In this tutorial, you will learn how to crochet a bunny with movable legs and head. The author recommends using Alize Diva and YarnArt Cotton Soft yarns for amigurumi. You can substitute these with any yarn of your choice. The bunny can be made with either a pin joint or thread joint. For the face, you will need plastic toy eyes and black thread.
