Gnome Sweet Gnome CAL - Q1 2024
   Rewards: Up to 5 stars

Craft-A-Long Details:

• Pattern Choices: Your choice of any knit or crochet pattern that utilizes gnomes.
• CAL Dates: Jan. 1 - Mar. 31st

This is a multi-pattern craft-a-long that starts on January 1st, 2024 and runs through March 31st. Choose any knit or crochet pattern that is or includes a gnome! This includes everything from wee stuffed gnomes to gnome mittens to sweaters with a gnome embroidered on it - Gnome Sweet Gnome is a celebration of all things gnome in our garden.

You can use any gnome pattern for this craft-a-long. We often get questions about whether individual patterns count as specific techniques, and we urge you to use your very best judgment and choose a pattern that meets the spirit of the craft-a-long to you. Your submitted project or projects should give you the satisfaction of having created something with a gnome. If you are still unsure whether or not a pattern utilizes a gnome or not, please select a pattern from this bundle of pre-screened gnome patterns.

This craft-a-long officially begins on the first of January. First, choose your pattern! Pick your yarn, maybe even get ambitious and do a swatch, and cast-on with your fellow ESKers in the Ravelry thread. When your project is done, head to your Progress Dashboard to submit your project and get your stars. Submissions need to be completed before April 1st to qualify.

Prizes: All 2024 CALs have six size options to allow everyone to play. You'll earn more stars the larger your project is. You can combine as many projects as you'd like - just wait to submit until all your projects for the CAL are done.

Requirements for ALL craft-a-longs:

• All yarn should come from Eat.Sleep.Knit except for minor embellishments
• All projects should start on or after the start date for the craft-a-long and be completed and submitted before the end of the quarter unless another date is specified.
• All projects should use the patterns or themes specified by the individual craft-a-long requirements
• All projects completed within the craft-a-long calendar timeframe will be eligible for the Ravelry prize drawings for that craft-a-long.
