Bunny bits! I need four finished bunny egg cozies by Friday for my niece and nephews. Number one was knit and finished to double-check fit - she sits atop a Kinder Surprise Egg perfectly! Bunny two is knit but all the assembly remains. Bunny three has been started. Fortunately they're a quick knit. Even the finishing doesn't take long although it's a bit fiddly ... especially the embroidery which is really not my strong suit.
The pattern is here. I'm knitting entirely from sock yarn scraps; no shortage of colour choices in my stash. I'm just trying to decide about bunny fur colours. I could make them all different if I include some grey bunnies, but I'm leaning towards another cream and another tan instead because grey just seems a bit ... well ... grey. Besides, I think grey faces would necessitate black embroidery rather than dark brown, and I'm not enamoured with that thought either.
Happy Easter everyone! Our celebration takes the form of a long weekend spent with family and chocolate. It's Work-in-Progress Wednesday over at Tami's Amis. I bet you'll find more Easter ideas in the posted links :)

Such cute bunnies. They're sure to be a hit. Enjoy your Easter.
Happy Easter to you and your family! Bunnies are so cute. Grey would be okay too though. Grey bunnies need love too. LOL
These will be great. Enjoy that weekend celebration with family (and chocolate).
Truly charming. Hope you post the FO photos, would love to see them.
They are super! Fab pressies! Have a good Easter!
What cute bunnies and thoughtful presents. Hope you get them done in time.
Those bunnies are just to cute, I love them. My friend knit some ducks a couple of years ago for the children and I take them out each year and fill it with a kinder egg also, they still love seeing them so I know your bunnies are going to be enjoyed no end.
Aww cute. I look forward to seeing them assembled!
Cute! I just had to stop myself from casting two on for my nieces - I have too many other things to do! (Plus the yarn scraps are packed!
So cute!! I love them, but can't imagine knitting all that small stuff!
I completely forgot about WIPW! I guess vacation does that to you. I need to get a photo of my niece in her hat so I can show that off on Friday. Good thing she is on vacation here too.
Too cute! Happy Easter to you!
Those look very cute!
CUTE!! Good luck getting them all done in time :)

I hope you get your sweet bunnies knitted in time........they are delightful, I'm wondering if I have time to knit a few by the weekend..........perhaps not!
