Knitted Gnome Workshop Feb 22 - 1:00-4:30 PM

Saturday, Feb 22  1:00 - 4:30 PM

Location:  Denison Store: 101 East Main Street Ste. 111 Denison, Texas 75021

Gnomes! Sara Schira's knitted gnome patterns are delightful and irresistible. In this workshop you will make one of the gnomes from her Never Not Gnoming pattern from start to finish.

The pattern is written for sock/fingering weight yarn, but you can use any weight yarn. The thicker the yarn, the larger the gnome!

You will learn how to make and attach a knitted beard, nose, and arms. 

The pattern is included in the cost of the class. 

Required Materials:

• Yarn in three colors of your choice of either worsted or sock weight.
• Knitting needles for either sock or worsted weight yarn in the round (DPNs, Flexiflips, two circulars, or magic loop): For sock yarn, the pattern recommends US #2.5 and #2 needles. For worsted weight yarn I use #6 and #5.
• Darning needle

Level: Intermediate Beginner. Students must be able to knit small pieces in the round using DPNs, two circular needles, or magic loop.

Minimum # Students: 2
Maximum # Students: 6

Cost: $35

Instructor: Emilie Petty

Emilie Petty learned to knit by teaching herself from a boxed set of book and needles. Once she figured out that knitting smooth yarn was preferable to learn on, knitting became an immediate addiction. Nothing was out of limits for her. She believed that taking on a new project was a chance to learn something new.

Emilie became a part of the Quixotic Fibers Family when, after visiting the shop three days in a row and joking about working, Curtis offered her a job. We haven’t been able to get rid of her since.
