The deep vibrant colors of autumn and the yoke design featured in Elizabeth Zimmermann and Meg Swansen’s Two Yoke Sweaters inspired this bunny dress. Various shades of madelinetosh tosh merino light unicorn tails were used for the dress and cardigan.

Using the chart featured on the last page of the pattern, I cast on 96 stitches for 8 pattern repeats. The challenge was making the decreases between the repeats rather than in the last two rows before the waist. It gave more of an a line effect and showcases the leaf design. In the future I will try to center the bodice a bit more over the skirt design. The dress was finished from the waist up following bunnyknitters seasonal dress pattern which never ceases to amaze me as the sleeves take shape!

The bunny was knit on 2.75 mm needles with Filatura di Crosa Zara yarn in Latte 1773.
