The rabbit is 11″ tall not counting ears, and 15.5″ tall with ears. This pattern refers to “Main Color”, which is the main color you want your rabbit to be, and “Contrast Color” as the opposing color. I used brown as the “Main Color” and cream as the “Contrast Color”. You can use any color you want. First, we start by making head, which leads into the body. They are one piece. Next, we make all the face pieces, then the ears. Then we create the arms, legs, and tail. Finally, we make the carrot!

Love this pattern, very well written . I have 2 left to make out of 5 and I’m definitely going to try this bunny pattern. Thank so much for sharing.
Hi Violet, I’m so happy to hear that you like this pattern. That means so much to me 🙂 You’ve made a lot of these rabbits, I would love to see! Thank you so much for your kind comment
Hi love the pattern but having problems with nose and muzzle in the making them. Do I work down other side of chain?
Hi Liz! Yes, you work around the other side of the chain as well 🙂
Hi I’m loving this pattern. For muzzle round one says total stitch at the end should be fourteen but I end up with thirteen. What am I not understanding?
Hi Freida, thank you! For the muzzle I updated it to Chain 7, which should result in 14 stitches at the end of the round. Please let me know if you have any questions!
Thank you a pattern I can actually follow. Happy Easter
That’s so awesome to hear Lynn, thank you! Happy Easter, I hope you have a great one this year <3
Eine großartige Anleitung sehr verständlich und das Ende ein tolles Ostergeschenk. Danke es war eine Freude es zu häkeln wie gesagt das Ergebnis ein wow .
Hi I am stuck on the eyes. It says to do in the round. But you have done in rows. I don’t know how many stitches to do in rows also any Inc stitches
Hi there Jacki!
The eyes are done in a round, please follow the instructions under the “Eyes” to see how many stitches to make into a magic ring, and when to increase 🙂 The eyelids that go on top of the eyes are done in rows, though. I hope this could help! Please just let me know if I can clarify anything ❤️
When starting the muzzle, the stitches don’t work out right for row 1 please explain
How much of each yarn color do you need? I didn’t see it in the post.
I have this saved to make it by April 1st but can’t until I make sure I have enough
Thank you so much for this pattern and info on the yarn.
Debbie
I have the same question. It would not be much fun to end up with a shortage of yarn.
Great free pattern . Thank you !
I procrastinated on doing this pattern for a while because it looked hard to do but it was very easy to and regret not doing it sooner!! I love the way it turned out and I love how cartoony it feels!
Love thr way it turned out. Thanks for the pattern.
Love the way it turned out. Thanks for the pattern.
Hi 😁 Loving the pattern – it is going very well but I am having a hard time getting the muzzle right. I am not understanding the pattern. The numbers are not equaling out. When I chain 7 and work the sts my sts go past the chain 7 but do not go all the way around to the end of other side of chain. Please if you could help me, I would be very appreciative 😁 Lisa B. Thank you 😊
