Making 3-D Critters

My first 3-D critter was the thread bear that appears on my main blog. My first amigurumi animal was this rabbit. I had a great time making it and it just turned out so cute. I used sport weight yarns and basic black plastic eyes with washers. I had to learn to interpret a lot of Japanese characters while reading the charts and tables in the amigurumi books. Once I figured out some of the consistent writings, I learned what each written character means. This is the first amigurumi; a rabbit. (shown with the soda can for size reference)
