Tiny Pirate

Winning caption by Gargoylegrl:

A tiny pirate I may be,
I’m nae much larger than a flea,
but I know me alphabet by far,
especially me ‘aye’s an ‘arrr’s!

Sometimes I feel like I’ve already knitted everything under the sun, and then I think of something super obvious that I haven’t yet made. So last night a knitted tiny pirate came into being!

Because a tiny pirate is on a very fishy diet, the winner will get the Tiny Sushi Bar patterns !

  12. There is still something under the sun that you haven’t knitted: a flamingo!

  15. Tiny pirate walks into a bar. (He has a wooden eye) he sees the beauty of a pegleg barmaiden, forgets his motives of getting rum, and asks her if shed like to dance.”would I?!?!” (Pronounced ‘wood eye’) she responds gleefully. Taking offends to whet he thought was a snide remark concerning his lack of eye, he storms out of the bar, spitting “peg leg!>) over his shoulder.

  17. There once was a miniature pirate,
    Who hated seafood; never tried it.
    He thought it was gross, the sight made him repulsed,
    And the health benefits, he didn’t buy it.

    The the food on ship ran one day ran out;
    The pirate fussed and began to pout.
    Thought it wouldn’t be fun,
    But once dinner was done,
    He found ” Yummy” was all he could shout.
