There has been a LOT of discussion (fighting, upleasantness, etc) over the use of the term thread bear in light of the acquired "Thread Bears" trademark and their claims.

Amazing things in January
In January our talented members have done some really amazing creations!
This tiny, tiny bear is only 12mm (0,47 inches) small! It is not crocheted but knotted using silk sewing thread. It is hard to believe it is possible to make something so small!
