So far this year I have made two or three of each of your animals and this past week sent them up to church to be placed in boxes for Operation Christmas Child. These are boxes that we place school supplies, some clothing and hygiene supplies along with a few toys. They are then sent out to children at Christmas time that would other wise receive no Christmas presents. The ladies packing the boxes this week just raved over your patterns. Thank you so much for offering up these patterns, I do tell the ladies and anyone that compliments them where they can find your site. I just wanted to let you know that you are putting smiles on children's faces somewhere around the world.

That is sooooooooo awesome! What a beautiful thing you are doing. We have the Christmas boxes here to in Canada so I know exactly what you are doing, and the joy you are going to be bring to the children that receive them. Many blessings to you and yours. ❤️😊❤️

Just completed a second one using your pattern, but different yarn colors for each one. The first I gave to my Mom on Mother's Day, and she really liked it! The second I kept for myself. I embellished the second one with crochet flowers, and braided three yarn colors for what's tied around the brim. Really like how it turned out. Thanks!

Hello Rhonda, Ms C's Cottage Diana recommended your channel. i've saved this to watch later x

Hi there. Just wanted to comment that I really enjoyed how you did these gnomes. I am not a beginner, but have never seen it done this way. I have made several different kinds of gnomes, and your technique of working the hat, body and arms into one piece is genius ! It helped so much in the secure placement of everything. My first one turned out so cute that I plan to make more for our swedish festival in our community in the colors of the swedish flag. Thanks for your great tutorial. (This may be a dumb question, but eek, I don't know how to get the print version.) :)

@@aussiegrace to be honest I have no idea what sizes the different plys are. What I go by what is on the yarn label. it says #4 medium weight in a box by the recommended hook size. I used to assume it was how many strands were twisted together, but I have #2 baby yarn and there is definitely 4 strands in it not 2. But you should be able to use most yarns, if you change your hook size. (Smaller for smaller yarn, larger for thicker yarn) I will just affect the over all size.
