Happy felting!
Marvelous!
What a great video and easy to follow. How cute your gnome is!
Blaine Spies Thanks so much. Glad you’re enjoying the tutorials 🙂
I love the way you teach ...
Thanks so much :)
Oh Sandy, you make it look so easy! I have to just dive in and do it...LOLOL My excuse for procrastinating is I must clean house...Well, I have decided today that the house can wait but the Gnomes can't....Thank you for your lovely tutorial on UA-cam....Can't wait for my Winter pumpkin kit to arrive from England but in the meantime, Gnomes...
Haha! Cleaning is a dirty word and it will only need doing again next week. Can't wait to see your gnomes and for you to receive your pumpkins. You will be lost down the needle felting rabbit hole and I can't think of anything better 💗
Enjoyed your video. The gnome is simply adorable!
Thanks so much Tina. More to come next year 🙂
Adorable project, thank you!
Thanks so much 🙂💞
@@thefelthub Welcome.
How adorable!
absolutely awesome thanks so much ....perfect gnome😊🥰
You are so welcome 😊
So glad I found your clear and easy to understand tutorial. I got a felting kit from Aldi 2 years ago and never made anything. But now I'm trying. It's very therapeutic but a bit painful when I perforate my finger 🤣.
Aww that's so great to hear. I don't get on very well with the finger protectors but you do get used to the pain....kind of 😆💗
Hello from Austin, Texas, USA! Yesterday (before I'd seen your vid here,) I'd made a tiny felted gnome as an ornament to hang on the Christmas tree. The beard I'd made was not folded over. This resulted in too-wispy a beard that may actually disappear with handling over a few short years. I'll see if I can rework that one today. I have only merino and angora to work with ("Take what ya got and make what ya want!") so they are quite soft/fine. I can see from your video how a Jacob wool would truly be more suitable. Still, I'll do what I can to use up the stash I have had for ten years! LOL Thank you so much for this tutorial, Sandy! 11/10/20
Thanks for watching and totally agree on use what you have. You will still have good results but it will take a little longer. Rub your fingers all over it to reduce needle marks. I will be live on Facebook this Saturday 8pm GMT (3pm EST) making gnomes so feel free to pop over if you use Facebook :) facebook.com/www.lincolnshirefenncrafts
Thank you for your easy to follow tutorial. I've been sitting on some needle felting supplies for over a year but have been too nervous to get going. Then yesterday I made myself Norman the Nordic Gnome, (I need all the friends I can get during lockdown!) I'm very happy with him but unfortunately made his hat a little too long and he keeps falling over, is there any way I can shorten it? Thank you again and apologies for the long comment.
Glad it was helpful and thanks so much for your lovely message. The easiest way is to snip the end of his hat and re-felt the top. However, cut wool doesn't felt well so you may need to add some fresh wool or sew up the gap. Make sure you roll the tip in your hands to get a nice point again. The other option is to roll up the hat from the base to shorten it, but if you roll it up too far it may then be too big for Normans body and look a bit odd. Just go with whichever one works best and don't be too precious as most problems are fixable. Hope this helps. Thanks :)
I have a statue and it’s head broke off. This was a great replacement.
My sister made these in elementary
They are so great for kids to make and really easy :)
hello, thank you for sharing the know how. When I'm felting it, especially the hat, there are quite a lot fly aways. Is it because it is not well felt? Need more poking?
Yes, exactly but you can also trim the flyaway bits with a pair of sharp scissors :)
i would want to make thia aomeday. butt i would have to practice first/
Thanks for this video. I used it to make Vikings just changed the hat making a domed helmet with horns instead. Any chance you could do a Hare video. I'd love to know how you make them. Thanks :)
Hi and glad you are enjoying my tutorials. If you follow all the basic shapes videos it takes you through making the hare one part at a time and then final assembly. :)
I'm just starting out !
Really enjoying learning & watching your video's.
Can you tell me what your Hessian mat is stuffed with please ?
☆♡☆
Alice georgeson That’s so great to hear! I just use dried rice but dried lentils or similar would work just as well. Around a kilo and a half for the bag size I’m using. If you have an old hessian shopping bag you can cut it up and use that. 🙂
@@thefelthub
I'll use lentils since the children won't entertain them on a plate. 💜

So thrilled...just began needle felting. MUST TRY THIS CUTE GNOME ! THANK YOU ...
