King Cole Tinsel & Glitz DK Gonks Knitting Pattern 9230 includes five charming festive gonks to knit in a mix of Tinsel Chunky, Glitz DK and Big Value DK 50g. With their sparkly textures, cheerful characters and seasonal details, these gonks make perfect handmade decorations for Christmas displays, gifts and winter crafting.

This pattern features five designs ranging from 22cm to 32cm in height: a Christmas Tree Gonk, Santa Gonk, Mrs Santa Gonk, Snowman Gonk and Reindeer Gonk. Each character has its own personality, created through simple shaping, fun colour combinations and the eye‑catching tinsel effect of King Cole’s speciality yarns. The mix of Tinsel Chunky and Glitz DK gives each gonk a soft, sparkly finish that stands out beautifully in festive décor.

You will need 3.5mm and 4mm knitting needles, with an additional 3mm needle required for the Christmas Tree Gonk. All designs are stuffed with toy filling to give them their plump, standing shape. The pattern is suitable for confident beginners and experienced knitters alike, with clear instructions and straightforward construction.
