"Chocolate" Bunny FO by Jackie Erikson-Schweitzer

Pattern: "Knitted Bunny" by Jackie Erikson-Schweitzer
Source: Free Ravelry Download
Yarn: Remnant "Chocolate" Worsted
Needles: 4mm straight
Modifications: None

Just in time for Easter a one evening project (despite being "chocolate" its even zero calories!) to get this knitter in the mood despite our "little boy" being across the ocean and no reason for the Easter Bunny to visit our house! :(

This ingenious little pattern has you start by knitting a square. Using either the knit or purl side up you gather a section in the middle of one side and stuff it to make a head.

Then stitch the corners together so the section in the middle becomes the body and the sewn corners the legs for this wonderful crouching bunny shape.


The final touch is also an excuse to make a pom pom!

We're meeting the new baby today - the one for whom I knit the most recent Tomten (here). This little bunny is for her. We'll take it along tucked into this giant basket of goodies Darling Daughter assembled for her.

Hope you're having a great weekend too, whatever you're up to! Thanks for dropping by!

I love this! And I love the part about zero calories. I KNOW I have some brown yarn around here somewhere....
