I previously linked to a free pattern for a chipmunk softie made from the “Happy Gloves” book by Miyako Kanamor. Miyako also published a book called “Sock & Glove“, which provides step-by-step instructions on how to turn socks and gloves in to lovable softie characters.
You can now find the free pattern and instructions for the dog AND the bunny from the book on the Martha Stewart website:

Great step-by-step pictures and instructions. And a clever way to recycle socks and gloves of course

The project is from a new book by Miyako Kanamori, published by Penguin, called “Happy Gloves” - which, as the name suggests, is all about making cute little critters from a humble glove. Miyako also authored the popular softie book, “Sock and Glove“.
