Tiny Fairy

Posted on by Anna

Winning caption by Amanda:
Periwinkle Sparkletoes
Fluttering on by your snoring nose
Hither and thether
Light as a feather
She sneaks a quick kiss on your cheek
And takes off with your teeth!
But don’t worry my good fellow
There’s money under your pillow!

A Tiny Fairy has it rough—most people don’t even believe in her! Maybe we can help boost this little lady’s self-esteem by giving her a caption that describes her unique fairy-ness.

Leave your Tiny Fairy caption in the comments to this post (one per person, please), and on Monday we’ll pick our favorite to win…

an adorable Hello Kitty tape measure from Tomo and Timo!

Thank you to Tomo of Tomo and Timo for contributing the prize again this time!

  7. To show belief in a tiny fairy requires not full hand claps (too big and scary!) but the gentle snapping of two fingers.

    (Also, will this be a pattern soon (or available already)? I have many little girls in my life who need a pocket fairy!)

  8. every time a stitch counter rings, a fairy gets her knitted wings!

    (clicks = rings, right? it’s a stretch, i know!)

  11. Even the tiniest of fairies can grant the biggest of wishes and tote the smallest of baby teeth!

  12. I am the New Year’s Knitting Knympth
    or
    I am the Finnishing Fairy
    Sent to help all knitters finish
    their Works in Progress

  15. Who has fairy dusts which lets you fly,
    Who sprinkles glitters so that you don’t cry,
    And by night usually,
    Changes tooth for pennies,
    None other than Mary the Fairy.

    Who blooms flowers come morning,
    Who sang songs so very endearing,
    Best friends with Tinker Bell,
    And also Anabelle,
    None other than Mary the Fairy.

  16. Periwinkle sparkletoes
    Fluttering on by your snoring nose
    Hither and thether
    Light as a feather
    She sneaks a quick kiss on your cheek
    And takes off with your teeth!
    But don’t worry my good fellow
    There’s money under your pillow!

  18. Loving the captions so far – keep them coming!

    And yes, I do plan to make a pattern for her!

  19. She may not seem to look like the best fairy in the whole galexy. But Tiny Fairy and her inner spirit to make people happy, she has already done it. Not by granting wishes but just glancing at her look of determination to make everyone happy in this galaxy.

  21. She may not seem like the best fairy in the whole galaxy. But Tiny Fairy and her inner spirit to make people happy, well she has already done it. Not by granting your wishes but by just glancing at her look of determination in order to do so.

  23. When the first sock ever was knitted, the joy of creating it broke into a thousand pieces and they all began skipping about, and that was the beginning of knitted fairies. And now when a new sock is knitted, a knitted fairy is made.

    ( A pretty bad attempt at rewriting Peter Pan’s explanation of fairies. x) )

  25. “Don’t worry Cinderella, you will have a dress for the ball, just let me bibbidi-bobbidi-bind off”

  28. Tiny Fairy knows that people have to see to believe but she is still trying to schedule her photo shoot!

  29. I was just pondering a few things about Knitted Fairies…

    Instead of Fairy Dust, does she have Fairy Yarn Scraps?

    Instead of granting wishes does she grant stitches?

    Instead of helping children fly does she help them knit?

    Does she leave yarn under your pillow instead of money?

    Instead of a wand does she have magic knitting needles?

  31. Tiny Fairy comes when you loose a tooth,

    She comes when you need a little pixie dust,

    Everyone knows the truth,

    Tiny Fairy is small, but robust,

    Don’t underestimate her,

    Sometimes she’s may be just a blur,

    But in the end, Tiny Fairy will concur!

  32. Fingerlina the Tiny Fairy dances on a knitted rose,

    And guides all knitters in her care through all their knit chart woes.

    She helps cover the people from their heads to their toes,

    Inspiring all knitters, through the world she goes.

  37. Tiny Knitted Fairy:
    is married to Gary
    has a pet canary
    loves to drink sherry
    is best friends with Mary
    dislikes eating dairy
    is the size of a berry
    and grows rosemary!

  39. Everytime someone says that they dont believe in fairies a fairy becomes unwound. The only thing to cure her is the clocking of needles. C’mon everyone clock away!

    Dadgum spell checker! Should be clicking and click not clock. At least it didnt put in a naughty word.

  41. Oh fairy fairy floating by
    please grant my wish
    for a slice of pie :)

    you flit, you float
    and all the while
    granting wishes
    every mile

  44. Peter Pan had Tinker Bell
    When he battled Captain Hook
    But Tiny Fairy’s not that sort
    And would rather read a book.

  46. “er excuse me what do you mean i have no neck… oh i mean um naturally i dont have a neck im a dainty little fairy i dont need one…people these days!”

  47. Dearest knitting fairy,
    I have the greatest of conundrums. My severe case of single sock syndrome is acting up again. I’ve consulted doctors, dentists, and dermotologists, but they all give me shifty looks. Please help me! I’ll collapse if this goes on much longer.

    Help me,
    Molly

  48. “too cute to believe in? preposterous! would you believe me if i vanished? no? what if i re appeared in your nose?…”

  49. Tiny Fairy,

    Help! My anger issues werent a problem when i was 10, but now they are acting up! I am having a seizure, and climing the Gateway Arch at the same time! Help, before I get hit by this plane!!!!!!!

    From, M.C. (Molli is my real name)

  50. Tiny Fairy flits and flies
    Never minding about her size
    “Not size” the Tiny Fairy says,
    “It’s my name Larry that I dread!”
