Description
🦘 AUSSIE BUSH GNOMES VOL 2 — 12 original knitting patterns (PDF, 51 pages) 🌿
Twelve brand-new tall-hat gnomes from the Australian bush — no repeats from Vol 1, just twelve fresh relatives. This is the working bush in gnome form: an outback mailman with letters poking out of his satchel, a flying doctor with a stethoscope round his neck, an opal miner holding his find up to the lamplight, and a cassowary standing beside its keeper with all the dignity that bird can carry. Every gnome in our Aussie family shop's second bush collection shares one honest skeleton (a 30-stitch body, a tall cone hat, a tapered beard and a round nose sitting on top of it), so you learn the bones once and then spend your evenings on the fun part: the characters.
Australia runs through every pattern — the shearer's woolly sheep, the stockman's coiled lasso, the billabong barramundi, the galah on a shoulder, the dingo pup in two arms and a basket of Queensland macadamias. Knit one for the shelf, a pair for a friend, or work through the whole dozen for a little bush parade that works all year round, no season required.

Each of the 12 patterns includes:
• A dedicated photo page for its own gnome
• A pattern-at-a-glance box (type, finished size, pieces, colours, level)
• Full round-by-round instructions with stitch counts on every round — every ladder is arithmetic-checked
• Step-by-step assembly, including how each prop or animal mate is attached
• A maker's tip from the design table
They make wonderful handmade gifts, shelf and windowsill decorations, and a very collectable set alongside Vol 1 — knit a gnome to match its human (every family has a shearer, a stockman and somebody who guards the mail run) and watch it become the present everybody talks about.
Skill level: Confident beginner. DK (8-ply) yarn, 3.25 mm (US 3) double-pointed needles, knitted in the round (flat pieces are clearly marked "worked flat"). Finished size: about 15 cm (6 in) body, 28 cm (11 in) total with tall hat.
