My kids love balloon animals. What they don't love is that they deflate and get flat. Sarah actually declines to get one even when they are free.
I found this
pattern for a knit balloon bunny and thought it was a cute idea. I made it and it turned out okay, but I made some changes (nothing unusual for me!). I made the "balloon" thinner and I knit it in the round so I didn't have to sew up the long seam (I actually did this on the original pattern, too) I looked up balloon twisting instructions online and used them as inspiration for making more knit balloon animals.

What a cute idea! You did a great job on them. Love 'em! I'll have to let my daughter see them, she might want to make some for her children.
