Baa-realis Fibre and Imagined Landscapes
Who's ready for a fun Spring Gnome along??
Gneddy is comfortable with comfort. She's learned that its est not to take life too seriously. Her hat collection isn't large compared to most gnomes, but she prizes playful expression and seeks out hats that make her smile. Gneddy spends every moment she can outside, even when frosty moments mean cold hands.
Join us as we gnit a gnome and enjoy the whimsy of another MKAL with Imagined Landscapes. You can get all the details about the pattern and the process here...
Now, are you ready to see the yarn???
This year I did four sets on the sock weight tweed base so many of you have been loving, and one set on a regular merino nylon sock base. These tweed sets are full of classic Beary Cozy vibes. Each set comes with a beary good dark brown, a white, and then you pick your contrasting colour based on what sort of whimsy you love most. Light Brown, Yellow, Blue or Pink give you lots of options for a gnome that's just your taste and style.
I wanted to offer a second option that was quite different from the first. I was brainstorming colourways during the Olympics, and decided a very Canadian gnome sounded like a great idea. That being said, these colours have all sorts of different vibes, depending on how you look at them... Work Sock, Sock Monkey, Buffalo Plaid, or just cozy cabin in the woods.
A note to our friends in the USA... Unfortunately shipping to the US is still on hold for right now. I know, I'm sad about it too, just it's just where we're at right now. Maybe instead of buying my yarn this time around, you can find another small business near you to support. These sure are hard times for small businesses, and they could use all the support you're able to offer!
