Stuff the head firmly the fiberfill (start stuffing after rd18 and before you start with the body, the
head must be stuffed firmly).
Shape the head whilest stuffing. I always stuff a bit more fiberfill in the cheeks, the head is then a
bit wider at the bottom. Now its time to put some tension to the eyes, so the view is cuter.
Don’t cut the yarn off. We are carrying on with crocheting the body. Note that there will be a
colour change.
Body

Colour change to ricorumi Print DK.

Pull the yarn through the FLO of the remaining 6 sc and secure it.
Cuffs of the sweater: turn the body upside down and crochet with ricorumi Print DK in the front
loops of rd29 one sc in the next 36 loops.
Finish off with a sl st, tie the ends of the yarns together and hide them in body.

Crochet 3 more sc and make a colour change to Ricorumi Print DK, with that the beginning of the
rnd will be moved.
Rnd 12-15. 9 sc (4 rounds) (9)
The top part of the arms are not stuffed/ filled.
Make 1 more sc ( the edge should be in linie with thumb), close the opening with 4 sc.
Pull the yarn through the last stitch and leave a long tail to sew the arms to the body later.

The top part of the legs do not get stuffed. Pull the yarn through the front loops of the remaining 6
sc and close the hole.
Leave a long tail for sewing the legs later to the body.
Now we will embroider the details to the paws with thin black thread. Embroider 3 lines to divide
the paw in 4 parts (toes).

(Scheepjes Furry Tales, HS 3.00)
Rnd 1. 6 sc in MR (6)
Rnd 2. (inc)*6 (12)
Rnd 3. 12 sc (12)
Finish the round with a sl st and hide the yarn in the inner of the tail. Later we will sew it with
cotton thread to the body.
Alternatively you can also use a small white pompom.
Headband
(Ricorumi Print DK)
Here we crochet in rows. Chain 61 and start in the 2nd ch from the hook: 1 slst, 59sc, 1slst.
Cut the yarn, tie the ends together and secure them.
Assembly Head
• For the eyerim I used white cotton yarn and with a coloured yarn (I used purple) I embroidered a
small accent.
• The eyelid is made with black cotton yarn and the lashes with thin black thread.
• I made the nose with pink cotton yarn in rd13 over a length of 3sc. With thin black embroidery
thread you can put some details to the nose.
• The eyebrows are embroidered the thin black thread slightly aslant in rd8. The distance between
them should be 6sc.
• If you like, you can embroider cheeks with pink thread under the eyes (I would make them 2sc
wide).
• Sew the ears on the left and right side of the head between round 3/4.
Assembly Body
• Sew the arms to the left and right side of the body directly under the head.
• Sew the fluffly bunny tail (pompom) at the center back of the sweater.
• Sew the legs to the left and right side of the body directly under the sweater.
• At the end you can sew a buttom to the sweater.
