Amigurumi Gnome Reviewed by Judy Carlson on 2009-07-20 *****
I made my gnome into a wizard with a huge fun fur beard! I used glow in the dark yarn to make stars on the purple gown and hat. Did a few rounds of beige at the beginning of the arms for hands and black at the beginning of the legs for boots.
