This pattern refers to “Main Color”. This is the main color you will use for your bunny. We start by making the head, and stop half way to create the face shaping. We then sew the nose and eyebrows. Next we continue making the body. We then make the feet, arms, and ears. Finally we make the tail!
Note: There are 2 options to the face shaping. Option 1 is for the smile, Option 2 is for a classic bunny mouth.
