This Jolly Gingerbread House display would make a super knitted centrepiece to your festive dinner table, buffet or mantlepiece, perhaps with a dusting of fake snow too! The knitting pattern includes instructions to knit the house, snowman, tree and display mat. The roof of the gingerbread house uses a 2 colour honeycomb slip stitch pattern to make the textured icing.
