I finished my pine trees!
I’ll donate one and the other is for the blanket project I am working on with a fellow yarnie.
So I tried amigurumi and I am creeped out by the results.
I started with the whole make a bunny from a square pattern. I should have known that it was going to end badly when it was taking forever to just knit a garter stitch square.
Then, I followed the assembly poorly and make it worse by adding features to it!
I made a ZOMBIE BUNNY! It’s terrifying and I am going to put it in my hubby’s Easter basket! Yikes!
Please don’t let me try amigurumi again!
Looks great!
My first bunny was a mess as well. The dog now uses it as a toy.
The others turned out okay. I switched to a fluffier yarn and…NO Faces!
Thanks @TeaNSugar and @Woolfan He loved it! He was also amused when I called it my zombie bunny and showed him my post!
Ok, I think I’m getting better working with multiple colors. I figured out that a good way to practice was using a corrugated rib and choosing a pattern where I did not need to carry the floats much. I used Premier Yarns’s Flying Feathers pattern. and added the colored 1 x 1 rib and eliminated the pom-pom.
My hubby put a head form in my Easter basket and this is the first time I got to use it. (Notice how it is a male head that he got me - hmm, someone wants more hats!)
I am pretty happy with the results!
Good job - your work looks great! What a thoughtful and creative gift for your husband to put in your Easter basket.
But it looks so cute from behind! I wonder if making it with sock yarn plus stockinette stitch would have helped, but then that would have taken even longer and the ears might not look right. I have no idea.
LOLOLOLOL! Awesome. I think it’s kinda cute, especially for a first effort! Even if he doesn’t think it’s cute, he’ll probably be amused.
Awwww, @K2-Tog, so glad he loved it! Thank you for updating us, it’s always nice to hear of a happy ending!!
