This is a great baby for any family; but the Gnomes are especially proud of their little boy (only boy gnomes are born with a beard. Who knew??).

He’s knitted in the round from the top of his baby head to the bottom of his, well, bottom! The diaper is knitted separately. His cute striped baby hat is also separate. Arms and legs are added separately. Nose is knitted in as you go.

You’ll need a set of four double pointed needles in size US4/3.5mm. Also, for this one you’ll need a 7/8”/25mm diameter button and a pipe cleaner to match for the pacifier. The diaper is pinned with a couple of 7/8”/25mm gold safety pins.

He has cute booties of yellow garter stitch and a stockinette striped baby hat. So sweet! This make a cute topper for a shower cake or a Baby New Year decoration!
