It’s exactly what you’re thinking.
I started knitting these fish last week, and suddenly, all I could think about was Dr. Seuss. So I had to make that happen. As they allegedly say in Minnesota, “Oh, fer cute!“
And here are a pair representing the Green Bay Packers.
And more obscurely, the Colfax (Wisconsin) Vikings.
These are too much fun! I had all of the supplies on hand, so that makes them even cooler.
Anyway, this set of fish isn’t for me. I am going to pass them along to a sweet 2-year old little girl who loves “shish”. They are theoretically a good way to learn colors. Plus they are awesome, so there you go.
What are you all making? I am knitting like crazy and I love it!
Very cute, Laura! Colors, sorting, etc.
Thanks! They were really fun to make.
The Colfax Viking fish made me laugh.
I want your pattern! Stuffed with catnip, these would make cute cat toys. I am currently doing a craft challenge for april where I try and complete as many sewing and knitting projects as I can.
Here’s the pattern!:

They are super fast to knit, once you get the hang of it. Good luck with your challenge!
