Tiny Things
Tiny Butterfly
Mar 1st
Update: We had so many great entries that we chose four winners!
Happy March! This is maybe my favorite month transition of the year, because spring is coming. And spring brings lovely things like butterflies!

How about a tiny poetry contest for this little guy? Leave a comment on this post with a tiny poem about this tiny butterfly, and we’ll pick our favorite on Monday. The author of our favorite tiny butterfly poem will win…
A set of tiny mochis pinback buttons from the Mochimochi Shop!
Psst: Extra points will be given for unusual rhymes with the word “butterfly!”
Tiny Dr. Who
Feb 8th
My friend Christi is getting married tomorrow! She’s one of those cool brides, so of course she requested a tiny Dr. Who set as a wedding gift. Now that I know she’s opened it, I can show them here…

I’m embarrassed to say that I have yet to watch any Dr. Who, so I had to take to Twitter to find out who Rose is and what her Doctor should look like. Fortunately the Dr. Who groupies really came through for me! I’ve also been flattered to get some pattern requests, but I’ll have to think about this one since I don’t normally make patterns for existing characters. But I can say that they were relatively simple modifications of the other tiny people that I’ve designed.
Best wishes to Christi and her husband-to-be Bobby!
Tiny Squirrel
Sep 28th
UPDATE: We had so many great Tiny Squirrel captions that we picked three winners!
The requests have been coming in for years, and here he finally is: Tiny Squirrel!

What kind of squirrelly behavior does a tiny squirrel get up to in Mochimochi Land? Leave your caption in the comments, and we’ll pick our favorite one on Monday. The winner will get the soon-to-be-released Tiny Fall patterns for free! (And yes, Tiny Squirrel is included!)
Tiny Turtle
Aug 17th
Winning caption by Debbie:
Tiny’s favorite game is Jenga. Slow and steady is definitely the key to winning, but if he happens to fail he is protected from the avalanche of blocks by his handsome shell!

Tiny Turtle knows that slow and steady wins the game. But what is his favorite game to play?
Let us know what Tiny Turtle’s game of choice is in the comments, and we’ll pick our favorite answer on Monday, August 20th. The winner will get the new Tiny People pattern collection!
Tiny Sumo Wrestler
Jun 15th
Update: The matchup is Sumo v Sushi, as suggested by Linda! Check out the animation!
I’ve been knitting lots of really big stuff lately, but sadly I can’t share any of it here yet! Top-secret knitting stuff. But between my epic projects this week, I made time to knit a tiny version of something big: Tiny Sumo Wrestler!

Now, I could make another sumo wrestler for this guy to fight, but I think it would be fun to see him in a match against another tiny mochi. Who should his opponent be? Leave a suggestion in the comments! If I use yours, I’ll mail this off to you:

Why a Little Twin Stars Re-ment set? Because it’s a hint at the new pattern that I’m releasing next week!
