Scene: A dimly lit room with a spotlight on a veritable pool of petal pink wool which is ominously surrounding small figures studiously bent over the eerie sight of many rabbit parts.
Monday: 10 pm - Unraku Troupe decide on number and colour of puppets required.
Tuesday: I search for lighter pink wool appropriate for a herd of girly rabbits. The knitting of tubes begins. Give up at 1 am.
Wednesday: I continue knitting of tubes for felting. Felting begins. Give up at 3:45 am.
Thursday: Early am - I make one more tube & felt it. Go to work. Head to one of the troupe's studios to finish collectively sewing, stuffing, pinning, hot gluing, ears, tutus. Midnight arrives. 6 bunnies are ready (or at least will hold together for one chaotic performance.)
Friday: Performance!
We did it! And barely in time for the 2nd performance.
Look in the upcoming weeks for a video of this performance on YouTube and perhaps you can get your own bunny replica puppet at KnogginKnitting.etsy.com
