“Spidey Gnome, Spidey Gnome. He can live with you in your home!”

No arachnophobia here! This is the answer to your search for the perfect Halloween Gnome! Spidey proudly wears his black widow costume, complete with hourglass, adorable hat, and three sets of arms/hands and one set of legs (remember, spiders have 8 of them!!). As always, his chubby hands, all six of them!, are crossed and clasped over his even chubbier tummy. He’s so cute and maybe a teeny bit scary, too!

I used four colors of dk weight Berroco Vintage DK and Baby. They are inexpensive and readily available and washable. Perfect for our gnome! He makes a fine addition to our growing gnome family. One of the pictures shows him sitting with his gnomey friends!
