Knit Bunny Blanket Buddy and knit scarf from 2014
Here's my latest knitting finish. I actually made two Bunny Blanket Buddies for my baby granddaughters for Easter. The lavender one apparently hopped away to Alaska before I got a picture of it. This is a free pattern from Lion Brand, but the yarn I used was Red Heart Buttercup. It was hard to do the facial features with this fluffy yarn, but it's very cuddly.
I made this scarf in 2014 and just kept it in my gift closet. When I was in Alaska, Iris (age 6) liked the scarf pin I was wearing and wanted one. When I found this little heart pin at a recent sewing expo, I thought it would be cute for her so brought it home and contemplated what to make to go with it. Then I discovered the scarf in the gift closet. It's quite small, so I thought it would be perfect with the pin and not too big for a child to wear. I sent them to Iris for Easter. She goes to a private school where their "uniform" is plain colored shirts with no embellishment, so perhaps she will have fun embellishing her plain shirts when she's not in school.
What cute items for the granddaughters!
