Tiny Things

Tiny Yeti

See this post for the winning rhymes by Laura and Mariette!

I took a quick break from piano knitting this morning to fashion this snowy little guy!

I don’t know if yetis typically have horns, but this one told me he needed them for opening cans of beans.

Let’s put a twist on our regular caption contest, and have a Tiny Yeti Rhyme-off! Give us your cutest, scariest, silliest Tiny Yeti rhyme in the comments, and we’ll pick our favorite on Monday to win…

A Tiny Santa Kit!

Tiny Wreath

Winning caption by Lydia:

A knitter allergic to holiday greens
Wanted a wreath for her door.
She started to knit like a knitting machine,
Sitting while knitting some more.
But when it was finished
Excitement diminished
As she went berserk as she looked at her work:
Instead of using a proper-size yarn
She had knitted with finger-weight yarn!
This wreath, on her door, could barely be seen!
So in frustration,
In pure desperation,
She decided to knit a nativity scene.

Today’s Tiny Mochi was inspired by our first place winner in the photo contest!

This little guy might not show up so well on your front door, but he still wants to bring holiday cheer somehow!

It’s time for a Tiny Wreath caption contest! Leave your caption in the comments to this post (one per person please), and we’ll pick our favorite on Monday to win…

This guy is in favor of clubbing with seals. They really know how to party!

Don’t forget to come back Monday for honorable mentions from the Mochimochi Photo Contest!

Tiny Tree Stump

He likes to think that being a stump makes him look distinguished. At least, that’s what that nice lumberjack told him….

No caption contest this weekend—we hope many of you are working on entries for the Mochimochi Photo Contest instead! Deadline is Monday (Nov 21st)!
