Crochet pattern for a small, cuddly bunny.

The back piece and front piece of the bunny are each crocheted in one piece and then both pieces are crocheted together with a contrasting color. I used a cotton yarn with a length of 115–125 m / 50 grams. 

The pattern is described in detail, so even beginners with a little practice in single crochet, slip stitches, and chain stitches will be able to follow the pattern well.
