Christmas Day Blue Bun Bun

Bunbun

I don’t know about you, but in my family, much of the holidays is spent sitting around, before and after meals. Yeah, I know we should be tobogganing or cross-country skiing or something HEALTHY but we DON’T DO THAT, OK?

Anyway, I may be sitting, but I’m not idle. I like to have a little something handwork-wise on the go in between rounds of turkey, trifle and Apples to Apples. On Christmas Day, I pulled a ball of blue yarn (Vanna’s Choice, come to think of it) out of my bag and started knitting. I ended up with this bunny. The ears took a few tries, but overall I’m happy with Blue Bun Bun. I think I’ll make another and draft a pattern while I’m at it. (It’s knit in th round on DPNs, naturally. Like I’m going to put unnecessary seams to sew in a pattern of my own making.)
