Please say Hi to Rosie


I finished my latest bunny very late tonite and although its nearly midnight and her shoes need a press, I had to take some preliminary snaps.
If I decide to put her in the shop (I really am quite taken with her and may just have to keep her just for me), I shall take some daytime snaps.
She is made in lovely Sirdar Calico on the body, this is such a soft all cotton yarn I love to work with and her pretty pink dress is Sirdar Calypso, also soft cotton which is sadly discontinued now and I snapped up the last couple of skeins in my LYS. Her knickerbockers are a soft lemony baby yarn I had in the stash but is unbanded so cant tell you what it is but it worked totally for this and panic set in as I realised there may not be enough. There was exactly 1 and a half inches left when I cast off. Phew!
Do let me know what you think of Rosie. I love her but I am biased cos I am her Mum.
