Finger Knitting Bunny DIY – How To
The video once again shows you the very basic of how to finger knit (I feel it is important to show it each time.. in case you are new to finger knitting and want to learn the basics of finger knitting from scratch). The video really is the best way to learn how to finger knit, however BELOW the video, I have written out some of the instructions for making the bunny itself!
- You will need two strands of finger knitting -we made on 44cm long and the second 38cm.
- Tuck in your “loose strands” by threading it into your finger knitting.
- Take the 44cm and fold at the middle.
- Approximately 7cm from the top, tie your fold strand tightly together. This will make the ears.
- You should have a loop below it now.
- Now pinch this loop into 4 equal “small loops” (a bit like flower petals). Tie each one of these off. You have your basic bunny shape.
- Now take your second 38cm strand of your finger knitting and wrap around around your first one – between the “arms” and the “ears”. And tie a little knot and wrap it around to form a head. This can be a bit “hit and miss” and you may need to re-wrap it until you are happy with the shape of the head!
- Once happy, secure it with loose threads at the back of the head.
- Finally.. you can finish of your Finger knitting bunny diy by adding eyes and a nose – we did this by tying a little thread… but it was very fiddly, I think using a bit of felt and glue may be easier!!!

Thank you so much to anybody here at Red Ted Art. As a babysitter I know that sometimes you need a good activity to keep the children out of your hair even if only for 30 mins! I felt so happy giving 2 adorable children an activity to do on a cold and rainy winter’s day. these bunnies gave the children something they made to be proud of and they made great decorations in my aunt’s friends soon-to-be nursery. I’ll say it again , thank you.
Sincerely-Jennifer.
