{"product_id":"scandinavian-christmas-gnome","title":"Scandinavian Christmas Gnome Embroidery Design, Nordic Tomte Holiday Pattern, Instant Download","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis gnome is exactly the Nordic tomte style, the kind you see on those Scandinavian christmas cards where theres no face, just a massive hat, a thick braided beard and stubby lil feet poking out the bottom. The hat is tall and red with white snowflake stitches all over it. The beard is the real showpiece though, three braided columns of grey with red ribbon bows at the tips. Very traditional. Very satisfying to stitch.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe gnome is holding a pair of candy canes, red and white striped, one in each hand. And the round nose is the only facial feature, just this little tan bump peeking out between the hat brim and the beard. 6 colour stops, density is high at 1,055 stitches per square inch, so the fill is very solid and holds up well on both woven and knit fabrics. Stitch count goes from 19,298 at the small piece reaching 47,154 at 7.5 inches wide. Use cutaway stabiliser on the large sizes, dont skimp on the backing or the dense fill will pull the fabric around.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI get messages every christmas season about this one, usually from customers whove seen it on a sweatshirt at a market and come looking for the source. Stitch it on a tea towel or a pillow cover and it looks like it belongs in a Nordic design shop. The braided beard texture stitches up beautifully in person, its one of my favourite designs that always gets comments.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Re Embroidery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46043507884182,"sku":null,"price":4.79,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/6262\/9270\/files\/CuteScandinavianChristmasGnomeEmbroideryDesign.png?v=1766315683","url":"https:\/\/reembroidery.com\/products\/scandinavian-christmas-gnome","provider":"Re Embroidery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
