I am tentatively dedicating the month of July to the knitting of tiny things. I don’t have a plan for these tiny things except to challenge myself to make as many new ones as I can. Because everyone loves tiny things!
The first tiny thing is a Tiny Brain.
He thinks he’s so much smarter than me because he didn’t just spend the last two hours knitting something small and inconsequential.
Update: Thank you to Becky at the CRAFT Blog for posting the brain!
I think he’s adorable! Finally, someone can actually love someone because of their cute brain!
That is amazing! I need a brain. Is there any sort of pattern/guideline to it? I have at the moment two ruffles joined together for the hemispheres of the brain I’m making, but that one looks awesome, better than mine.
Ruffles seem like a good technique to use. I made a really long I-cord and bunched it up, tacking it together as I went.
Depending on how the “tiny” project goes, it’s possible that I’ll put together some of the tiny designs as a combo pattern pack later. We’ll see!
Who was the model?
You mean the hand? That’s my hand.
How could you NOT love a tiny knitted brain? It’s adorable! I hope you do a tiny pattern (maybe pack???) I’d LOVE it! I wish I could see more of what your inspiration is - even if it’s a notepad with scribbles. I just love seeing the process as well as the finished result. Super cute tiny toy brain!
Oh my gosh! That is so cute!
lol! so *that’s* where my cat’s brain went, we’ve been looking everywhere……..
Use an extra loop of yarn and put it on a keychain, or cellphone charm, or zipper pull…
Or make a charm bracelet out of a themed group (or not) of Tinys.
Kari, I do have a notebook full of scribbles, but they’re pretty ugly! Unlike my toys, my drawings are very not cute, so I try to hide it from everyone.
It’s turned out to be a little funny that I made a brain today, because I’ve had a headache for most of the day after finishing it!
Was this inspired by Plants vs. Zombies, by any chance?
I love the tiny little brain! These would make great additions (with a bit of a brain stem) to zipper pulls everywhere!
hee! I love his snarky little face.
ROFL!! Good lord, you crack me up! I wish I had a fraction of your creativity!
A tiny brain… CUTE! Did you know 4 out of 3 people admit they are not good at fractions?
It is lovely. The idea of a combo of tiny knits is a wonderful one, as I’m currently addicted to my 2 mm dpns.
yet again i must tell you how much i love your knitting!
you are hilarious and i love you
xoxo
loooolllll!
Omg! How is it you can come up with such cute things? xD I love him! He’s adorable! (ok, I’ll stop using exclamation marks now…!!!)
