I absolutely love how this pattern combines simplicity with charm to create something truly special. The color-changing technique keeps the project interesting without being overwhelming, and watching the bunny's personality emerge as you work through each section is incredibly rewarding. The finished size makes it perfect for little hands to hold or for displaying on a shelf, and the addition of the skirt and ribbon gives it such a sweet, finished look. I find the construction method clever and efficient, minimizing the amount of sewing needed at the end. Most of all, I love how quickly this adorable friend comes together, making it ideal for last-minute gifts or when you need a creative pick-me-up project.
I love experimenting with different color combinations to give each bunny its own unique personality! Instead of the traditional pink and white scheme, try using pastel blues and grays for a sweet boy bunny, or go bold with bright rainbow stripes throughout the body for a more whimsical look. You could also swap out the skirt for tiny crocheted pants or overalls to create a completely different style.
I've found that adding small embroidered details like a nose, whiskers, or even a little flower crown can really elevate the finished piece and make it feel extra special. The ribbon can be replaced with a tiny crocheted bow tie for a dapper gentleman bunny, or you could create a small scarf instead for a cozy winter version.
For a more textured look, I sometimes work the entire body in a different stitch pattern like the moss stitch or bobble stitch, which adds wonderful dimension without changing the construction method. You could also make the ears longer for a floppy-eared bunny look, or shorter and rounder for a more teddy bear style appearance. The possibilities are truly endless with this versatile pattern!

Yes! The pattern is written for worsted weight yarn, but you can use fingering weight yarn with a 3mm hook for an even smaller bunny. Just be aware that your finished size will vary depending on the yarn weight and hook size you choose.
No, the arms and ears should remain flat and unstuffed. This allows them to lay naturally against the body and creates the intended shape and appearance of the finished bunny.
Follow the symbol pattern chart on page 1 of the pattern for color placement. Change colors at the beginning of the specified rounds by completing the last stitch of the previous round with the new color to create clean transitions.
Working through back loops only creates a defined ridge that serves as the attachment point for the skirt. This technique gives a clean, professional finish where the skirt meets the body.
Yes! The pattern includes a tip for inserting wooden pins into the bottom of the feet to help the bunny stand upright. This is optional but recommended if you want your bunny to be freestanding.
Use stitch markers to identify the center 6 stitches between the legs, with 18 stitches for each leg. Start the first leg at the 31st stitch of Round 36, and rejoin yarn at the 7th back unworked stitch for the second leg.
