Ganomy!
Ganomy Photos are finally in!! I took a few shots of this project that was completed in December and gifted to my roommate for christmas. I'm just now getting around to documenting some on-head pictures. (apologies for lack of better light. i wanted to wait for natural light for the shoot, but that would have meant waiting till next weekend at the earliest... ![Ganomy Side 1](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/blogger_img_proxy/AEn0k_tbuSsNFUrD9Usa5oshDundJ1VgVTr1CkHpdccsvfDCB8ePStLpzwPHgi5j4sTszoeIfNxgkuRAGPEw-EXKO0v_XQ-erHvw8ooVFci3zv_FUgTyfkcQ=s0-d)
A few notes about the pattern: very simple and creative, yields a really cool design. I made a few modifications, mainly adding in some extra decreasing at the top to keep it from becoming too pointy. if you follow the pattern exactly, you'll have more of a 'gnome point' on top (the pattern also is written to include a bobble-like pom-pom with a ping-pong ball inside!). i like a point thats a bit more subtle. I also did a seed stitch brim which i think looks pretty good.![Ganomy Decreases 1](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/blogger_img_proxy/AEn0k_vwm7EgNAB0fTMsRANH4yR_wA90p2WcTBOi7ZxgqAQBOTqtk_jseXFl9zO9qbS09ro8rDtXfSb0KPMb9SBXrq_4baDJ7saG1n2rMFadLfiP7IQgaEudcA=s0-d)

I'm definitely planning on making one for myself in the near future. Possibly in Karabella's Aurora Bulky. Hope you enjoy the photos - i definitely recommend the pattern for anyone in a knitting slump.
