Stephanie of Tiny Owl Knits tells a cautionary tale with a twist..."These 
gnomes 
ate my
 double pointed needles!
  Naughty naughty gnomes…but wait? hmmm. kinda handy.  Gnome Homes have hats that pop up & snap back down with elastic and reveal a set of dpns tucked safely inside.  The gnomes are felted, (but they don't mind, they needed a bath anyway.)  Plus, they are a LOT easier to make than they look.  Let
 the 
gnomes 
help 
you 
organize 
those 
little 
sticks."
