Season’s Greetings

Posted on by Anna

What dances in the heads of sugarplum fairies? Sweet dreams!

Thank you for being a part of Mochimochi Land this year! We wish you sweet holiday memories that you will treasure forever. And may all your dreams come true in 2019!

Please enjoy these adorable Sugarplum-themed poems that resulted from a little Instagram contest earlier this month.

From @ladyaxolotl:
🎶 Round ‘n’ plump with a squishy little bum, you can’t get much cuter than a fairy sugarplum! 🎶⁣
⁣
From @gnomadknits:
I do so love the sugarplums
That dance around my brain
Reminding me of olden days
I long for so again⁣
⁣
From @baller_fern:
Plum, Plum, Fairie bum,⁣
Dainty little tidbit.⁣
This wee gem could be yours too,⁣
If only you could knit!⁣
⁣
From @skaempferland:

There was a wee sugary plum
who partook of a wee bit of rum
both pickled and candied
she retired feeling dandy
but awoke hugging some fellow‘s thumb!⁣

⁣
From @camelama:
[Updated Beatnik plum poetry]
⁣

I saw the best plums of my generation inspired by kindness, loving cheerful happy,⁣
⁣
flying themselves through the knitting community at dawn sharing a peaceful gift,⁣
⁣
angelheaded hipsters basking in the ancient human caring connection to the starry happiness in the community of love.⁣

(You can still get the Teeny-Tiny Mochimochi Sugarplum Fairies pattern for free with any $5 purchase through January 1st.)

Happy Holidays and Happy Knitting!

Birthday GIFs

Posted on by Anna

It was my birthday on Friday (a Friday the 13th birthday, my favorite!), and this year I decided to give myself the gift of taking some time out from the week to create some birthday-themed GIFs starring the gnomes wearing, appropriately enough, their birthday suits!

I’d been meaning to make birthday GIFs for a long time, so this was as good a time as ever to accomplish it. You can find and share these with your friends via the Mochimochi Land GIPHY page.

And thank you so much to everyone who wished me a happy birthday on Facebook and Instagram! It made my day to get so many happy returns. I also celebrated by going out to a fancy lunch with John. It was a good day!
