Who Do You Knit Toys For?
Hey everybody! I’m writing about knitted toys right now for something special to be published in the future, and I’d like to ask for your help!
I want to come up with a fun list of the different kinds of people that we knit toys for. Who have you knit toys for as gifts? I’m especially interested in hearing about more unconventional toy recipients—someone with an interesting occupation, such as a truck driver, or maybe someone with an interesting relationship to you, like your great-great-aunt.
Ideally, I would like like to hear about people for whom you’ve knitted Mochimochi Land toys, but any kinds of knitted toys are OK.
So, who have you knitted toys for, and what did you knit? Please comment! (And thank you for your help!)

I knitted a bear for my husband for Christmas one year, maybe our second year of marriage. We named it Pohaku, because I gave it to him in Hawaii, and that was the name of the hot stone massage that was all the rage that season. The bear was like our second ‘child’, the first child was a store-bought stuffed bear named Sinky that traveled around the world with us, but then got lost in Los Angeles.
We still have Pohaku, plus two children and a dog now.
I love your site, by the way! I just found it though e-junkie’s list of companies. We just moved to Vancouver, and the only set of needles I have are size 15, so the tiny things are not in my immediate future, but I would love to try something.
