The pattern for the Scandinavian gnome uses the loop stitches in rows.

Christmas is soon here (where did the time go?) Many people are visiting the Scandinavian gnome pattern so I decided to look over it again. When I editing the pattern for the gnome this morning, I’ve realised that I didn’t have a video on how to make the loop stitches in the rows, only in rounds. So I just did a quick video and you can watch in below. I actually did the video with my Iphone and the quality is quite good! Normally I do it with my Fujifilm camera, but I decided to see how it is to make a video with the phone today. Let me know what you think in the comments below.
