A gnome that can mix up her look! A mix-up with the annual Longest Gnight gift exchange meant that Gnova ended up with a lot of accessories …and a whole village of new friends.


She's the first gnome to feature an underhat. What’s an underhat? It’s the hat every gnome has under their out-and-about hat. It’s also, frankly, a way for me to resolve the problem of how to design a gnome with multiple hat options that doesn’t mean I have to decide what a gnome without a hat looks like! I’ve been pondering this for years, and it seems to me that only a gnome should gnow what’s underneath.


🎁Note: The English and German versions of this pattern also contain the picture book story, a recipe, a pattern for a stack of gifts, a code for the Textured Stripe Scrappy Hat, a colouring page, and printable gift tags.
