These sets have been put together with the We Three Gnomes Christmas gnome knit a long from Imagined Landscapes in mind but they can be used for anything your heart desires.
These sets contain 3 x 20g mini skeins on the smooth sock base. The smooth sock is superwash 75% merino and 25% nylon blend and beautiful to work with. Each 4ply mini skein is approx 85m in length giving you a total of 255m per set of three minis.
As a participating dyer Sarah has let me see the finished gnomes to enable me to create sets for this MKAL. Each mini skein will be labelled so you can tell which skein is planned for C1, C2 and C3. Obviously this is just a little bit of guidance and you can switch them around if you wish.
Set 1 is Silver, green and undyed
Set 2 is Mid blue, blues and silver
Set 3 is Plum, pinks and silver
The patterns are available from Sarah's website https://www.imaginedlandscapes.com/wee-three-gnomes

THIS LISTING IS JUST FOR THE YARN - PATTERNS ARE NOT INCLUDED
Due to the nature of hand dyed yarns and methods used, no two skeins are identical, even when dyed together within the same dye lot. If using more than one skein in a project we recommend alternating skeins every few rows to ensure even colour throughout your project.
Each skein has been hand dyed using professional grade colourfast dyes. Yarn is rinsed thoroughly in plain water, (we do not use soaps or soaks, scented or otherwise) but a small amount of colour run may occur during the first wash, especially if a soap or soak is used. Although this yarn is superwash and can be machine washed on a cool or wool setting, hand washing is recommended in cool/lukewarm water then lay flat to dry. All yarn bases have been ethically sourced and are cruelty free (non-mulesing)
We always try to accurately represent yarn colours but due to monitor variations the colours may vary slightly from screen to screen. Our photos are taken in natural light.
We are a smoke free, pet friendly household. All our yarns are stored away from our pets and every care is taken to ensure our pets do not come into contact with the yarn.
