Thank you so much for these patterns! I appreciate them.

I love your patterns. Thanks for them
Your patterns are lovely! Just found your website-very calm and peaceful. thanks for the freebies!
I love the patterns , I will add them to my line up of things to knit. Thank you.
Hi,
thank you for the gnome egg cozys, I knit two for our Easter breakfast eggs and for future use (in my ravelry projects).
I have to admit though, that I was a little confused by how you placed the knit rows. I saw too late that #4 is a decrease row and not just knit, as 3-5 knit stands before row 4, but then it is row 6-9 after row 4. Why not row 5-9 after row 4? Same with the 17-22 knit instructions.
It worked out, of course, but as I saw that too late and I was not frogging them, they look a little different. I think they are still very cute, thank you again for the pattern.
Thanks for posting such cute free patterns! I’m looking forward to making a pair of fingerless gloves, but Gnorman Egg Cozy almost makes me wish I ate hard boiled eggs and had a need to keep them toasty it’s sooooooo sweet!
