2. Place a stitch marker.

Insert the Arms:

1. Insert the arms. Position them so there are 3 SC in the front and 4 SC in the back, with 4 stitches between the arms on each side. Crochet the arms together with the body.

Insert the Ears:

1. Insert the ears. There should be 4 stitches in the front and back between the ears, and 5 stitches on the sides. Crochet the ears together with the head.

4. Tighten the hole and hide the thread.

Tail:

1. 6 SC in MR

3. 12 SC
4. 6 DEC (6)

Stuff the tail, then sew it on.

Face Shaping:

Create the eye shaping (I use white thread, but you can use the bunny's yarn color). From point 5 (bottom of the head), pull the thread to point 1, then to point 2, and back to point 5 (tighten and tie the thread). Next, pull the thread from point 5 to point 3, then to point 4, and back to point 5. Tighten, tie, and hide the end inside the head.
