Materials
- Yarn:
- Main Body: Light or pastel colors (e.g., beige, cream, soft pink, light gray).
- Bow: Contrasting bright or pastel yarn (e.g., light blue, white, or purple).
- Ears/Belly Accent: Use the same color or a coordinating shade.
- Secondary Color: White or another contrasting color for ear accents (optional).
- Black Yarn: For embroidering whiskers.
- Hook:
- 2.5 mm crochet hook (for most yarn weights, adjust accordingly).
- Stuffing:
- Polyester fiberfill or toy stuffing.
- Safety Eyes:
- Preferably 6–8 mm size (position between rows as noted; you can use felt to make oval eyes if you prefer).
- Scissors & Tapestry Needle:
- For sewing, weaving in ends, and embroidery.
- Stitch Marker:
- For tracking the beginning of rounds.
- Optional:
- Glue gun for securing features (use only if not gifting to children).
Gauge
- The gauge is not critical, but ensure your stitches are tight enough to prevent the stuffing from showing.
- To scale the bunny, experiment with yarn weights and hook sizes. A thicker yarn and a larger hook will yield a larger bunny, while finer yarn and a smaller hook will create a miniature version.
Finished Size
- Approximately 15–18 cm (6–7 inches) tall, depending on yarn weight and tension.
