A practical and adorable doorstop, this sitting bunny rabbit is knitted in stocking / stockinette stitch with erika knight ‘vintage’ wool yarn.

One floppy ear acts as a handle and the bunny is stuffed with organic cotton and natural rice grains for ballast, and finished with a cute pom pom tail in a contrast colour.
