This was an experiment, with undyed, unbleached organic cotton yarn.

Is it just me, or is this bunny really kinda scary?

:lol:

He kinda looks like the bunny from 'The Maxx' comic book series. That was a twisted series.....

Seriously though, it is adorable.

I think it's cute. You could always market it as a DIY customizable bunny. Sell it plain and maybe even offer suggestions on how to embellish it.

Made me laugh. But he is kinda cute - in an organic kind of way.

Re: undyed, unbleached and kinda scary

yeah the range of color in the organic baby alpaca...wow...
but oh so spendy...

becky, I managed to get some of the natural tan cotton.
They're kinda expensive. (I've got a kitty in the tan about 1/2 way done, and will probably be done tonight.)

Re: undyed, unbleached and kinda scary

I think your bunny is a little freaky looking and how do you expect someone to feed it with out a mouth.

He's not one of those zombie bunnies? I think I'm scaring myself...... :0<>

Re: undyed, unbleached and kinda scary

I think you should totally market him as a zombie bunny. Are zombies scarier or less scary than imaginary lead in ordinary yarn? I don't know. It's a toss-up, I guess, since they're both pretend.

Re: undyed, unbleached and kinda scary

Artisan, at least 3 people have called him a "cave bunny" like those fish that live at the bottom of Mammoth cave that have evolved to be eyeless albinos.

You are person #2 to call him "Zombie Bunny". (#1 was DD who seems to be into zombies lately. )

I named him "Yokai" (ghost/monster) but maybe should re-title him zombunnie... :D

Re: undyed, unbleached and kinda scary

Moddy, that would be CHEATING!

(I may eventually buy some of that organic alpaca since it comes in near black... and would be great for eyes.)

If anyone actually buys him, or convos to buy him I'll offer the option of embroidered eyes.

Re: undyed, unbleached and kinda scary

How about little plain wooden buttons for eyes? Oh and read Lovecraft's the Mountains of Madness... in it there are very cool 6' blind white penguins.

You could do some creepy ass white penguins and they're not supposed to have eyes...

Buttons are a choke hazard, unless they're the size of tennis balls.

Re: undyed, unbleached and kinda scary

sorry but I can't help but wonder, as a parent I wouldn't buy this, I'd think,

why not just give the child a pillow and be done with it. A pure white pillow, and save the money, NOT that it isn't cute, don't get me wrong, but I couldn't see buying it. Maybe its just me,

is that what we are going to be left to choose from now on?

I did see there is one organic clothes line on one of the Green coops, thing is though,

they might as well just be white Burkas, there is no shape, no color, no life and no joy. Again, why bother, why not just drape a white sheet and be done with it, save your money and buy food [that probably hasn't been tested and may make you sick with E coli but hey, its all for the children].

Zombies is right, I can't help but think, we are becoming not the Nation of the Free

but the Nation of the Submissive.

Beige, colorless, joyless. With the rate its going, walking dead zombies...maybe that is why it appears that way.

Re: undyed, unbleached and kinda scary

Jane: This little guy is a "protest item" ... so yes, that's EXACTLY my point.

(Oh and I put up a couple wise ass quickie graphic PIF's so download them and have fun people... )

IMHO the eye/face ratio is part of how my usual method for producing "cute" works... so this guy is kinda scary.

Maybe I should add "Fix CPSIA and I'll give him eyes..."

Normally organic doesn't exclude dyes, but CPSIA has a POSSIBLE exception for undyed, unbleached natural fibers.
Ohhh, that's so fun. *not* (almost all the rest of my shop is really colorful!)

Maybe I should offer a "dye packet" off koolaid.
*sigh*
