It was a very dark evening, two nights before Halloween. We were coming home from our crochet group, why was our crochet group this late at night? We all knew it was a bad idea. We walked on the quiet, dark, lonely street to our homes. In the distance we could see a little creature. He ran across the street, and disappeared out of sight. A couple of minutes later, we heard the little creature. It was such an odd noise—what kind of animal was this? None of us could make out what kind of creature this was. It was a spooky walk home. We were almost to the door—until we noticed a little shadow on our doorstep, the shadow of the little creature. We asked each other, all trying to figure out what kind of little creature this was. Should we get closer? Should we find out who this little creature was?

The finished size of your zombie bunny will be about 12 inches. Your size will vary depending on the yarn you choose, the crochet hook you choose, and your tension while crocheting. I used worsted weight yarn and a size D hook to get my zombie bunny to 12 inches.

Here are some helpful tutorials on my blog to help you with some parts of the crochet pattern…
