I Miss My Buddy!

I made these two little guys from the "Magic Friends" pattern from Idle Hands. Apparently it is in the Knitter's Stash book as well. They were one of the most fun little projects I've done and so quick! I used Funny for both of them and usually you'll only need one ball, (although check to make sure that there is enough yardage, they need 65 yards, and depending on the type of funny you may need more than one, the bear actually broke into a second because it only had 61 yards on it! What a pain!)

The bear is currenly on display in the window at my LYS, and the bunny will live out the rest of his life with Mariko as part of Operation Hairmail. Although they miss each other I'm sure that they are both enjoying their new lives!

This was a really fun project, I still have enough pink left over from the bunny's ears to make another whole animal, and I think that I have enough yellow left over from Alice's sweater to make a yellow one too!
