An email is winging it’s way to the winner. Normal service shall resume on Eskimimi Knits tomorrow, if I can get my camera working…

Many thanks to Mr Cloud’s retro t-shirts for the support and for supplying the prize for the giveaway. A 10% discount off any of the t-shirts or bags on mrcloud.com is still available for a limited time using the code ‘eskimimi’ at checkout.

Thanks to all who made the competition such fun. Wool E. Mammoth is now fully kitted out with slippers, trunk warmer, tusk cosies and all the other accoutrements she has ever desired.

What came first, the woolly or the mammoth?  Did these magnificent prehistoric pachyderms evolve or were they created… by knitters?  Here are two of my favourite things – knitting and natural history, in one T-shirt, designed by Eskimimi for Mr Cloud.

knitted woolly mammoth t-shirt from www.mrcloud.com

With knitting needles for tusks and a warm and cuddly knitted body, this mammoth really is woolly.  In this t shirt the mammoth is caught at the moment of casting on a new project  perhaps another mammoth in a previously unknown form of reproduction.  Could this have been why these wonderful animals eventually died out – because they couldn’t knit new mammoths fast enough?  Help to make sure that knitting never dies out again by making sure that we never forgot the fate of the woolly mammoths, and give fellow knitters and science nerds alike a smile for only £12.99, and available to ship worldwide from www.mrcloud.com

He's not just woolly, he's knitted. Oh, and he has buttons for eyes!
