Bunny Block

I used a free pattern on the side link to knit this Bunny Dishcoth as a block for KTC blanket.

It went really fast and it was fun! A few of these would make a great baby shower gift!

Bunny!

I swear I posted this here already, but I guess I was dreaming or something.



I sent the bunny to my mom on Tuesday, so hopefully it will arrive today or tomorrow at the latest. :)

Another Kate Gilbert bunny

Just for fun. I want to make more of these!

Here's my bunny

Well, strictly speaking it's a crocodile pretending to be a bunny. I got inspired by that bear in a bunny-costume crochet pattern, but found the bear too innocent-looking. So it became Ms. Croco.

Another Bunny

I knit a bunny out of leftovers from a baby cardigan.


And here he is with a face.

Gift Bearing Buns

A pair of custom bunnies (well, kind of - the bunnies are the same as Carat, but instead of bearing carrots, these guys are carrying gifts unique to their recipients!) - now that they are gifted to their new homes, I can finally post them!

Baseball Bunny

A Kate Gilbert Bunny, in black of course. Would look cuter with a fuzzy yarn, or felted, but I used leftovers. The flash makes him look holey, but he's not that bad in person. He likes baseball!

Ant's Bunny

I knitted this bunny for my son, Anthony (age 3)--he carefully put him in the bowl with the eggs I knitted as well. (The eggs are from www.curlypurly.com/eggs.html.) I used Lamb's Pride wool, size 8 dpn for the bunny, and some cheap cotton yarn for the eggs (also knit on the same dpns).

The bunny is Jess Hutch's pattern, and I added the tail and whiskers. I was pretty happy with the way it came out, although next time I won't stuff the arms as much--they stick out too much!

I am almost done with my next bunny, in a different pattern . . .

Another Felted Bunny!

Another bunny created with the infamous pattern. I used Elann's Peruvian Highland Wool for this year's bunny. You can check out my blog for a couple more pics!

stabbyfelted bunny!

My first 3-d needlefelting project. He's pretty small... only about 2.5" from nose to tail. I made him up as I went, and tried not to bleed directly on the poor bunny as I stabbed the heck out my finger a few times. Fun!

Rosie the Rabbit

I wasn't really happy with how this bunny came out - for me it's all about the eyes - but other people just love it (her)? I think it's because of the yarn - it's Sirdar Snuggly - a bit of a nuisance to knit with but comes out lovely and soft, the stitches don't really show. She is an Alan Dart pattern.
I get embarassed when I show people that I not only knit bunnies - I pose them in the garden for their pictures!

Bunch of Bunnies

I knitted these pastel bunnies, all from the same pattern, when my sister got pregnant with my nephew - he just turned thirteen so I guess I have been knitting bunnies (and other toys) for a while now!

Needlefelted Bun

I made bags for my stepkids and then needlefelted some designs on them. One wanted a bunny sniffing a flower. I whipped this out before we ran out the door to return them. It turns out I perform well under pressure - I'm very happy with the results! I also made them those start-with-a-square bunnies, but since so many people have posted pics of those I didn't bother. Needlefelting is supereasy - try it!

Spring Bunny Fingerpuppets. You can see more of them at Fern House Studio.com

Hysterical bunnies!

Lots more here.

Cute Bunny

I had bought a skein of pink fluffy stuff with the intent to make womb, a knitty pattern for one of my infertility friends but in the end the yarn I bought was too fluffy so I thought....BUNNIES. I found this pattern and got to work. I really like how they turned out and can see myself making more of them.

Brand New !

There's a brand new bunny (free!) pattern at Magknits this issue...
Check it out!

Rag Bunny

I made my own pattern for a rag bunny the other day and put it up in my new website. Hope people like it.

Almost a bunny

Here's the bunny I'm making for my mom:



It's the pattern from Last Minute Knitted Gifts but he doesn't have the insides of his ears yet. Still, he kinda looks like a bunny...

Laurie's Bunny

My knit blog is at:

www.laurieknits.blogspot.com

and I'm currently on a bit of a toy knitting kick and a bunny fan.

This is a picture of the toy I've made for a friend's little girl. It is a fluffy bunny that was alot of fun to make, and not very hard. The only problem was that this yarn was a bit thin for guage and hence the bunny was a bit "holey" which I remided by darning the holiest bits.

Looking at these pictures it seems I might still do a bit of darning on the feet so the stuffing doesn't show through.

I also made a dress for her based very roughly on the dress in the book

It looks awfully homemade, but it was my first toy (other than catnip mousies!)I hope the little girl will like her.

from it.

The book she was made from was quite fun, and I plan to try a few more toys from it - "Knitted Toys" by Fiona McTague", which I got from the library.

The 3 year old little girl who recieved the toy seemed to like her very well, and she has christened my creature
"Bunny Bunny" - the bunny so nice she named it twice? I hope so!! haha.

Since then I've used the same yarn, Bernat "Symphony " I believe it is called ( a faux mohair type of acrylic yarn..) to knit other toys and have had much more success with doubling the yarn to knit with, usuing around 6 mm or so needles - it is a really nice yarn for a toy I think - nice and soft but still easy to knit as it has puffy fluffies instead of eye-straining "fur" type yarn...

One area I'd like to improve or vary more in my toys is the facial expressions which are done with embroidery, something I'm inexperienced at. Any pointers or good links from you bunny alonger-ers?

I do have some of those "teddy bear eyeballs" but as you all know, you don't want to use those on things for small kids as there is a choking danger.

Also, you can really scare people by replying "Do you sell eyeballs?" when they ask if they can help you find something in a store...
