Product Details
My late father was a keen gardener, as is my brother ( I try my best!). This year my eldest son has really gotten into gardening also so Percy Grower Gardening Gonk Gnome is for the important men in my life. I think he’d make the perfect Fathers day gift. I know my dad would have had a chuckle at him and would have loved him.
He’s not too difficult to knit. You’d only need basic stitch knowledge i.e. knit, purl, stocking stitch, garter, cast off etc. I’ve used a normal iCord for the prongs of his fork. Instructions are included within the pattern.
He is knitted flat using 3mm needles and DK yarn. I’ve also used a crotchet chain to snake up his flower pot hat but if you are not into crotchet you could simply sew a line of back stitch using green yarn and it would work just as well.
You'd also require 2 x 10mm Black Domed Buttons for Eyes 4 x 10mm Red Shirt Buttons for Decoration
