FO Friday 52


Happy Friday and happy one year of FOs!!!!!!!!!! I'm super excited for this weekend as it's my husband's birthday tomorrow! We're headed to Disneyland (we used to go ALL the time because we had year passes, but don't anymore so it's a real treat. We're considering them again, but that's another story) for his birthday and the new tiki bar at Downtown Disney afterward called Trader Sam's. I can't wait!

Beyond that, I've been dyeing my little heart out lately. I can't wait to show you the piles and piles of yarn I've dyed, balled and re-skeined in the past week. It's insanity. This weekend (or at least Saturday) will be a nice break. :)


I actually have a FO to share with you! I know, you're shocked, right? So am I! It's nothing too major, but I'm still really proud of it because it's insanely small. Remember me mentioning in WIPW last week that I got the Teeny-Tiny Mochimochi book and started the elephant? Well, I fnished him!! WOOT! Here he is:

Materials Used:
Size US 1 needles
Knit Picks Stroll Tonal (Thunderhead)
Pattern: Tiny Elephant
Beads for eyes
3 cotton balls




Share your FOs!

  1. He's SO cute!! I just love his little blue eyes. :)

    Have fun at Disneyland -- our passes just expired and getting new ones don't look like they're entirely in the budget. :p
    I heard about the Tiki Bar when it first opened and thought of you. I hope you enjoy it!

  19. I just got that book, thinking I'd do the patterns in worsted weight yarn so the cat could gnaw on them. :) Was it easy to make the elephant?

  22. What a great job! That thing is so freakiin' tiny- don't you feel a little crazy after working on something so minuscule??!! I know I would :)

  23. ADORABLE!!! Hmmm, how weird am I...I'm thinking making a bunch of tiny pink ones and stringing them up over someone while he was asleep would be hilarious...of course the hubby is nearly blind without his glasses, so maybe it wouldn't be as funny as I think. =)
