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…

Tiny Pills

Winning caption by Gulnoza:

Don’t know how to knit? Take a pill!
Sewing too hard for you? Take a pill!
Can’t figure out crochet? Take a pill!

Introducing the brand new crafting pills- you will be able to pick up the above crafts and so many more with ease! Take one every day in the morning and spend the day creating!

Warning: taking more than three of these pills daily will result in addiction… to craft!

Sometimes the simplest things are the cutest!

These (not-so) Tiny Pills promise to pack a punch, but we need some help figuring out the prescription! Let us know what YOU think these pills will do in the comments, and we’ll pick our favorite on Monday.

The winner will get a free PDF pattern for Sleepy Snake & Mischievous Mouse!

Tiny French Bulldog

tinyfrenchie

It seems like everywhere I look these days, I encounter French bulldogs. They always make me smile! Maybe there’s something about the combination of their compact size, big ears, and easygoing personality that reminds me of a cat. (I have to admit I’m more of a cat person.)

But dogs are also fun in general because they come in so many shapes and sizes! I’m sure I could easily do a new tiny breed every week for a year if I chose to.

No contest this weekend, but your captions are welcome, especially from Frenchie fans!

Tiny Witch

Update: See the winning captions here!

tinywitch

Halloween is such a fun holiday to knit for!

The bad news about Tiny Witch is that the pattern for her won’t be out for a long time. The good news is that she will be in a new book that’s coming out next fall!

Now, for a Tiny Witch Caption Contest! Leave your caption in the comments (one per person), and we’ll choose our favorite on Monday. The winner gets a Tiny Zombie Kit!
