Gray and charcoal gnomes.

Inspired by Nordic Christmas gnomes, I wanted to create some that were similar in appearance, but a bit more modern. Here is my version of these burly winter characters...

To make each of their coats, I upcycled a soft light gray knit sweater that I picked up at the thrift store, meanwhile the hats were sewn from a short-haired faux fur fabric that has a silver sheen on its surface. Inside each hat is a wire that can be used to adjust and shape the hat into many different positions.
