I mentioned a few posts ago that I'd proudly sent off some bunnies to Robert Mahar at Mahar Drygoods. I had a lovely surprise this morning when Zoe emailed me to say that she'd spotted them in his wonderful shop. He's photographed them so nicely, given them lovely names and has written up the cutest haiku poems about each one. If you're not busy, stop by for a look.
13th March UPDATE: thanks to everyone who stopped by for a look and to those of you who bought one of the bunnies - the bunnies are now sold out at Mahar Drygoods!
After you posted about Mahar I had been stalking the shop for a while but then I forgot! I just went to see them, they are lovely. However I think I'll wait for your next update as it wouldn't be very "efficient" to make one of these bunnies cross the ocean again!

They are all very lovely. I like the way that you've paired them. I think the grey pair is my fav. Good luck with this new venture.

They look smashing on his website - the cream and red pair look especially eye catching

Oof, I grabbed the last one at Mahar (the little guy with the skulls & crossbones sweater) - they are ALL SOLD OUT! I have a feeling Mr. Mahar will be contacting you for a second order soon! For myself, I had an appointment on Saturday and missed your shop going live by three minutes. I still hope to nab one or two more for my little boy (a panda and/or one of those adorable monkeys), so I hope you will be making more for your own store?

I was lucky enough to buy "Molly" from Mahar Drygoods!
I hope you'll be supplying them with more goodies in the future, maybe cupcakes? Can't wait to get her - Diane

They sold out quickly, I am sure you will be asked to fill a larger order next time. I did manage to pick up the little girl rabbit with the red and white dress, I have the perfect child in mind for her and I know that she will be dearly loved. Looking forward to two of the "egg cosies", my parents would just love them.

These bunnies are so sweet! I found them at Mahar Dry Goods but they are all sold out. :( I can't wait till they are back again so I can snatch one up. Your work is darling and I love your designs. Cheers!

Fantabulous bunnies.

I already received the little pirate rabbit from Mahar Dry Goods. He is just darling. I am going to tuck him away until Easter for my son. (I was originally going to knit my son a little rabbit from a commercial pattern, as well, but yours is so cute, I think I'm going to have to re-think my strategy.) I'm definitely looking forward to your next shop update!

Just wanted to say I like your blog, love your rabbits, and admire your clear, clean photos!

oooo, your bunnies are so beautiful. They have to be the most beautiful knit bunnies I've ever seen. I love, love, love them.
