Mature Content: Teeny Peenie

Warning: Mature content ahead!!

I know what you're probably thinking...."WHY!?!?!" Well, why not! Teeny Peenies make great bachelorette party gifts, gag gifts, or just a quirky thing to make to use up your scraps of yarn. Make some in April for Testicular Cancer Awareness Month, June for Men's Health Month, or make some for your November or "Movember" craft table to raise funds for the "Movember Foundation" and other organizations. Overall, the Teeny Peenie is just a fun little pattern I came up with, and if you don't like it, feel free to shrug it off and move along. :) Thank you!

Customization instructions:
