Wee Little Mice

Tucked between teacups and spools of thread, a little mouse might be watching you, quietly living its own adventurous, miniature life. These knitted mice feel as though they’ve stepped right out of the pages of a fairy tale — curious, clever, and full of character. Worked quickly with only a handful of yarn, each one comes to life on your needles, perfect for using up colorful scraps or creating last-minute gifts that feel personal and full of heart. Knit them in soft neutrals or bright rainbow hues, and soon your pockets and teacups will be full of tiny friends, each with their own personality and story to tell. These mice can be made at any gauge as long as it is on needles 2 to 3 sizes smaller than would usually be used for that yarn. This will impact the finished size of your mousie, and may impact the yardage needed. Amount of stuffing will also impact the finished size of the mousie. The pattern contains a photo tutorial for embroidering your mouse’s face.
