This week’s ornament is made up of two fun holiday characters, a gingerbread and a snowman. Make them back to back or into two different ornaments. Psst… Some of you might be wondering if you are having deja vu. I didn’t realize that I released TWO patterns for week #21. My brain got a little […]

Ornament Quest #12: Granny Square Stocking Ornament
I love granny squares so when I stumbled across this amazing “Granny Square Stocking” a few years ago it was an instant favorite.

This snowflake is going to make a nice addition to our collection and I love that the pattern calls for worsted weight yarn and a G hook!
