What better way to spend a snowy weekend than knitting a couple of cute bunnies? We may have had 20″ of snow this weekend, but these little, cute, pink, fluffy bunnies didn’t seem to care. I used the blue loom and the <\/span>free pattern<\/a> (PDF) from the Loom Knitting store. These bunnies knit up in about an hour. You start by knitting a flat panel using 15 pegs. Then, you knit two ears, a tail, and you sew it and stuff it.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

For my first bunny I used two strands of Bernat Softee Chunky. When I started the ears, I accidently read the pattern wrong and knitted at least two rows too many, but it looks sort of cute that way, more like <\/span>Amigurumi<\/a>\u00a0than a bunny. For this bunny, I kept the “knit” side facing out.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

I then did another one using two strands of\u00a0Moda Dea Dream (Color: Blush). It’s very soft\u00a0and fluffy. I probably should have used three strands because they were so skinny… Next time, maybe. This one I followed the ear pattern more closely and they turned out pretty cute. This bunny has the “purl” side facing out.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

These bunnies are very small–no more than six or seven inches long. I’d like to knit a bigger bunny, maybe using the blue loom but instead of just 15 pegs, I’d use all 24 pegs. I’m guessing I’d have to knit at least 40 rows. If it keeps snowing, maybe I’ll do just that!<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
