Loved by makers worldwide I'm Trish, and I'm the fat lady behind Fat Lady Crochet.
I've been crocheting since 1999, when I learned the craft while working in the remote forest of Northern Alberta. Since picking up the hook all those years ago, I've taken my craft and turned it into an art and business.

Long Dog finds out that what he originally thinks is a dirt-noodle, is actually a little worm friend named Stan. Stan helps keep the soil healthy which impresses Long Dog since he's a big fan of the strawberries in the garden.
Did you see the comic?
The pattern for Stan comes with this Long Dog pattern pack add-on.

Here are all the pattern add-ons for our Mankini Gnome. Do you have a favourite? I really love the original (middle) but I also loves the valentines dude and our roller disco king.
These will all be put into a collection eventually but for now you can get the individual add-ons. Pattern link in comments ππΌ

Kristy Serrano, I need you to message me so I can send you a free copy of this pattern. We can all thank Kristy for suggesting roller skates for Mankini Gnome... the skates I posted last week were not for him, but the question I have yet to answer is, how could I not have thought of this?! I believe this might be my favourite outfit for our Mankini Gnome yet. It's all the right things - rainbows AND roller skates with just a smidge of ridiculous! If you want to dress up your gnome, this pattern pack is ready for you!

So Long Dog ends up having a little worm pal named Stan. The comic strip of this development will be coming out pretty soon, but just a heads up that we included the pattern for Stan when you buy the Long Dog Gardening Suit add-on. Hey, we all need a wormy friend!
