Someone To Write Gnome About

It’s time for another gnome mystery knitalong! Someone To Write Gnome About is a pattern with simple knitting for a knock-out gnome.

Multiple tutorial videos are included in the knitalong.

Gnock wants to be a professional hammock tester when she grows up. In summer, she likes to read biographies while swinging gently in her hammock. She finds the contrast between their exploits and her state of relaxation heightens the experience.

Materials

Someone To Write Gnome About is written for fingering weight yarn.

Yarn 2: 50g solid or semi-solid yarn, possibly subtly speckled but keep this calm so your self-striping/variegated can strut its stuff
