We have a number of crochet video tutorials you can check out in our Beginner’s Guide to Crochet. These will help you learn how to make the basic crochet stitches, such as a magic circle, single crochet, half double crochet and slit stitch.
Crochet Yarn/ Hooks
This pattern works with any yarn of choice. Just make sure you use the corresponding crochet hook size to suit the yarn weight.
You will need two main colours of yarn – white for the rabbit body, and a contrasting color for the rabbit’s dress. You will also need a little black for the Miffy Cross Stitch Nose and some safety eyes.
You will also need a little stuffing – we like to recycle old cushions to use as stuffing instead of polyfill.
Finally you will need some scissors, tapestry needle (only a little sewing is required for this pattern) and stitch markers.
So onto this adorable Amigurumi Bunny Pattern!
