Notes

This little bunny dress was knit with a cast on of 96 stitches. I used a long tail cast on and knit 4 rows of garter stitch on straight needles to create three garter ridges, then began knitting in the round following this pattern:

Row 1 Knit 1 through the back loop in white, knit 3 in light pink.
Row 2 Knit 1 through the back loop in white, purl 3 in light pink.
Row 3 Knit 1 through the back loop in white, knit 3 in dark pink.
Row 4 Knit 1 through the back loop in white, purl 3 in dark pink.
Row 5 Knit 1 through the back loop in white, knit 3 in light pink.
Row 6 Knit 1 through the back loop in white, purl 3 in dark pink.

I finished with one garter ridge row in white (knit one row, purl one row) before starting all stockinette for the dress. The dress was done with my usual modifications found here

The heart on the sweater was done in duplicate stitch.

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