Spring has finally arrived so let’s knit a cute Springtime animal – a bunny! Just a single skein of worsted weight yarn and you can make a bunny friend (or two!) for your home. The bunny is started from the bottom and worked in the round. The ears are worked flat and then whip stitched onto the toy. Add eyes, nose, or other features to make this cutie uniquely yours!
