I love the change between seasons and probably the main reason I love it so much is my childish excitement at all the new yarn types that are released. This year is no exception with Rowan launching lots of irresistibly gorgeous new yarns – thicker weights for the felted tweed range, a lovely mix of wool and silk in the new Silky Tweed, intriguing textures with Lima and my favourite; the lovely fluffy and soft Alpaca Cotton which I've already made a bunny with.
The only difficulty now is choosing which to use next!

What a great bunny! Lovely idea to make him (or her!) different colours, very different. Those yarn colours look really Autumnal, going to go and have a look at them now……….!:-)

Beautiful yarns and gorgeous bunny as always. I too love the change in seasons although I have to say by the end of winter I long for this time of year again. We crafters always seem t be a season ahead of the weather though dont we.

The bunny is so cute… Have you thought of selling your pattern? That way we can knit one for ourselves and not worry about trying to get one from the Etsy! Give it some thought… Adorable colors on the bunny!
