Biggest Pink Rabbit

Can this be the biggest knitted object in the world?

Title: Hase (Rabbit)
Artist: gelitin
Installed in 2005 on a mountain hill above the Village of Artesina, Piemonte, Italy. Will stay in place until 2025. Check out their web site for background info and pictures!

Note: Thanks Evelien for pointing me to gelitin’s web site! :-)

    Glad that you all like it! :-) Why don’t we have something like this in U.S.?

    I don’t know if this thing will last 20 years, though. Did you see the photos submitted by the visitors? Lots of big holes already. Maybe that’s the point. Maybe it’s a GREEN bunny. Biodegradable :-)
