Assembly

Standing ears

The ears should cover R8 until R11 and there should be about 5sts between them.
Centre with the marker from R6.
Attach the ears in a way that the “longer” part of the ear is on the bottom. “see picture 1.1”
This will make them naturally point up.
standing ears
When attaching the ears I like to create a “zig-zag” shape with the yarn working through 1 stitch of the ear & one of the head until I’ve covered the whole row.
Then I just pull the yarn tight and repeat on the other half od the ear.

Relaxed ears

The ears should cover R8 until R11 and there should be about 5sts between them. Centre with the marker from R6.
Attach the ears in a way that the “longer” part of the ear is on the top. *see picture 1.2*
This will make them naturally point down.
relaxed ears
Attached relaxed ears: to help the ears lay flat against the bunny’s head, thread the yarn out below the ear and sew the ear fixed to the head.

Front legs

Make sure that the legs are centred with the marker from R6.
Fold in half and attach on the bottom of the bunny, between R13 & R14.
There should be 5 visible stitches between them.
front legs
To keep the legs in place and achieve the desired look, you can use a strand of yarn and securely sew the legs to the bun’s body. *see picture*

Tail

Big tail: line up the MR of the tail with the body’s MR. For an easier sewing process you can pin each leaf of the tail to the body and sew securely.
big tail
Small tail: line up the MR of the small tail with the big one’s. Sew the small tail by making a few sts around the MR. Do not sew the leaves to the body. *see picture*

Face shaping

If you’d like for you bunny to have a more defined face shape, you can follow these instructions.

Insert the yarn through a random point A and out a point B right under the bunny’s eye.
face shaping
From there, insert the hook into a point C right to the side of that eye and out on the other side of the bunny’s face.
face shaping 2
Repeat this action pulling the yarn tightly 2 to 3 times to get the eyes settled a bit deeper into the bunny’s face.
face shaping 3
Once finished, pull the yarn out in the middle of the face, through the centre of the MR.
face shaping 4
Then insert it about 3 rows below and out the centre again, pull tightly and repeat 2 to 3 times to get a more defined snout.
face shaping 5
Embroider the nose, strawberry seeds and add any details that you see fit.
