These tiny mochi kits give you the pattern and just the right amount of yarn and stuffing to knit multiple itty-bitty mochis! They’re perfect for grab-and-go vacation knitting, and they make super gifts for your fellow knitters. All you need are a set of size 1 DPNs and a tapestry needle to get started.

Nine different kits are now available for $12 each in the Mochimochi Shop!

These kits are new Tiny Mochi designs not available anywhere else! (They’ll be added to the Mochimochi Shop this fall.) A little hint: all three are human-type mochis, not animals or objects.

When Martha recently debuted her new line of yarns from Lion Brand, I thought it would be fun to use it to knit the crafting queen herself—a miniature version in Mochimochi style, of course. I was thrilled that my little diorama made it onto the show! And the audience all got to take home a copy of Teeny-Tiny Mochimochi, thanks to Potter Craft.

Here’s a closer look at Mini Mochi Martha.

I tried to include a wide selection of her many animals, from her two adorable French bulldogs to one of her canaries (sitting on her shoulder). You can see some beautiful photos of all of Martha’s furry and feathered friends on marthastewart.com.

A huge thank-you to The Martha Stewart Show and also to Kim Small at Potter Craft!

I’m so excited to announce the newest pattern in the Mochimochi Shop!

At 18 inches tall, Jumbo Gnome is a huggable project that knits up quicker than you’d think with bulky yarn. The pattern incorporates fun techniques with simple construction, and your new friend will be great at hide-and-go-seek!

Jumbo Gnome also has a little secret: his beard is actually a pocket where he can stash away tiny treasures!

The pattern is now available as a PDF download for $6 in the Mochimochi Shop.

I suddenly caught the Pinterest bug last week! And then I caught pinkeye—yuck… So I’ve had a few days of downtime to pin some of my favorite things.

So far I’m pinning some of my favorite character art and plushes, along with favorite Mochimochi characters and mods. I hope to make more boards as the inspiration hits me! You can find me on Pinterest as Mochimochiland.

Speaking of social networks, you can also find Mochimochi Land on Twitter, Facebook, Flickr, and of course Ravelry! Sometimes I announce special discounts through these channels, so keep your eyes open!

Are you on Pinterest? If so, what do you use it for? Please share!
