For the babies in our life and the child in us all, we’ve designed our sweet Baby Bunny and cheerful bunting flags.

The bunnies tuck right into a pocket or a pram. They make an adorable, tiny friend for a bigger teddy bear buddy. Or attach them to the twill-tape swag alternated with bunting flags for a playful nursery decoration. They’re a shoe-in for baby shower gifts and one bunny looks adorable tied to the package.

The garter-stitch knitting is easy and the finishing is simple, albeit a little bit fussy. But don’t worry: slight variations in assembly are what add the charming character that makes each one special. Every bunny is different! The result is so aaahhhh-inspiring that it’s well worth the effort. Once you’ve made one, you’ll be amazed at how they multiply!

Our original version using Erika Knight’s British Blue Wool (blue, cream & gray bunny photos) is no longer carried in stock. So, we reyarned this adorable pattern with Big Bad Wool Weepaca (pastel pink, lavender & green bunny photos.)
