Body:

R1: ch2, 6sc in 2nd ch from hk
R2: inc in ea st around (12sts)
R3: *sc, inc* (repeat from * to *- 18sts)
R4-5: sc18 (18sts)

R8-14: sc30 (30sts)
R15: dec8 (will be the top of his backside), sc14
R16: sc22 (22sts)
Add eyes between rows 4&5 or 5&6, about 7-8 stitches apart. Sew ears onto R8, stuff as you go.
R17: dec12 around, sew closed, sew in the tail, add pompom for the tail. To make the pompom, I wrap the same color yarn around 3 fingers about 25xs and tie off in the center, followed by cutting through all the loops. Then trim it into a clean shape that you desire.

Hind Feet:

R1: ch2, 6sc in 2nd ch from hk
R2: inc in ea st around (12sts)
R3-5: sc12 (12sts)
R6: *sc4, dec* (10sts)
Do not stuff.
R7-9: sc10 (10sts)
R10: *sc3, dec*, sl st, fasten off leaving a long tail to sew, sew onto body to hold bunny up.


For the ears, there are two options to start in the case you have not worked a foundation triple (treble) crochet. To stiffen the ears, I crocheted over the tail. Starting with an 8″ tail was ideal for me, but with an even longer tail and you can crochet over it on both sides. Body and feet are worked in a continuous round.

Ears:

First option to start: Starting with ch2, ftr15

Second option to start (alternative): ch16, starting in 2nd ch from hook tr15 add 3tr in last ch (4 total in last ch, total 18sts), continue working around the opposite side, tr14, hdc in chain (15sts- 34sts, including beg ch), fasten off leaving a long tail to sew.

Sew onto R8 on bunny’s head. Enjoy!
