Kitsune Amigurumi (Free Pattern)

Here's a cute and simple pattern for a fox amigurumi I designed. The body is worked from the legs up; the other parts are made separately and then attached.

You'll need:

14: sc in next 7, *-* sc in next 8, *-*, sc in last 3 sc (28)

Moving to Instagram!

Hey guys! I know this blog has been dead for awhile, so I'm moving it to Instagram. I'll be using up the last of the bunny tags (there's a lot left over), and then I'll be making a new one with the Instagram link.

In the meantime, you can access the new blog here.

Bunny Season!

It's been a lazy couple of months so far this year, although I do have some new (now old) pictures of bunnies being dropped. Bunny season is upon us however, so I will be making and unleashing lots of bunnies in the next couple of weeks. In the meantime, here's some of the drops that happened since my last post. :)

New Tags for a New Year!

Has it really been almost 2 months since my last post? Yikes...

Anyway, you might see an influx of posts in the near future with a bunch of bunnies being dropped. This is because I got some new tags! Hooray!

My aunt, uncle and cousin sent me a box from vistaprint for Christmas with 150-200 business cards, all containing the TBM message that I leave with my bunnies.

Aren't they neat? The card is nice and heavy, so it won't get all bent up if they get knocked around in my bag.

Over the next couple of weeks, I'll be phasing out the old tags and getting ready to drop the newly tagged bunnies. In the meantime I hope you all had an awesome holiday season. If I don't get to post some updates beforehand, I'll see you in the next year!

Florida Mall

We went out early to the mall today so we could get the Peter Pan Tsum Tsums that were being released. Even though we got there right around opening time, they were out of everybody except Peter Pan, Tinkerbell and Tick-Tock by the time we got to the register. Holy Cow, that store was packed! It took us the better part of an hour just to get through the line.

I did manage to drop a couple of tiny bunnies as we were leaving, though.

Back from Hiatus!

I am so sorry for the lack of posts in the last few months; there was some family stuff going on and I just kind of fell off track afterwards. I did leave a bunch of bunnies with family in Pennsylvania, so hopefully they all found homes!

In the meantime, I'll be at the mall tomorrow, so I'll try to leave some bunnies while I'm over there.

I hope everyone had a great Halloween! :)

Bunnies Swarm the Hospital

I know it's been awhile since my last post, and I have a bunch of new photos to share! The last couple of times we've been in Marshall's/Home Goods I've left a few bunnies, and I managed to get a couple of pictures.

It also seems as if I've been found out at Pei Wei! We were having dinner there and I left a bunny with the tip, as usual. I came back from the car and the server was asking about it. :)

Then today, we were at the Celebration Hospital for an appointment and I was able to leave a total of 7 bunnies around the place! That's not all-I also got photos of every one I dropped!

I came back a few minutes after leaving these two and they were already gone!

Skye was dropped on a window sill as I was going upstairs.

 

This bun was left on the second floor.

 

When I came back to see that the first bunny left here was gone, I dropped another one on the other table.

 

Finally, we stopped for ice cream on the way home and I left the last bunny I had on me at one of the tables there! Today was definitely a successful swarm. :)
