The site where I ordered the playsilks has a number of other really nice toys, including Stripes the Bunny.  (Actually, Stripes must have sold out, because I can&#8217;t find the link anymore.  Luckily, I saved <a href=\"http:\/\/sarahsthreads.com\/images\/KnitBunny300.shtml\" onclick=\"window.open('http:\/\/sarahsthreads.com\/images\/KnitBunny300.shtml','popup','width=300,height=455,scrollbars=no,resizable=no,toolbar=no,directories=no,location=no,menubar=no,status=no,left=0,top=0'); return false\">his picture<\/a> to my computer!)  I couldn&#8217;t justify buying something else for Carrie, but I do have lots and lots of scrap yarn bursting out of my craft room&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>So I picked up a crochet hook and extra yarn from her cousins&#8217; sweaters, and look!

I think there are a couple of other projects represented there, but they escape me at the moment.  The bunny is an inch shy of two feet tall and he&#8217;s super floppy, and Carrie seems to like to drag him around by one ear.  (Poor bunny!)  I think if I made another I&#8217;d make a few changes, but I&#8217;m pretty happy with how it came out &#8211; I even figured out how to make his hips and shoulders jointed so he can sit and give hugs!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For Easter this year I had decided to get Carrie a set of playsilks and a few shaker eggs &#8211; the rhythm instrument kind, not made by Shakers!
