I’ve been obsessively checking out all the Knitting Mochimochi creatures that are popping up on Ravelry every day since the book was released—there are so many fantastic ones already!
One of my favorites is this adorably plump Confused Moose made by Alice of Kathryn Ivy.
It’s amazing how the size and placement of the features can give a toy such a different personality—to me, this guy looks like the “Muppet Babies” version of the original. And the Malabrigo yarn that Alice used is gorgeous! Somehow I’ve never used Malabrigo myself, but now I really want to give it a try now.
If you’ve made a toy from Knitting Mochimochi or any of my other patterns, be sure to add your photo to the Mochimochi Friends group on Flickr! It will appear on the Mochimochi Land gallery page and it will also automatically be entered in the next Mochimochi Photo Contest.
Even a moose gets to go on vacation!
Kathryn Ivy is one of my favorite blogs. Their yummy use of malabrigo makes everything seem so cushy and huggable!
LOVE Malabrigo! And now this has convinced me – I must buy the book!
That is such a cute idea! Malabrigo is so soft and colorful :) I found a great website that sells a bunch of Malabrigo yarn in a huge variety of colors! You should check it out :) Thanks!
