You don’t think frogs can be cute? Then, you haven’t seen the works of a French knitter named Elliot.

Elliot creates frog dolls dressed in adorable outfits. They are standing on two feet, have big eyes, and wear all sorts of attire, from fashionable gowns to costumes.

Elliot initially learned the basics of knitting and sewing as a kid. He later decided to use his skills to make a stuffed animal for a friend and discovered he enjoyed it. 

After making several more stuffed animals, including frogs, Elliot’s relatives suggested he start selling them. It turned out to be great advice, as people loved his creations, and he quickly sold the first batch. He later started offering to do custom toys and soon developed a successful business he named Heknitt.

“Right now, I have the job of my dream. I live off the froggies. I couldn’t have asked for a better job, and I could never have dreamed of making stuffed animals for a living,” Elliot shares on his website.

Elliot now sells his frog dolls through his website and Etsy while also sharing his newest creation on his popular Instagram page, which has 175K followers. Scroll down to check out more of his frog dolls dressed in adorable outfits.

Yarnbombing is a new type of street art that uses yarn instead of paint. Knitters and crocheters cover walls, trees, and different object on the street with colorful, cozy yarn. The movement started when Sayeg, along with a couple of her knitter friends, using their spare yarn to make door-handle covers.

It was a joke, a way to take something mundane and make fun. But the joked sparked something in Sayeg. She started making cozies and blankets for objects. She started with a ‘stop’ sign and from there went to bigger and biggers things. She also formed a group with her friends, and together they went to cover everything in warn, colorful yarn.

The project gathered media attention after one of Sayeg’s most ambitious projects: a bus. She covered every part of the old vehicle with fun colors and patterns. The piece went viral and yarnbombing became a worldwide trend among knitters. Now you can find sign-posts, doors, and old vehicle dressed in sweaters all over the world. The old grey streets of the city suddenly look so much cozier!
