BUNNIES!

Pattern: Easter Bunny by Christine Manitz (Ravelry Link, my ravelry project)
Materials: A little more then half a skein of Malabrigo in a very creamy tan, plus a very small smidgen of leftover Manos in Wildflower I had lying around from my SIL's scarf two Christmas' ago.
Needle: US9 Addi Turbo Circular 24"
Start Date: First: 7 May 2008; Second; 13 May 2008
Completion Date: First: 9 May 2008; 14 May 2008
Size: Tall is about 9 inches, Short is about 6 inches
Project Spectrum 3: Earth (green, brown, metalics)

Notes: This is sort of a recipe more then a pattern. So the increases and decreases while evenly spaced aren't set in stone. Giving each bunny its own shape.

The manos was an issue. I thought the lip of color at the bottom of the second bunny was going to be really really cute. The manos didn't straighten out when felted, it curled instead. And really didn't felt that well either.

I am a bit disappointed about it. Who knew that while it usually felts well it doesn't straighten out like the malabrigo or Cascade 220 or a number of other yarns.

Still they are very cute so that makes up for it I think.
