From the Piles of Projects~ a Bunny Buddy Blanket

 This little Bunny Buddy Blanket came out of the pile of projects i posted about last week.
 He is crocheted with love, and is super soft. He is made with Lion Brand's Homespun yarn, which is soft to begin with, but the more you wash it, the softer it gets. His head is stuffed with polyfil, which is encased in a nylon sack, so little fingers cannot pull any stuffing loose. His features are simple and hand embroidered, making him safe for babies of all ages. This little bunny is made to last. It makes a great baby shower gift, especially in this neutral cream color.
 He wears a crocheted cotton bow around his neck that is woven into his crocheted material, but this bow can be removed for added safety, depending on your child.

 
He is 22 inches long from the top of his head to the bottom tip of his blanket. He is made for snuggling and is waiting in my Etsy shop for a baby of his own.

Here is a picture of my little granddaughter Zoey, sleeping with the bunny blanket i made for her for Christmas. She loves it....(Her yellow blanket was crocheted by her Great Grandmother, my Mom, Honey)

Oh Mare, that is just lovely!
It makes me wish my kids were little again.
Zoey obviously loves her bunny blanket.

Thank you Lynne! I love making these little toys for babies. And i think this type of yarn makes the best bunnies...So fuzzy and soft.
