I Chibi, do you Chibi?

A few months ago, in the strange world of knit-blogging, there was a feeding frenzy for people to find a Pink Chibi. Like this one. I've had it since I started knitting almost 4 years ago. I like the color pink, but I didn't understand the desire to acquire one at any cost. What I do understand is the desire to buy a new color when it comes out, especially if it's a cool see-through orange one! Nifty, huh?!

The cool thing about the orange one is that it came with a set of three different sized tapestry needles, all with a bent tip! (before the only bent tip ones were the big gold ones!) The see-through blue one comes with 2 of the gold bent tip needles. (just like the old ones did) I bought mine at my local knitting shop, A Knitted Peace. I'm sure that your local shop will have them too, and if they don't...ask them to order some in!!

I must find them. My gold Chibis are just too large for some of the finishing I have to do.

Oh I LOVE those Chibis, and even though I had an old white and blue one, I had to get a blue one and an orange one! I also love that the tips are bent, it makes me smile!

I'm a Chibi addict too. ;-)

I found an orange one recently but haven't stumbled upon the blue one yet...

Happy Holidays.

I loved A knitted Peace, my Nana in law lives in Littleton, and I went there and got some interlacements mohair a loooong time ago. Made a Shawl for the Grandma in law with it, very nice ladies, lovely store :) (and cute chibi's!)
