Reinsert into the same middle area (Pic 2), then pull needle out at the top right where shown (Pic 2). Reinsert into the same middle area and pull (Pic 3).

Weave the tail of yarn to the middle of the bow (Pic 1). Wrap this yarn around the middle of the bow firmly to make the bow shape (Pic 2-3). Once done, place the yarn onto a needle. Bring the needle through the middle of the bow to the other side, then tie a firm knot to secure the wrapped part. Cut any excess yarn and hot glue the bow to the toy as shown (Pic 4).

Tail:

In White

First, cut a 12″ piece of white yarn and set aside for later. Now, take white yarn and wrap it around for 3 fingers 80 times (Pic 1, 2, & 3). Now take the yarn off your fingers (Pic 4). Wrap the 12″ piece of yarn around the yarn a few times (Pic 5-6). Do this tightly to secure. Now, cut the loops of yarn as shown (Pic 7-10). Be sure to cut all the longer pieces of yarn off to get a puffy ball. Finally, hot glue the pom pom to the back of the toy as shown (Pic 12).

I liked how the bunny sat without legs. It looks like the bunny’s legs are tucked in its fur. You can add legs if you want to!
