Jenny..my first little bunny

This little bunny was a long time coming. I have been working on a bunny patttern for over a month now. There was always something wrong. A body too puffy....a head too long....an ear too wide. I finally merged a pattern from www.fuzzymittens.etsy.com and www.twinsknit.com and my perfect little bunny started to take shape. I also wanted to use up some of my stash....but oh no....my bunny is too good for that. It only wants the best, the highest quality of yarn that is offered. And so I got to visit my favourite little knitting shop! (Can't you see I am sad).

Here she is.....Jenny.

Here she is getting into her modelling job....

Of course as soon as my little girl came home from school and saw Jenny she put on her pleading eyes. I reminded her of all the reject bunnies (didn't call them that as that would be mean) she got. So Jenny is the first bunny in my shop www.grizzlie.etsy.com.  Her views are low so far, but I am not going to tell her. She thinks she is the hottest thing since sliced bread ;)

Meet "Jewels"

One of the projects I completed (insert clapping) was a bunny. I woke up one day and thought today I would like to knit a bunny. I hope these moments happen to other people....I would hate to think I am alone in these crazy knitting thoughts. So after going on the web searching for the perfect bunny pattern I came across www.lovefibres.etsy.com  and found Julies's Robert and Rosie Rabbit pattern. I went into the stash and found three balls of Martha Stewart Craft's Alpaca Blend in Buttermilk. Even saying the name Buttermilk makes my heart beat a little faster in excitement. My sweet bunny only took a few days to make while I sat next to my little girl suffering from a bad cold, who was going to be her new mama. When she was done, my little one named her Jewels. She choose the colours of her soon to be dress and a star was born. This pattern was easy to follow and so much fun to do. The details of my changes and progress are on my Raverly page (Grizzlieknits)



And here she is in all her glory....

Such a sweet face.....
