This week I've had a lot of fun making some teeny toys for the little cotton rabbits. So much so that I thought you might like to have a go too.
So I've written up a free pattern which you can find here. It's a bit fiddly and is probably an evening's work but they are fun to make and at our house they are proving very popular, as you can see...
Honey loves her little bunny - she's named him Pip and she never goes anywhere without him!
Your little rabbits are so cute ! I really love them. I wish you would write the pattern (maybe one day you will ?).

OMG how cute are they?!! Yet again I wish I could knit *rolls eyes*
Honey looks very at home with her new little off spring

I love them. How could you possibly have made your toys any cuter? Thats right by making them micro sized! Adorable.

Hi Julie,
That would have to be one of the cutest things I've ever seen!
Posted by: Binny | May 01, 2008 at 12:54 PM
oooh! Thanks so much for the lovely pattern. I have some grey alpaca I purchased directly from the ranch that will make adorable bears and bunnies. Should you ever tire of knitting your little creatures for sale, I do hope you will consider marketing your pattern or writing a book. Thanks again for your generosity.

you are trying to make my eyes go all squinty and odd aren't you? Either that or my husband has paid you to make my evening's crafty even more frustrating, right!

I've only knitted socks so far, a teeny tiny bunny is just right for my next project! Thanks.

I love them! I wish I could have one of the "big" bunnies to hug a teeny tiny like these :)

How precious are these! I have some stuffed friends at my house that would love to have their own little cotton bunny! I will have to make some of these for them. Thanks so much for the pattern. If you ever do decide to write up your patterns for sale, I will be one of the first ones in line to buy. I am *grown* but I still LOVE stuffed animals! :)

Gasp! How wonderful. Ugh, if only some day I can actually nab one of your toys on auction. Maybe you'll consider a swap with me in the future?

You are such a talented designer. My daughter is getting married in 3 weeks and I am busy making shawls, a garter, wedding card box and finishing the flower girls dress (which the bride made) and then I am going to make one of your cute little teeny tinies. They are just adorable. Thank's for the pattern.

Absolutely brilliant! Love the mini bunny!
You pose your bunny so well...how did you ever get Honey to hold on to Pip? Trying to pose my bunny and photograph her was pretty difficult.

Oh Julie, they are just too precious!!! I am definitely going to have to learn to knit now!!! =) Hope you will be posting some of these little critters in your shop sometime soon.

Hi Julie - these are so fabulous - I've been wanting to give my rabbits a teddy rabbit to hold for ages - I found some mini ready made rabbits in Michaels (I know I should be shot) but I haven't used them because they look so un-hand made. Bunny teddies on the way!!!
Posted by: Rachael Rabbit | May 02, 2008 at 12:38 AM
Just when I thought your stuff couldn't get any more adorable, you come along with these. So, so sweet!
