How the Bunny Is Made

Materials for the Ava bunny: worsted yarn, hook, scissors and safety eyes

  1. Legs: two short legs are worked in the round, then joined together.
  2. Body: the body grows up from the joined legs, with stripes if you like.
  3. Face: safety eyes and a nose are added, and a mouth is embroidered.
  4. Stuffing and closing: the body is stuffed and closed at the top.
  5. Ears: long ears are crocheted and sewn on.

Make It Your Own

Use a self-striping yarn for a rainbow bunny, as shown in the video, or pastel colors for a classic Easter look. For a baby gift, embroider the eyes instead of using safety eyes.

  • Use a stitch marker at the start of every round.
