Ten years ago, my house in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, flooded in an unnamed freak storm, and it was awful. Lost almost everything, AND I was 10 weeks pregnant. The knitting community stepped up in a big way to help out- so many people bought patterns, many of you mailed me yarn to replace what I lost, yarn dyers made special colorways for me- it was all amazing. To say thank you, I’d like to offer 50% off all of my patterns, from now until Wednesday, August 19th. Use coupon code FLOOD. I love knitters (and crocheters!). You’re all incredible.

Everyone has a special place in their heart for gnomes. Your special place can be around your neck, as well! This adorable scarf is knit in a textured stitch with intarsia pockets on each end. Don’t like intarsia? Try duplicate stitch for a quick way to complete a scarf that will elicit comments for many seasons to come.
