Get your needles and camera at the ready for the 3rd annual Mochimochi Photo Contest!
Once again, we’re looking for the cutest, funniest, most interesting photo of a Mochimochi Land toy. All you have to do to enter is upload your photo(s) to the Mochimochi Friends group on Flickr by November 16th.
Like previous years, winners will receive cute goodies from Japan and gift certificates from Mochimochi Land, PLUS this year they will also get gift certificates from Knit Picks!
Eligibility
To be eligible, your photo must contain at least one knitted toy made from a Mochimochi Land pattern. This can either be a pattern from the Mochimochi Shop or one of the free patterns on the Mochimochi Blog. The pattern may be modified, but not beyond recognition from the original design.
How to enter
Simply upload your photo(s) to the Mochimochi Friends Flickr group. If you don’t have a Flickr account, it is free and easy to register (though we recommend signing up as soon as possible, because it takes a little time for your account to be approved for sharing photos in a group). You can upload as many photos as you want, within reason.
Deadline
The last day to enter the contest is November 16th, 2009. We’ll be announcing the semi-finalists shortly thereafter here on the Mochimochi Blog, then everyone will be able to vote for their favorites! So be sure to check the blog in November.
Prizes!
First place prize will be a bunch of cute goodies from Japan, a $25 gift certificate to the Mochimochi Shop, and a $50 gift certificate to Knit Picks (thank you Knit Picks!).
Second place prize will be a handful of cute goodies from Japan, a $15 gift certificate to Mochimochi Land, and a $10 gift certificate to Knit Picks.
Third place prize will be a $10 gift certificate to Mochimochi Land and a $10 gift certificate to Knit Picks.

Good luck to all! :]
Before I forget, when well “mini” patterns be ready? My mom, unlike me, can actually knit/crochet, and I’ve been begging her to knit some my favorites of your creations, most of my favorites being in your “mini” sections.
Sorry about that… I’m such a huge fan! Especially of your adorable lollipop! Anyways, I’f better go before I start posting 10 more posts…
