Are we ready for another gnome???
Imagined Landscapes is hosting a gnome along during May, featuring Gnoddy, the adorable earflap toque gnome from her book, The Gnomes of Grimblewoods. You can get more details here...
We all know how I feel about tweed, and if any gnome gneeded tweed, it was Gnoddy...
So, here are the colours I choose for Gnoddy. They are dyed on a superwash tweed base, and I have to say they're my favourite combination I've made in a while. Such tweedy joy!
I also have quite a few other gnome kits in stock too, from monthly installments of Year of Gnomes, and the April Professor Fungi gnomes, and many of those would work really well for Gnoddy as well. Can I just point out how PERFECT the Buffalo Plaid kit would be for him....????
I'm looking forward to this knit along, full of zoom meetings, check ins, and a whole lot of low stress gnome-y fun. See you there! Here's a link to alllll the gnome kits you'll need!

Here we gnome again... It's time for another MKAL. This time with a mushroom theme!!
This time around I pulled my inspiration from some fantastic mushroom photos that show off some of the beautiful colours and variations in this part of nature.
I took two of these photos (the purple one and the brown one), my sister in law took the yellow one, and the red one was taken by a customer who sent it in to me.
Also, every time I do gnome sets, I get asked the same question... "Are you doing the Buffalo Plaid again???"
So... here it is...

Don't worry, I won't clutter up your inbox, just a few pretty yarn pics once a month or less. Or sheep pics. Or yarn in nature. Or yarn and sheep. Or... well, you get the idea. And be sure to post pictures of your gnomes on Ravelry and Instagram! Tag #baarealisfibre on Instagram and add Baa-realis Fibre sock yarn on your Ravelry project page so I can see what amazing things you make! Also, use the hashtag #NeverNotGnoming to share your gnome with the whole gnome community!

This photo was taken by Julia Pickens at the Quaking Bog Trail in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Thanks Julia for sending this in! (And for the rest of you... did you know that if I use your photo as inpiration, that I send you free yarn?? How's that for incentive to start sending me pics!?! I'm always looking for more to base my monthly Year of Gnomes kits on!)
