Isabelle in Italy

Meet Isabelle, my first crocheted animal. I finished her around the end of November but have been keeping hush until I could present her to her new owner, my sister. She’s made from left over scarf yarn. Her eyes were rescued by SB, from my grandmother’s sewing kit. I decided she should only wear pink to compensate for her darkness and designed the cape, complete with ear holes.

There’s something about putting a face on an object that can change your whole understanding. Once I finished her I realized she was Italian. Being an Italian bunny obviously means she eats only gelato and always looks fabulous.
