How to connect to work SVN repository from home via SSH tunnel

Question

Apologies, but I have searched and read previous answers on this question but couldn't quite figure out how to solve my particular query. I think the following question was close but again I couldn't figure it out!

Access SVN server from machine on work subnet via an SSH tunnel

My scenario:

At work I connect to an SVN repository on host frodo via svn protocol i.e. svn://frodo

I do not have SSH access to frodo.

My work PC is behind a NAT router and as such does not have public IP address. (It's IP is similar to 172.1.1.1)

I can however SSH from my work PC to my home PC, the hostname is aruba.myexample.org

Can I use SSH to connect from my work PC to my home PC and also forward to the SVN repo on frodo?

I used the SSH -L command to forward from my work PC to frodo, however I become stuck when trying to setup ports on my home PC (aruba.myexample.org)

I am sure it is possible?

TIA

Ayub
