Hello everyone! First day of the month of May brings you the Strawbunny! While I had very clear ideas for the previous months, with this one I was a bit unsure what exactly I was going to make. I had initially planned to make a flower bun, but as March already featured flowers, I decided to go for something else. I don’t know about where you are, but here, May is peak strawberry time – hence I made the strawbunny! But what kind did I want to make? My original plan was to make a bunny in a strawberry colored dress, and maybe I will make one someday, but for today, I decided for a cute little bunny lurking behind a giant strawberry, ready to take a bite. I hope you’ll make your own strawbunny! ❤

Materials
To make the Strawbunny you will need:
– A 2.5mm crochet hook
– Green, red and white yarn (plus yarn in your desired bunny color if you don’t want white)
– A tapestry needle and scissors
– Stuffing
– Safety eyes
– A stitch marker to help you keep track of the start of the round
Please note that you can make the Strawbunny using any size crochet hook and yarn weight for a smaller or bigger result. Using DK yarn and a 2.5mm crochet hook, the strawberry should be about 20cm long and 10-15cm high; the bunny should be about 15cm tall.

Stitches & Abbreviations
The pattern is written using US crochet terms in continuous spirals. You will need to know the following kinds of stitches to make him:
– Magic Ring (MR)
– Chaning (ch)
– Single crochet (sc)
– Decrease (dec); preferably using the invisible decrease method
– Increase (inc)
– Half double crochet (hdc)
– Double crochet (dc)
– Slip stitch
