I really love the patterns by Ellie & Mac. I have made a few dresses and tops. They recently released a pattern for a gnome, and I made one up. He is so cute! It was nice to use up some scraps. The sewing part was easy, the hot glue gun got me good. 
Follow me on my yarn adventures as I attempt to use up my stash, one lonely yarn ball at a time.
