FUNNY BUNNY

AUTHOR: MARI-LIIS LILLE

Published in Estonian magazine Pere ja Kodu, in May 2013
Funny Bunny is about 21 cm tall and crocheted from nine pieces. This simple toy
gives a nice overview of amigurumi basics single crochet, increasing and
decreasing.
All lilleliis toys are original design. I put a lot of effort in creating the cuties, writing
patterns, taking photos and offering you friendly customer service. Please show your
respect towards my hard work by crediting me whenever you share things made to my
patterns.

Supplies:
yarn I used Katia Pima Cotton (50g = 105m)
For making a unicolored bunny, you only need one skein of yarn. If you want to use
two colors as in this example, you need less than a half of the skein of both colors.
crochet hook 3.5 mm
polyester fiberfill

 safety eyes ( 6 mm)

some thread for stitching a nose
some fabric or buttons for embellishing
Abbreviations:
sc = single crochet, st(s) = stitch(es), rep = repeat
Work in continuous rounds. Do not join or turn unless otherwise instructed. It
would be wise to use a stitch marker and place it in the first stitch of each round to
mark the beginning of it.
Leave a long yarn tail for each piece, this way it`s easy to sew the toy together.
