Whodunnknit patterns have been released into the wild!
Wanna knit one?
Whodunnknit is the home of Deadly Knitshade’s kooky little knits. Whodunnknits are created to make you squeeeeeeeeee and to make you think about knitting differently.
You are the artist, your needles are your paintbrush and your yarn is your paint. Get out there and make the world your canvas. Go on.
Warning: Whodunnknits have been known to come alive and stomp about people’s yarn stashes after dark. Make sure you keep an eye on them.

Graffiti Bloomin’ BluebellThe Bloomin’ Bluebell is a handknitted fibre flower made for the lovely folks at The Woodland Trust.

Each Bloomin’ Bluebell is highly trained to survive in a suburban setting. He’ll be just fine. Price: FREE |

Floating FlutterguysThe Floating Flutterguy is a simple creature. He turns from a cocoon of scrap yarn into a beautiful woolly winged wonder in less time than it takes to scream “AGH! Is that a moth!? Get it away from my cashmere!!!”. Lucky for you (and for your cashmere) the Floating Flutterguy isn’t hungry for your yarn. All he wants is to be set free somewhere in your city.
