A Basket of Wee Bunnies

I am still knitting up wee little bunnies!
And, once again, as I am thinking
Spring
there is
snow
falling down all around me.
We are expecting upto 6 inches in my area.
Ahhh well.....
it's a good day to stay tucked up inside
wearing my soft & snuggly chenille sweater
and watch the snow come down
as I knit and sip hot tea.
Oh!
And a little sweet treat is always
must at such a time as this :)
The house is so much cozier when the oven is fired up
&
the aroma of fresh baked
Pie Crust Cinnamon Rolls
permeates every nook and cranny!
 
The yarn being used in the Bunny Hatchery
is
Jeannee
by
Plymouth Yarn
It's 51% cotton and 49% acrylic
making it easy to work with
machine washable
kid friendly.
{It's safe for adults too!}
 
And because I can never have
 just one project on the needles at a time ~
I am also working on a larger bunny
to give to my granddaughter
Gabby
for Easter.

  1. Those are the sweetest bunnies! I am to working on bunnies, but made of fabric and I am crocheting their dresses for I can not knit!
    I really need to learn but it looks very confusing! Maybe one day I will trade in my crochet hooks for some knitting ones!
    Thanks for following my new blog....I love loyal followers!

    1. Hi Shari!
      I love your bunnies with their sweet little crocheted dresses :-) Don't ever trade in your crochet hooks! Your work is too gorgeous. If you lived here I would teach you to knit as well. I give private lessons in crocheting and knitting. Yours would be free!
      I will remain your loyal follower.
      I am "hooked" you might say! :)

    And those cinnamon rolls look heavenly too.

    Here's hoping you keep warm in that snow (we have very cold weather here, too!)

    Have a great week,

  9. Dearest Danette,
    I feel warm inside just by peeking in. Love the pastel colors. I think I may have to place an order for four 3 boy colors and one pink. Will you have them over on Etsy?

    Tinkled pink..keep the kettle on and I will pop over. :)

      The kettle is ALWAYS on for you Dear Fiend!
      I will be putting bunnies on my Etsy Shop today and over the next few days as I get them done. Four of the ones already done are for a local special order but I am knitting away. Let me know if you have specific colors you want :))) Thanks!
      Love you!

  12. Your basket of bunnies make me want to sit down and play with them! What difficulty range would you put these in? I'm pretty much a beginner in knitting but I'm itching to make a basket full.

      So glad you like the wee little bunnies!
      They truly are not difficult.
      The pattern is in Vintage Knits for Modern Babies by Hadley Fierlinger. If you make some we want to see them! :)))
