The kind woman worked her magic and turned the yarn into two fanciful gnomes, perfect for wee hands.
She spent the morning selling her goods at the market, where a neighboring family purchased a gift for their newest son. The baby giggled with glee at the little gnomes... and they all lived happily ever after.
~The End~
The kind woman from Vermont can be found on Etsy as the knittingmomma and also on her blog Plain & Joyful Living where she writes about living simply with six children!
