Yarnaby and the yittens!!!

OHHHHH THESE GUYS WERE SO FUN TO MAKE!!!

Also meet the yittens, they kinda replace the nightmare critters?? Kinda?? Theyre lil ankle biters <3,,,,

Also, turning this redesign thingy into an AU! its called Playtime Park now hehehe

Anyways rewritten lore below!

Yarnaby was originally released as part of a wildlife conservation campaign in the 1970s, but due to his sheer popularity (especially with the kiddos), Playtime Co. decided to release an entirely new toy brand called the "Yarnimals", where profits made from this toy line would be donated to wildlife conservations.

Yarnaby was then added to the "Playtime Park" mascot roster soon after, where he would reside in "Yarnaby's Knitting Club" station. There, he and his handler would teach kids how to knit teeny tiny versions of him, often called a "yitten".

Unfortunatly, yittens were often forgotten, discarded, or even thrown away by their owners, but don't worry! Most of the yittens were taken in by Yarnaby, forming his own lil pride. (Perhaps the yittens being an extra $20 dollars has something to do with it...)

But despite the Yittens being an extra $20, Yarnaby's station was pretty popular with the kids and adults alike, with the kids happily exclaiming that they were so glad that "yarnaby was super duper soft!" Yarnaby is also trained not to say a word while he's playing with the littler guests, so parents don't have to worry about Yarnaby roaring and scaring them! (He couldn't roar even if he wanted too... Poor fella was never given a voicebox when he was created...)

So please, if you're able, head on down to Playtime Park to meet your favorite toys from Playtime Co.!
