Introducing the sweetest new friend in Mochimochi Land, the Mini Holi-Log! This little treat of a design is destined to be the life of your holiday gathering. Just look at her adorable lil face! And her mushrooms! And her holly! And sprinkles!
Use the code YULEBEMERRY after adding $5 or more in products from the Mochimochi Shop, and the Mini Holi-Log pattern will magically appear in your cart!
Holi-Log’s elegant wood grain is made using a fun technique: basically knit and purl at random!
Other techniques used in this cozy little project include knitting in the round on double-pointed needles, I-cord, a little bit of mattress stitch for assembly, and French knots for holly berries. (These last two are shown in video tutorials linked in the pattern.)
You’ll need some woody-brown yarn (about 24 yards), some creamy white (about 8 yards), and a teeny bit of green, red, and black for details. Any weight of yarn and corresponding needle size will do, but the sample shown is made using fingering-weight yarn and size 1 (2.25mm) double-pointed needles.
As those of us in the Northern Hemisphere approach the darkest part of the year, we’re wishing you warmth and light and coziness among your favorite creatures and comforts!
Does the code only work on your website and not on ravelry?
Super-cute! I need to set aside some time to tackle this pattern.
So adorable! I am part of your KnitStars class. I would really, really love a pattern for a large tree, like the castle, it’s all types of characters to knit as ornaments. I have three young granddaughter and I knit them the Arne and Carlos Advent sweaters this year. It would be fun to knit a Christmas tree. Thank you for your creativity and for sharing it with us!
