The measure of a man, er, gnome...
BF and I (and BF's socks) are back from Utah. It was fantastic, and I wish we had pictures, but we'd FORGOTTEN THE CAMERA. Argh. All throughout the week you'd hear either one of us say, "You know, I wish we brought the..." "Shut up about it ALREADY!" We were 40 miles in the middle of nowhere, no point in going into the nearest town and buying some crappy little paper box camera, so we just tried to enjoy the view. Needless to say, we'll be heading back in October. I went to a mini-meetup yesterday; BF painted some of the Utah scenery from memory. I'm trying to scrounge up some material for a more substantial post, so in the meantime you'll just have to do with more gnomey bits.

This hat is tall. Taller than the bowling pin body. And a bee-yatch to seam. That does it, I'm bringing out the dpns next time!

Oh boy, that is one CUTE hat. I can't wait to see your gnome, he's going to be heart wrenchingly cute.
oh my, that video of the snake... !!!!!
and delicatessen is one of my fave movies of all time. so so great, and the saw music is haunting. now i have a hankering to see it again, yay.
;) great to see you yesterday - that was a ton of fun.
the gnome is going to be cute!
I am loathe to admit this, but the hat is *almost* enough to get me to knit a gnome.
MJ!
i desperately want to make a gnome! i'm an idiot and couldn't figure out for the life of me how to join the knitalong, nor where to find the knitsimple mag that had the pattern. i feel like a small helpless child, but i still want one! any tips? where'd you buy your pattern?
That was so gross. I'm a little disturbed...
But the gnome is going to be adorable!
I'm lovin the gnome hat...too CUTE.
I love the gnome hat. I went to link to sign up, but it will not forward my email. Can you send me a copy of the pattern or directions on how to sign up in English. Thank you so much.
