My first back to school craft for this year – Bunny Holder Amigurumi. They can be done by using some stash yarns and the free crochet pattern below.
This bunny holder amigurumi is not quite a usual “amigurumi” that we stuffed with poly-fill. I crochet a cover following the shape’s of the vitagen bottle, then decorated it into a bunny. It is an amigurumi craft because of the tight stitches and its toy-look, but not quite an amigurumi because it is not stuffed. Therefore, I called it “non-stuff” amigurumi 🙂
I started making amigurumi since I know how to crochet, some 30 years ago during my childhood years. I wasn’t even told the crochet I did has a name “amigurumi” which was meant for crochet stuffing toys. With the affluence of Japanese craft, the first non-stuff amigurumi I made was using this empty vitagen bottle. I remember I also made a bunny out of that, similar to this bunny but of course not so well did. Too bad I didn’t keep that precious first amigurumi piece to show you. Well, it is not a nice good looking one to show off, but it was my first piece which deserved a place in my craft museum. What do you think a 10-year-old school kid can produce on her very first crochet toy? 
I hope you like this bunny holder amigurumi. It doesn’t need to be for putting pencil, it can be used as a utensil holder for toddler’s utensil, or as a vase for flowers, or just anything you can think of.
We always have many bottles of Yakult because my family loves to drink it. I’m thinking of what to do with them and hopefully to give it as a Christmas gift for my son’s classmate? I just tried to look for it and I got to your blog. Thank you so much for making this. Now I could start making it as soon as possible because I’ll gonna make is around 24-30 pcs of this. Different animals or Christmas theme. Thank you again.
Nice, they are going to a group of cute little animals for the Christmas.
Oh my…this is so nostalgic. I remembered when i was young, i had a toy that my sister crocheted for me using the vitagen bottle. It was taught in school as a lesson in home economics.
I could be in the same generation as your sister then 🙂 Are you living in Malaysia too?
