Bunny the Bunny Crochet Pattern

Image
  I bought this white fur yarn a few years ago, but I never made anything with it. Fuzzy yarn can be challenging to work with. Every time I picked this yarn up, I ended up giving up. I found it a little easier to use a larger crochet hook and make the stitches lose. Working with fuzzy yarn is more of feeling than seeing. The best part is that mistakes are easier to hide with fuzzy yarn. I wanted a challenge, so I got this yarn out and sat down to start working. A bunny was the first thing that I thought of when I looked at this yarn. A cute, fuzzy baby bunny.  I gave the bunny to my 7-year-old, who loves it. He named it Bunny. So that's where the name came from. Notes: I used a bobble stitch in round 12 to make little bumps that look like little feet. Another option will be posted at the very bottom. If you decide to use the other option just sc around in each stitch for round 12. Terms Used: Mc: Magic Circle Sc: Single Crochet Inc: Increase Dec: Decrease Materials: 4.25 mm hook Fu

Most nights, he doesn't even sleep using a pillow, so it would be hard to leave his tooth under the pillow for the tooth fairy. He loves everything I crochet, so I decided to crochet something for him. After spending hours searching the web and not finding what I really wanted, I decided to try to make something myself. I'd never crocheted anything without having a pattern to follow.  I hope my pattern is easy to understand.
