Last night I started crocheting an amigurumi bunny (best bunny by lionbrand) for my oldest son's teacher. His wife is pregnant with a girl, and this will be our gift to him / his baby as a thank you / end of the school year gift. The picture above is from this afternoon at the park. The pattern is on my kindle. I love that I can put pdf patterns on there, because that means that I can have several patterns with me at all times. It makes crafting on-the-go much easier. In the photo I had finished crocheting the head and body, and I had started working on one ear. This has become an almost daily thing recently: crafting at the park while my youngest son plays with other kids.
Here is the bunny. I used Vanna's Choice yarn (lionbrand yarn). In the past I have used safety eyes on the bunnies, but since this is for a baby I stitched the eyes with yarn. My son will be giving his two teachers their gifts tomorrow.
I just learned how to make these amigurumi animals. My daughter sleeps with her mouse every night. :) I would love it if you would link up to my Tuesday Confessional link party going on now: http://www.craftyconfessions.com/2011/06/tuesday-confessional-link-party.html
