To start with I really do not knit or crochet toys. Scout has a real thing for bunnies. Stories of bunnies, stuffed bunnies, pictures of bunnies, any kind of bunny. So when we saw a knitted bunny on a website I got the idea that I could do it without the pattern. I used the tried and true original old grandma's dishrag pattern. I used the Baby Bee yarn I had used for Scout's baby afghan and made contrasting ears. I used stuffing for the head and seamed it shut. I just eyeballed everything and this is what I came up with. As I said I don't do toys and the eyes, nose and mouth are not what I would consider that good but apparently Scout really liked it. It's a bunny.
