Floralsilk Autumn Pumpkin Gonk

This adorable Floralsilk Autumn Pumpkin Gonk is a Scandi-inspired decoration said to bring good luck to your home. The small and mighty ornament has a green tartan style body with knitted hands and feet. He is finished with a matching knitted pumpkin hat, stem and all.

The original folklore says that these curious little creatures have a preference for barns and houses during the cold seasons. If families treated them well, it was told that they would protect the family and bring them good luck. However, if the family did not treat them well and respect the creatures, they were said to play tricks on the family. The underlying message is to be welcoming and hospitable.
