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-testonly.googleusercontent.com/blogger_img_proxy/AEn0k_vQ1qCIXt98l-1w6MiRr1ZFL66XIU6flGu7SdATqnRN9D22q_KadVG_7sWkl6M3fx-JAaESuzJ_a18z4RRG0wfeT5nFOgsebI_a4-1T2EmWHyFBkZa9=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-testonly.googleusercontent.com/blogger_img_proxy/AEn0k_s89hDkBsrzFVOnOK7lUgSW0l5jWOJvlosVhNjGhllkiyVkst7-ed31bm9EVz62CVIWi-t1Ak_eFR4asBdZfI7K_KpmHmDCFg2cNQV9k5lFGtQHzpi65Q=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.
