Notes:
 A yarn with no stretch is best for amigurumi, I ordinarily use cotton or cotton blend.
 Amigurumi is usually stitched in the round (unless it says otherwise).
 For this pattern, the following yarns were used:
o MAIN = Scheepjes Cotton 8 Colour “502 White”
o PASTEL = Scheepjes Cotton 8 Colour “529 Violet”
 Generally, the hook you use for amigurumi will be a smaller than for other crochet as you want the stitches tight.
 The yarn thickness and hook size used will affect the size of the finished item. My Rini the Rabbit is approximately 28 cm tall (11 inches).
 I have embroidered the eyes for this pattern but you may choose to use safety eyes. Please ensure that there are no loose fittings.
