While searching for games for my son (ok, me) I came across this: http://kirbykirbykirby.com
And while it not necessarily knitting, I’ve never come across any game focusing on yarn (or needlework) before. My only disappointment is it’s for Wii (which I don’t own; was only searching for DS games).

[B]Yarn graphics? Really? This is the fall of 2010 and that’s enough to make this game stand out during prime gaming season?[/B] Yes. The gameplay in Kirby’s Epic Yarn could be atrocious and this would still be a game worth checking out. The game doesn’t just look as if it was created with yarn and thread — as if our TVs used stitches instead of pixels — it behaves as if it was. Backgrounds fold and unzip. Enemies unravel, some as neatly as a sweater pulled by a loose end. Not a second goes by in this game when its creators aren’t delightfully showing what the yarn and fabric elements of a side-scrolling video game might look like. Yarn electricity. Yarn lava. Yarn dinos.
