Off the hook :: Spring Bunny and other FOs

I've seen this amigurumi bunny on a number of blogs now and I couldn't resist making one for my bunny mad #2 child.  All his favourite soft toys are bunnies.

Amigurumi are great to make if you have children and there's nothing else you fancy crocheting.  They are so easy too - usually being crocheted in a spiral using UK dc stitches only. I'd recommend a stitch marker though so you don't lose the end/beginning of the round.

Other FOs...


another animal motif, a squirrel...

and a heart doily for a handmade Valentine's card...

Now I've got an amigurumi panda and a bit of knitting on the go - a round cushion cover. Once I start knitting I remember why I don't do it very often - it's too slow. And it sounds like there's some complicated grafting to be done too which means this cushion cover is something that may never be finished.
