Weave a gnome mascot for your favorite football team. He’s so cute, your friends and family may want one, too! No worries, because this football fan gnome is really easy to make. The PDF step-by-step tutorial will show you how.
For example, the little football that the gnome is holding is made from a 2″x4″ rectangle. We have 4 photos that show you how to fold, tuck and sew it into the iconic football shape.
