This Knitting with Tiny Humans pattern has all the information you need to make your own Sleepy Bunny and their scarf.

This pattern is designed to be knit entirely in the round, including the scarf. I prefer using the Magic Loop technique, but you can use DPNs if you prefer. This pattern also uses Judy’s Magic Cast On for some of the pieces. If you prefer, use a cable cast on instead, but beware you will need to sew these seams up at the end.

This is an intermediate pattern. Best suited for more experienced knitters (or an adventurous beginner!) The techniques you will need to be familiar with are listed below.

  • Knitting in the round
  • Increasing (m1r, m1l, kfb)
  • Decreasing (ssk, k2tog, CDD)
  • Judy’s Magic Cast On
  • Mattress stitch
  • Kitchener stitch

You will need:

  • 2.75mm circular or double pointed needles
  • Approx. 210m DK weight cotton yarn
  • Approx. 60m sport weight cotton yarn for scarf
  • Toy stuffing
  • Black yarn or embroidery floss
  • Stitch markers
  • Scissors
  • Tapestry needle
