Penny Got Wrapped in Yarn While Grandma Was Busy Knitting

AI imageyorkshire terrierknittingtangled yarn

Grandma sits on the couch with her glasses on her head and a calm smile on her face, knitting with wooden needles. In the foreground, Penny the Yorkshire Terrier sits wrapped in loops and loops of cream-colored yarn, strands draped over her back, paws, and ears. Her wide eyes look out over the tangle, and she looks the picture of innocent confusion. A wicker basket of yarn balls, a mug, a pair of glasses, and a blue plaid throw fill the sunny room. The room is bright, and the afternoon looks cozy and unhurried.

Yarn and string are tempting to dogs, but they can be dangerous. If swallowed, thread or yarn can cause serious digestive blockages, so keep craft supplies out of reach and put them away when you leave the room. Untangle your dog gently, and never pull on a string that is partly swallowed. If you suspect she has eaten any, call your vet immediately. Giving her a safe toy during knitting time can keep her occupied and out of trouble. Praise a calm dog.

Penny is not in any distress, only very tangled. Grandma will need a few minutes and a lot of patience. It is a funny mess that no one can be cross about. At least she is warm.

Craft time is never boring with a Yorkie around.
