Notes

Clever design!
Made good use of a pretty, bulky yarn that has been needing to be made into something fabulous.

Wish the designer provided her gauge and main piece dimensions. It’s useful to know, especially when substituting yarns.

Worked Mizrahi yarn along with two str Hygge for half of the piece. Worked Mizrahi yarn along with one str Hygge and one str Touch of Alpaca for the second half.

Safety tip:
Children can pull yarn pompoms apart.
Faux fur poms can be used for older kids.
A yarn sphere is best and easy.
Had just enough to make a ball for a tail with the Mizrahi / other yarns together.

Bunny tail:
r 1: MR 6 sc.
r 2: 6 sc inc. (12)
r 3: (sc, sc inc) 6x. (18)
r 4, 5: 18 sc.
r 6: (sc, dec) 6 x. (12)
stuff it.
r 7: 6 dec. (6)
Close the opening and F / O, long tail for attaching to body.

Elected to make 4 feet with the plain yarn.
Attached a crochet carry handle at back nape area.
