  4. This is absolutely adorable! I was just about to cast on for Miffy, but got sidetracked and saw this, and now I can't decide which to knit first! (BTW, I should add that I made a Miffy bunny two years ago as an Easter present for my then-11-year-old daughter, and she absolutely loved it. Said it was so much better than any bunny bought from a store!)
