The showcase of cuteness continues today with the second batch of honorable mentions in the 2012 Mochimochi Photo Contest!
These are photos that we just adored for their charm and creativity! See them all after the jump.
In no particular order…
Mr. Moose, Sneaking into a Present by Mineral Cats
This is one naughty moose! We love to see mochis getting into mischief.
Bunnies in the Carrot Patch by GilStep
So this is what a tiny bunny home looks like! Adorable, of course.
Owl by kailand
Simple and beautiful mod of the tiny perching pigeons!
Harry Potter knits by hilary2pan
It’s like all the characters have jumped right out of the books! (How cute would these be as little bookmark fobs?)
Caveman in the City by bryanmounce
Giant cute things attacking a city is a subject close to our hearts.
It’s Ninjabun! Little Bunny has learned his lesson by gardeningmouse
We’re all about combos of toys like this! This is part of a 3-photo series, which you can see on the knitter’s Flickr page.
It’s hot outside! by TwoPercentMilk
Poor ice cream scoop! We love the little scene with hand-drawn background.
Pucker up! by grasley
What could be more adorable than two tiny gnomes smooching under mistletoe? The guy in the background pretending not to peek!
Wooosh… by Dknits
These jumbo gnomes are having fun and rocking some custom sweaters! (All of which I want in my size.)
The Horror. by momshoo
The cuteness! The shock!
Hooray for all these clever knitters! Stay tuned for the first batch of semifinalists, coming tomorrow!
I am shocked that the chickens are in this group! That must mean that the semifinalists are going to be OTT!!!
YAY!!!
I love the icecream cone scene. Vanilla will be missed! :)
I love the gnomes on the slide. So much fun!
These knitters really rocked it!!
The ice-cream cone scene was adorable!
Another amazing group of photos. I can not wait to see that first group of semi finalists! The suspense is killing me : )
So amazing everyone!
I loved all of these but my absolute favourite was the ice cream cone. :)
Oh my gosh, little Harry Potter mochis!! That is the best book series ever written. Great job, hilary2pan :)
Love the Harry Potter one!
Harry Potter Series are the best books ever! I love the knitted creation of that one!
Anna, do you think there could be a calendar of the top twelve pictures?
Hi Anna, I was pleasantly surprised by your mail today! I forgot my photo of the horrified chickens were in the running for this year’s contest! Thanks so much for making my day! :)
OMG a calendar of the top 12 is an AMAZING idea!!! Tiny, that’s brilliant!!!!
Yay! Thanks, Anna! I was thrilled to see my pic made it to an honourable mention! I lost my sd card with my original photos that I had taken in the park and retook the ones I uploaded the night the contest closed. Thanks again!
I love the ice cream!
the ice cream! (and i also like the chickens & eggs!)
Loving these!
Wow, just looked at your blog and saw the gnomes swooshing down the slide. They are living in my office at work now and put a smile on many off our students faces!
