There’s something about a tiny wool gnome that is hard not to love.

This kit includes everything you need to make all three gnomes, each with its own colors and personality. The simple shapes make them approachable, while the hats, beards, glass eyes, and finishing details give you plenty of room to make each one feel a little different.

The variegated wool is especially fun in this project because the natural shifts in color add depth without requiring you to blend multiple shades yourself.

The wool comes from sheep raised on our North Dakota farm and is processed in our own Bear Creek Felting fiber mill. It is the same kind of wool I use for my own sculptural felting because it firms beautifully and holds detail well.

No previous needle felting, sewing, knitting, or crocheting experience is needed.

Product Details

 FROM PASTURE TO PRODUCT 

From Our Flock to Your Hands 

At Bear Creek Felting, our story begins on our North Dakota sheep farm, where I've been carefully breeding sheep for their felting wool since 2005. From choosing the right breeding stock to caring for our flock, every decision is made with wool quality in mind.

Just a few miles from the farm, we wash, dye, and card our wool in small batches at our Fort Ransom fiber mill. It's a hands-on process that allows us to pay close attention to the quality of the fiber we share with you.

Whether you're creating your first needle-felted animal or adding to a growing collection, my goal is to provide beautiful materials and tools that make your felting experience a joy.

I absolutely Love this project. The wool felt so nice. The directions were easy to follow. The wool felting pad was nice to work with, but did slip around on my lap desk I use. This is a high quality product. I will definitely be shopping at this shop again.

Complete kit with great product and easy to follow instructions. There is something meditative and stress reducing about stabbing something hundreds of times. One bit of feedback - unless I missed the option, it would be great to include a needle handle. The bandaids were a nice touch. Not sure if I made them big enough - there was plenty leftover so I made a lady too.

First timer. This is like sculpture with wool. I love this! Directions were great, you can make your work unique as you go.

It took a while to get here - but after the postal service was attacked and a pandemic it’s not anyone’s fault (well, it IS someone’s fault but we all know who). The instructions are BEAUTIFUL. And enough roving I can fabricate a little extra something on my own. This little gnome was SO FUN to make and I am now hooked on this hobby. Thank you kindly!

I have ordered cheap, foreign kits in the past. Virtually no instruction- I had to toss them as it was impossible to complete. These kits are AMAZING! Clear instructions, everything is in the box and the quality is absolutely amazing. I’m so excited to start this journey!
