Tiny Leprechaun

Posted on March 18, 2011March 28, 2011 by Anna

Winning caption by Caroline:
If rather than ”top o’ the mornin”,
You’re tired, fed up and mean,
Pop me in your pocket and smile
At something Irish, wee, and green!
(me!)

I pretty much entirely missed St. Patrick’s Day yesterday, so I’m making up for it today with this little guy!

We’ve all heard what leprechauns do, but a tiny leprechaun deserves his own special tiny leprechaun lore, don’t you think? Leave your lore in the comments, and the writer of the best caption will win a free PDF from the Mochimochi Shop on Monday!

Tiny Bowling Pin and Tiny Bowling Ball

Can a tiny bowing pin and a tiny bowling ball be friends? There’s no prize this week (I’ll be traveling a bit in the upcoming week), but feel free to speculate in the comments!

My thoughts today are with my friends in Japan.

Tiny Tater Tot

Posted on March 4, 2011March 28, 2011 by Anna

Winning caption by Diana K:
This ain’t a tater for the faint of hearted
No silent bite, cause it’s crunchy and salted.
I ain’t gonna be just a tater in the crowd
You’re gonna shout my goodness
as you eat me out loud….
It’s my life, it’s now or never
I ain’t gonna last forever
I just wanna make your taste buds sing.

Last night I ate fancy tater tots while Bon Jovi sat at the next table. And it wasn’t even a dream! Just a New York evening. Now I’ve got rock anthems and fried potatoes on the mind…

How does this tiny match introduce himself at parties? Leave your caption in the comments, and we’ll choose a winner on Monday to get a free PDF pattern from the Mochimochi Shop!

By the way, this tiny match was inspired by this neat-o needle felted version done by Moxie.

Tiny Star

Posted on February 11, 2011 by Anna

This week’s Tiny Thing is a very big deal to me!

tinystar

A knitted star is something I’ve attempted several different times in the past few year, and I never got it right until now. (There is a perfectly good knitted star pattern already out there by Kira Moffet, but sometimes it’s important to me to make my own version.)

There’s something else special about this Tiny Star—it will be going with me to Berlin in April for a new solo show! I’ll share more details about that soon, but right now I need to get back to knitting for it.

Let’s continue the caption contest next week!

Tiny Baby Bunnies

Posted on February 3, 2011February 3, 2011 by Anna

Taking pictures with the Dust Bunnies yesterday got me thinking that I could use more bunnies in my life. Coincidentally, today is the start of the year of the Rabbit, so I just couldn’t resist.

(I actually have some very big plans for these little guys. More on that soon!)

Happy Bunny Year!

Winning caption by Michelle:
Tiny Koala is always wondering what smells like cough drops… “Oh, wait, it’s me!”

This little Aussie looks innocent enough, but is he really? Leave your cute/funny caption in the comments, and we’ll pick our favorite on Monday for a free PDF pattern from the Mochimochi Shop!
