New Sara Schira Gnome MKAL coming in April

Gneddy is comfortable with comfort. She’s learned that it's best 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.

There is a new Gnome MKAL (the Beary Cozy Gnome) from Sarah Schira starting on April 15th.

You’ll get 5 updates during April. These will tell you what to work on next. 

There will be video tutorials for all the parts I think you might want help with. I want this to be all joy, no worries.

Because Gneddy a mystery gnomes, I can't tell you much about her. The 'skills used' listed below will give you a bit of a sense of what you'll be doing. It's all just knitting, and you'll be great at it. Plus wonkiness is gnominess. 

There will be a thread on Ravelry to share pictures and ask questions for each clue, as well as a picture-free thread for people who want to ask questions without seeing anything.

Grab your copy on Ravelry or Payhip today! You'll get access to a PreKnitalong PDF you can download right away with all sorts of information, colour tips, and links. 

Emma’s has put together kits using Practically Perfect Sock minis. These kits will arrive in time for the start of the MKAL. They are online for preorder.









I think the store is in order for Lynn. I have a few price signs to make tonight. My printer in the store wouldn’t print on card stock today. 🤬 I kept trying and the paper kept jamming and I kept getting angrier and angrier. 

My main chore tonight is winding yarn. I’m taking my Happy Camp Sweater with me and have since decided that I might need another project. Just in case I don’t want to carry around the sweater or I need knitting that doesn’t require following a chart. I’m taking Dream State to make a Traveler Cowl. It is the perfect project for vacation knitting.

My colour choice is Reckless Abandon. A nice springy colour.

I will try and blog everyday but cruise life could get in the way. Have a good week and I’ll be back in the store on the 30th ready to ship orders.
