Konin was supposed to be a redesign of a previous design but he ended up a whole new idea spilling out from my hook. The name comes from the Cornish word for rabbit, the county that I grew up in. I’ve always had a rabbit or two bouncing around the garden so the two collided.

Difficulty
The pattern is written in US terminology. You work a single crochet in the round with the legs and body made in one piece. Arms, ears and head are made separately and joined.

Double knitting yarn (light worsted / 8 ply) I used Stylecraft Special Double Knit in Parchment, Aspen and Raspberry
3mm (US C/3) hook
2.5mm (US B/1.5) hook
Stuffing
Two 7mm safety eyes
Darning or tapestry needle

Measurements
Bunny measures 11 cm / 4.25 inches tall from foot to ear.

I am happy for this pattern to be used for personal use or limited commercial use with small numbers being made for resale with me being credited for the design. Please do not replicate any part of this written pattern.
