I had to travel about 7 hours this weekend, so in preparation for such a trip, I downloaded a number of tiny animal knitting patterns. I figured it was more fun to bring a number of different balls of 5-10 grams in different colours, rather than one big ball in only one colour. In the end I managed to knit 5 little ones on the road and a pentapus before I left. The knit critters were a crab, a whale, a crocodile, an alien and a pig.
All the instructions were followed completely, apart from eyes which were all made with a thick yarn knotted twice.

The whole gang together! I have some more patterns, so chances are that a mouse or a sheep or a chicken will join the flock…
