Safety Note
This bunny is not intended to be used as a toy. It is unsuitable for babies or small children. The beads used on the face could become a choking hazard. If you want to make it safer for young children, consider embroidering the details instead of using beads.
Tips and Variations
Your finished bunny does not have to look exactly like the one pictured. Adjust the materials and embellishments used to produce a one-of-a-kind rabbit:
- Changing the hook size and the thickness of the yarn used is a simple way to alter the size.
- Substitute old sewing snaps for the beads on the eyes and nose to create a unique, old fashioned appearance.
- Sew flat buttons over the stitched arm and leg joints to embellish and customize the bunny.
