This really big little bunny is here to remind us that this is the last weekend to enter the Tiny Baby Bunnies Contest!

If you haven’t entered yet, that still gives you enough time to knit up some Tiny Baby Bunnies, photograph them doing something awesome, and upload it to Flickr. Look at the beautiful Koigu yarn our top three winners will get!

The deadline is Monday night, April 2nd at midnight Eastern time. See full contest details here!

They were a gift to my mother-in-law Bonney, finished just a few days before the 25th.

As you can see, Nipsey doesn’t seem to agree that his cat looks like him, but he appreciates the effort and the added touch of a fish.

And Soupy is wondering when this rude intruder will get out of his personal space!

I love this simple snowman wreath that Tusulisa shared on Ravelry.

This knitter lives in Finland, where lumiukko is the word for snowman. Cute!

As always, check out the Mochimochi Shop for the pattern. (Need a last-minute gift for a knitter? Don’t forget we have downloadable gift cards in the shop too!)

Kimak on Ravelry made this hat for her son using the Santa Baby Hat pattern by Linda Permann Knit Picks Comfy Worsted yarn.

Even if you don’t have time to knit a hat before Christmas, these guys could easily be added to an existing hat to spruce it up for the holidays!
