Easter Bunny-Egg

Hello!

As many of you asked me for the pattern for crochet bunny-egg, here is it.

I use 100% acryl yarn and crochet hook 3. You will need 2 colors of yarn (A and B).

Instructions for Egg

It is worked top-down in a continuous spiral.

Make a magic loop from yarn A.

1^st row: sc 4 into the magic loop (4)

2^nd row: [inc] 4x (8)

3^rd row: [sc 1, inc] 4x (12)

4^th row: sc 1, inc, [sc 2, inc] 3x, sc 1 (16)

5^th row: [sc 3, inc] 4x (20)

Place the eyes between rnds 16 and 17. The distance between one eye to the other is 9 sts. Stuff the body as you go.

23^rd row: [dec] 6x (6)

Break the yarn and close the remaining 6 stitches.

Ears

Make 2.

Using yarn B, ch 8. Starting in the 2nd chain from hook, work the following stitches along the chain:
1^st row: sc 2, hdc 2, dc 2, then °dc 3 + tr 3 + dc 3° into the last st. Now work into the remaining loops along the other side of the foundation chain: dc 2, hdc 2, sc 2, ch 1 (22)

2^nd row: sl st 22

Break the yarn with a long rest to sew the ears onto the body, approx. at height of the 3^rd row.

With pink yarn embroider little cheeks underneath the eyes.
