Gnomes

Okay, so I have a thing for gnomes. They are supposed to be good luck when put in a garden, so naturally, I would think they would be good luck when placed around the house as well, right? In response to my partiality to the little dudes, I have several clay gnomes inside, a gnome background I've created ....

.... as well as several others outside, oh, and my flannel gnome pajamas. These are getting slightly threadbare, and Nick & Nora need to come out with another pattern featuring my favourite lawn ornament. Tonight, however, I might have topped myself. I don't know if I'm going to feature these in the shop or not, but I have found (and bought... can't believe I actually paid for this with all the free ones that are out there - no gnomes though) a pattern for a knit gnome dishcloth. YIPPEEEEE!
One of those random things that I am really excited about getting started after I get through the madness that has become Christmas. I have figured that I pretty much need to get a project done every day. Yikes. I also found several free patterns for toy gnomes... uh-oh :)
