My latest crochet obsession. It all started with a search on Etsy, and some patterns I bought and downloaded (and I may have to go back for seconds because SQUEEEEE!!). It reminds me of ALL the birds I crocheted a couple of years ago, and I even pulled out my tub of cotton yarn to use on these guys. When I did the stacking ring toys, the sheep I did in the cotton yarn was much more stable with the stuffing than the acrylic ones, so I looked through for Christmassy skeins.

| Snowgnomes!!! |
I've added string to these to hang them, as they are intended to be ornaments. I got a few different trim things to use for hangers, but I'm not satisfied with those, so more experimentation will follow. I love the hats. I love the huge carrot noses. I love the little twiggy arms. And this is only ONE of the patterns that I got!
There are also some gnome nutcracker ornaments, and Santa gnomes with trees for hats. But I had to start with the snowgnomes. Can you blame me?

Besides the Christmas flavored snowgnomes, I am going to make some Wintery snowgnomes as well and some that are just perfectly happy to hang around to make someone smile. Like me. They definitely make me smile!
