A while ago I had a client go through my personal blog and she happened to pass a picture of a crocheted bunny that I had made. She fell head over heels in love!
Mostly I do Amigurumi (Japanese art of crocheting stuffed toys) as a hobby because well it's fun. Over some time I've found 2 pretty amazing artists who create amis - Shannen from Sweet n Cute Creations and Stephanie from All About Ami (check out their ROCKING blogs if you love anything to do with Crochet or Amigurumi).
The bunny pattern I used to do the bunnies is from Stephanie and the pattern was actually published in http://craftzine.com
Here are the 2 bunnies I was commissioned to make :)
I've named these two cuties as Bob the Second (right), as my original one that I've made for myself is that colour, and Billy is on the left.
They really aren't very big as you can see as I'm holding it in my palm (right photo). Only about 20cm long from ear to tip of foot when lying down. They are made to be sitting and not standing, so that's why the left photo seems a bit odd (well it does to me anyway lol).
I tried to make each bunny different so that it has some character.
The only difference between my bunnies and the one's from Stephanie's pattern is that I used a 3,5mm needle, used the magic circle technique and I changed the nose because well I kind of got lost with the drawings on how to do her nose. It's kind of similar though.
Because this is Stephanie's pattern, due credit is going to her. She's an amazing artist.
