapped to my 40 needle to finish his face

I then selected a small amount of roving for his nose 

I then used a small anount of wool roving in brown for his hair and beard 

After adding these I then made 2 balls of flesh roving to make hands

Then add some green and purple to make a flower
