Primrose, a most adorable bunny makes my daughter smile too! Now, I'm not a knitter, but as someone who appreciates handmade and creating in general, of course I wanted to know more and I thought some of you might too. :>
Mom bought the pattern to knit Primrose from Mary Jane's Tearoom over at etsy. I asked Mom what she thought about the quality of the pattern and she said that, "Her directions are meticulous! Excellent!" I thought that was high commendation since I often hear her grumbling about errors in knitting patterns. Apparently, Primrose was a delight to knit!
Can you believe how cute this bunny is??!! And even cuter, her sweet little sweater, shorts, tights, and shoes??!! I can't stand it......too too CUTE!!!
Susan, the creator of these knitted treasures at Mary Jane's Tearoom, also has a BLOG, where her most recent post lets us know that Susan is donating 80% of her proceeds from her Primrose sales to Help for Haiti through the campaign at the popular knitting and crocheting site, Ravelry, through the month of January.
And soon enough....when Mom finishes it for my boy, we'll have Oscar (another one of Susan's patterns that Mom bought) to meet! His clothes are finished, but he is still in need of his bunny body. Thought you just might like a peek! :>
Do you have a crafty family? Or are you their creative spark?
Hi Karen,
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for dedicating this blog post to Primrose at a time when she is busy raising money for the Help for Haiti campaign.
So lovely to know Primrose has found herself a home full of so much love. Your mum has done a wonderful job !!

As always, thank you for your visits and sweet comments...they always bring a big fat smile to my face.

ReplyDeleteThis bunny is the cutest Karen! You are so lucky to have a mom who knits for your little ones!

this bunny is exactly what you said TOO CUTE! love it..I admire anyone who can knit - personally I don't think I have the patience!
ReplyDeleteOh, Primrose is so cute! Your mom is so talented! :)
ReplyDeleteawww Primrose is a treasure for sure. Excellent job mom!
ReplyDeleteOMGoodness...what a cutie pie...your mom did an excellent job!!!!!
ReplyDeleteyou know, I think everyone has craftiness within them...it's just getting it to come out..LOL..my mom quilts and crochets...my brother has done some woodworking...my other brother tends to spend a bunch of time in his yard...I think that is a form of creativity too...I'm super thrilled that my kids love to be creative:)
Wow! This bunny is so cute! Your Mom is so talented!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for sharing a link to the pattern!
And thank you for visiting my blog!
Oh my that is the cutest thing EVER!
ReplyDeleteawesome! that is cool, I was always afraid if I knitted a sweater for my kids they would outgrow if before I was done, I should make doll cloths (or bunny clothes) instead. Wonderful!
ReplyDeleteOh this is too cute! I was thinking how if I ever get a neice I'll need to make this, but now that i know there is a boy version perhaps I'll need to get knitting... thanks for the link!
ReplyDeleteI owe all my talent to my mother (catsonmyquilts.blogspot.com) who brought me up making lots of crafts, though the knitting came from my grandmother. This is something she would've made me for sure!
SO cute! And sadly, I am the only creative one in the family...the oddball! :D
ReplyDeleteSo adorable....I am off to take a peek at her blog. This bunny is the sweetest thing I have ever seen. Thanks so much for sharing.
ReplyDeleteHi Karen,
ReplyDeletelove your new blog header! Looking at it makes me smile - I think we got almost 8 inches of snow over night... That bunny is so darn cute! Your mom did a great job!! I'm so not a knitter :( I had once to knit a pair of socks and it has so many "imperfections" that it's not even funny but I kept them anyway LOL
Have a fabulous weekend! :) Dana
Hi, Karen! What a sweet, adorable, handmade gift! Primrose is quite the treasure! Like your new blog header, too! :-)
ReplyDeleteAwe! Your mom is crazy talented! Primrose is adorable and clearly you don't fall far from your mom's creative tree. xoxo
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely adorable Karen,
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for sharing!
Love Sarita xx
What a sweetie! And what a great way to help a good cause!
ReplyDeleteI love the bunny! Thank you for sharing Grammie's little find on Etsy and her talent!
ReplyDelete"Creative spark?" My Grammie was my creative spark! (My Great Grandmother) The spark skipped a couple generations before landing on me! And then exploded in my daughter!
Oh my goodness, what a sweet and thoughtful gift. I love her. She's such a treasure. I have a very crafty and talented family, too.
