Bitsy Bunny simply adores dressing up. Today, she just can’t decide—will it be the pretty purple dress with a sweet heart on the bodice, or the cheerful, stripy one?

Bitsy Bunny and all her outfits are knitted flat and then seamed. Her head and body are worked in a single piece with simple shaping, making this project-friendly and approachable.

This pattern is perfect for confident beginners. All the bunny and accessory pieces are knitted flat using basic shaping, so you can relax and enjoy bringing Bitsy to life.

You can easily add the heart using Swiss darning (duplicate stitch)—a handy chart is included to guide you.

Bitsy Bunny stands about 21cm (8.5”) tall—not counting those adorable ears!)
