(L-R) Knitted rabbit (c) Gelitin | Knitted rabbit (c) Heartstrings Fiber Arts
LARGE: This humungous knitted bunny was placed on a mountainside in the Italian Alps in 2005 and will stay there until 2025. Knitted in 'toilet paper pink' yarn over 5 years, it is the brainchild of art collective Gelitin. Its (knitted) heart, liver and intestines spill out of a wound in its side. It's even been visible on Google Maps. Take a look at the photos which visitors to the rabbit have already sent in... including one of the rabbit snowbound and one showing grass starting to grow on it.
small: This tiny bunny is made from a square of knitting - folded, stitched and stuffed. You can get hold of the free pattern courtesy of Heartstrings Fiber Arts.
Go bunnies!
