Materials.
To make bunny amigurumi, you will need
1. Acrylic yarn: for this pattern, I usually used 8-ply/dk weight or (for the giant bunny, I use nap time yarn from Lionbrand white 1,224 yards, green 1,224 yard, pink tiny bit for the inner ear )
2. Plastic eyes with safety backing ( for dk weight yarn 10 mm ) (21mm for plushie yarn )
3. Polyester fiberfill for stuffing
4. Sewing yarn needle and embroidery
5. Ribbon or button
7. Crochet hook size (2.5 mm for dk weight hold double) or ( 4.0 mm hook for plushie yarn Naptime hold double ) and craft glue
Note
The size of the crochet hook does not matter. The doll design will work just fine with different sizes crochet of hooks, only the end size of the creation will different slightly.
In this pattern, you will be working in the round continuously, you may use a contrasting colour short piece of yarn to mark the beginning of each round.
When you end a round, do not join at the end of each round; you will begin the second round in the next stitch.
At the end of each round, I have given the number of stitches you should have. If you are off by 1 or 2 stitches, do not worry about it.
