You are correct

Its a tomte or vätte, most commonly translated to goblin but more similar to house spirit. Impregnerad is the swedish word of "impregrated by something", used about tent cloth, boots or other items, very rarely about creatures where the words gravid or havande is used.

English also stole "gravid" from Latin, but it usually refers to egg-laying animals.

However many legs they have.
