Good morning, everyone.
Wow! What a lovely scarf!
And they're matching, too!
That Yuki-chan pattern is cute, too!
Fufu~
Mayu knitted these scarves just for us! There are only two of them in the entire world!
Jealous?
I want one!
Yuki-chan sure is overjoyed!
Yuki gets cold easily, so I thought she'd like something to warm up with.
That's so cool! I want one of my own, with a crab pattern!
Me too! With a bear, cow, and sheep!
It'll be Christmas soon, so that'd make for a great present.
Yup, yup!
Great idea!
Nekoyashiki! C'mon, knit one for me too!
Have you no shame, Saruwatari?
Bet you want one too, don'tcha Kanie?
Well... I guess I do.
Glance...
Eh?
No way! Do you even understand how long it took her to knit these?
If you want one, then knit it yourself!
That'd be nice, but...
There's no way I ever could...
Yeah...
Then, how about...
I'll teach you all how to knit!

Spun Up Emotions
Hahh... I blurted that out without thinking...
But they want to make these as presents, so I'm really feeling the pressure now...
Will I really be able to teach everyone else...?
Of course you will.
Huh?
Just think of how many things you've made, that have brought happiness to others.
With all that experience, you'll have no problem teaching others.
Yup, yup!
That harness you made for me is my absolute favorite!
And everyone loves all those adorable goods you designed for PreHoli!
I just know everyone'll love having you for a teacher, Mayu-chan!
You think so?
Just knowing that my knitting can really bring people together...
That's such a lovely feeling!
Okay! I'll do my best!
Huh? But if I'm going to teach everyone, we're going to need a whole lot of yarn.
What do we do?
Leave it to Niko!
Niko-sama!
We've got plenty of yarn over in Niko Garden!
Then off to Niko Garden we go!
Wow... This is incredible!
There's so much yarn everywhere!
A wool pompom! And so many sweaters!
Did you make all of these, Mehmeh?
Indeed, I mehh'd them all!
Mayu-sama, perchance do you enjoy the art of handicrafts as well?
I love it!
As do I!
Your current project?
A lace doily!
And you, Mehmeh?
A pair of gloves, basketweave!
Mehmeh, you're so high level!
As are you, Mayu-sama!
Ahahahah~!
What're they talking 'bout?
Dunno, but they sure are into it.
What a handful...
Mayu! You had a request for Mehmeh, right?
That's right!
Not a problem at all!
Feel free to take as much wool yarn as you like!
Really? Thanks so much, Mehmeh!
But you mehhsn't fluff me!!
Huh... So you read this like a hiragana "u".
Then this would be...
You lookin' up old characters?
Niko-sama!
Yes.
After I decipher them all, I think I'll be able to read the remainder of this diary.
That's our Satoru!
Niko can't wait to hear the rest!
Same here. And plus...
Hm?
This diary might even reveal something important, that can help the Precure's mission.
Without further ado, let's begin knitting class!
We'll use the wool yarn and knitting needles here!
Cool, look at all the different colors!
This'll be really warm to wear!
Will I really be able to knit something with such fine wool yarn?
I'll teach you all the fundamentals first, so let's all try our best!
Okay.
We'll be in your care!
Rolly-roll...
Nya!!
Casting On
First, you'll need to learn how to cast onto the knitting needles.
Cast on?
Hold both needles in your right hand,
Then work the yarn around your left index finger and thumb...
This will serve as the base for your scarf.
Woah...
Okay then, let's all give it a try now!
Okay!
Mayu-chan, does this look right?
Yep, looking good!
If you leave a little more room in between each loop, it'll make it more balanced.
Mayu! Look at Komugi's too!
Mine too!
Sure thing!
Garter Stitch
Once you've cast on, you can begin the actual knitting.
Let's start with a French-style garter stitch.
Take one of your needles, and wrap the yarn around it like this...
Urgh... So hard...
Uki~! I screwed it up!!
You missed a loop there!
Huh?
You've just started, so you can just undo that part and start again.
Really?
What am I gonna do with this?
There, all good now.
Woah!
Fufu... Fufufufu...
Get snipped, you little...
No snipping.
Whenever I'm knitting a present for someone else, I can't help thinking of them.
I always think, "I hope this'll make them happy!"
Then I imbue those feelings into it, making every single stitch count.
Imbue my feelings...
I can do this!
May your body and heart be all warm and fuzzy!
May you be full of smiles!
May we all be friends!
Mayu-chan!
Please, gimme some tips too...
Wow, what a beautiful shade of red!
I wanna make a Christmas present for Satoru-kun!!
Toyama-kun will be beside himself with joy~!
You think I'll be able to make a bunny pattern on the ends of it?
A bunny...
Honestly, that might be pretty difficult...
Even so, I gotta step up to the challenge!
I'll help you out with it~!
Hah... Gaoh-sama...
Gaoh-sama...
Behold! I've poured all my gratitude into this!
Me too! Hope my mom likes it!
Hand-knit presents...
I wonder if Gaoh-sama would like something like that?
Of course I do, Zakuro!
Wao~n!
No fair... Wish she'd teach me how to knit one too...
N-no! I cannot allow myself to be taught by lowly humans!
But, if it'll make Gaoh-sama happy...
No way! I just can't!!
I think we'll leave it here for today.
Okay!
I'm gonna keep at it a little longer.
Okay, Komugi too!
Working hard, there!
Mayu-chan, thanks for teaching us!
I'll work on it from home!
Goodbye.
Yep. See you tomorrow!
I'm so glad I could help everyone...
Let's head home as well.
Yeah!
That's...
Let's follow her!
I can't give this junk to Gaoh-sama, now can I...
Gaoh?
Are you interested in knitting?
Precure!
If you want to knit something...
I can teach you how!
Eh?
Hold up... Mayu?
Please, use these.
You work the needle into this loop here to start knitting the yarn together.
Why...?
You're in love with Gaoh, am I right?
S-so what if I am?
I want to help you tie your emotions together.
Huhh!? I am your sworn enemy!
Caring for someone else is a very lovely thing, no matter who you happen to be!
Mayu, you're a real piece of work...
Hey, tell me! What do you love about Gaoh?
W-well, I can't just...
Too many things to count?
T-that piercing gaze of his.
And his slender nose bridge.
He's got such a large body, and his coat is to die for...
I see, I see! What else??
Oh screw it... I love everything about him~!
When Gaoh-sama looks my way, my heart leaps right out of my chest!
And I can't even draw breath...
Kyaa~! That wolf is so hot!!
You really love Gaoh, don't you?
It's your business whom you choose to love.
But that doesn't mean you get to do whatever you want.
Gaoh is hurting innocent animals, for his own selfish purposes.
You're wrong! You just don't get it!
Gaoh-sama is benevolent, and cherishes his pack above all others!
Okay, all done.
Tell me, what does it say?
"November 10th. We spent the day up on the summit of Mt. Tooboe as usual."
Lately, some of the others from his pack have been showing up as well.
It seems they recognize me as a friend, for I spend much time with their chieftain.
But this peace proved to be short-lived.
By ill fortune, we crossed paths with other villagers.
The villagers drove the wolves off, crying "Danger! Stay away!"
Upon my return, I was told to never again go near Mt. Tooboe.
Not all wolves are dangerous, I tried to explain.
But there was none who would hear my plea.
Perhaps there is no way for wolves and humans to live together.
He is my one and only friend.
Yes. To me, Gaoh is...
As I thought. The wolf he wrote about really was Gaoh.
You already realized that?
More or less.
But I never could have imagined that Gaoh once had a human friend...
Gaoh-sama will always defend his pack, even if it costs his own life.
He is a caring and devoted wolf.
If it's for Gaoh-sama's sake, I can do absolutely anything!
But this is not what Gaoh-sama desires!
It is to destroy the world of humans!
Fufu...
Hark, beast! Cloak yourself in darkness, and howl!
Gaogaohn!
Mayu-chan! Yuki-chan!
That distinct body shape, and those pincers...
That Gaogaohn must be a freshwater crab!
Let's do this!
Yeah!
Shiny Cats Pact!
Wonderful Pact!

And lips so cute!
This fantastic world that everybody loves! Cure Wonderful!

This tied, spun up, connected world! Cure Lillian!
Don't be scared, don't be scared!
Everyone together!
Ready, set...
Wonderful Pretty Cure!
Gaogao!
It dove underwater!
Freshwater crabs can be just as active underwater as they are on land!
They can breathe underwater using their gills, just like fish do!
So they can stay underwater for as long as they want?
We can't get close to it then!
Gaogaohn!
Yeah, that's it! Scare those Precure 'til they foam at the mouth!
Zakuro...
Gaogaohn!
Wonderful! Ahh!!
This stops now!
Gaogaohn!
Ahh!
Nyammy!
— Bubbly... — I can't move!!
Lillian Net!
Gaogaohn!
Ehh!?
Gaohn...
My Lillian Net was...
Gaogaohn...
Lillian!
Don't be scared, don't be scared...
I'm a scaredy-cat. I couldn't even talk to other people before.
I would always worry about people disliking me...
However...
I had only to spin my emotions together, very carefully, like a skein of yarn...
Before I knew it, I had made so many new friends...
And what're you mumbling about over there?
And the thread that ties us all together, now becomes my very strength!
So I am not scared one bit!
Gaogaohn!
Lillian Net!
Gaogaohn!
Gao!?
Gaogaohn!
Gao! Gao! Gao!
Gao?
Gaogaogaogaogao!
Gaogaogaogaogao! ...Gao?
It can't cut through it!
No matter how many times you cut through, I will always stitch it back together!
Mending the frays anew will make it even stronger than before!
Gao!?
Ahh!
Stop running!!
Amity Ribbon Tambourine!
Rin-Rin Lillian!
Help! Kirarin Animal!
Panda!
Stop sleeping!!
Come! Now's our chance, girls!
Niko's power, I grant to you!
Open! Niko Evolution!
Diamond Ribbon Style!
Even better friends!
Precure! Eternal Bond Shower!
Niko-niko~!
Zakuro!
Do you wanna knit together?
Don't make me repeat myself! I am your sworn enemy!
If Gaoh really has such a kind heart within him,
Then why does he try to destroy this town, and make animals suffer?
Will destroying the world of humans somehow make Gaoh happy?
Shut up!
What do you feign to know about Gaoh-sama?
There's something I need to tell you all.
Huh?
Gaoh? You mean, that Gaoh?
So Gaoh was friends with that human named Subaru?
Yes. That appears to be the case.
He had a human friend, but now he's trying to destroy the human world?
Why?
Zakuro said this to me earlier.
She said Gaoh is a caring and devoted wolf.
I want to learn more about Zakuro and the others.
It might mean putting myself in danger.
And she may just reject me all over again...
But I want to keep spinning everyone's emotions together!
To better understand each other.
Okay then. Let's work together, and make it happen.
That's right.
Yep!
Gaoh. There was more than merely hatred within you.

Otsuru-san and Fuku-chan have been living together for 18 whole years now!
In human years, that'd mean she's about 88 years old!
Is there some secret to their longevity?
Hey! Let's throw them a party to celebrate!
Wonderful Precure!
