Purple Bunny


I made a purple knit bunny from Fuzzy Mitten's 'Scraps Chaps' for Karen's daughter. It came out hugely better than my first attempt to make a bunny, though I think that time I was using the "Easter Bunny" pattern. Anyway I was quite pleased with the results, and also used it as an chance to work with my skills at color swapping and pattern making.

I didn't put a heart button on it, since the target owner is three years old, so I just sitched a heart on with some embroidery floss.

I gave it pale pink eyes from Suncatcher-eyes, and I think the whole thing came out pretty nice. I even gave it an little bit of a tail, just knotted on a bunch of fluff on it's butt.

I felt pretty awesome, since I finished the whole thing in two days!
