I present to your attention my new Easter project - Easter Bunny in Carrot Tracksuit.
The toy is crocheted in one piece, you will only need to sew on the ears and muzzle. I used wire in the arms which is optional.
If you intend to keep the toy in upright position it will require a doll stand or similar. The tracksuit is not removable, just the hood can be taken off.
Pattern includes detailed photos crochet, photos sculpting, assembly and decoration. You may find a free pattern for an Easter basket in my blog https://www.crazypatterns.net/en/blog/2215/wicker-basket-crocheted

I used 200 m / 50 g acrylic yarn.

Same thickness yarn of your choice (acrylic, mohair, angora, wool, velour, etc). You may choose to make a fluffy bunny and use plain smooth yarn to make a tracksuit.

My bunny consumed around 20-25g of white and orange colour yarn and a tiny amount of pink and green colour yarn.

  • A small amount of green for carrot tops
• A tiny amount of yarn to embroider the eyelids and eyebrows in white, brown and black colours
