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_tinXI4C4D4H2zq4GrJFkMZwCRaD5Je5cPK20_23ebzgURUtehuWraP5UKYYpK7pri67FLClA-AYICk9o-DSb_exlUGHt9Bh41NpKLXcTgicQqhI9Vv=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_su33f-An6LDVZWQxOzpldRg87W19OKo8XX3h1xhm3C46fbcYNk7d9HAQJ1Fsh4Nu5yIF2shjOISgBh7D6uiyQieVakiTnCzf2jQuIoGiknentVbJEfiw=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.
