Assemble the cute bunny
now: arms, legs and tail to the body, ears to the head, then body and

Now you can dress him up
if you feel like it. I decided to add a little purple beanie and a
matching scarf since I knew my friend loved this color.
The beanie was made as
follow with purple yarn:
Round 1:
ch 24, join with ss (24)
Round 2:
ch 3, *3 dc, 2 dc in next st (back loop only)* repeat around, join with ss (30)
Round 3:
ch 3, *2 dc, 2 dc in next st (back loop only)* repeat around, join with ss (40)
Round 4:
ch 3, *9 dc, 2 dc in next st (back loop only)* repeat around, join with ss (44)
Round 5: ch 3, *10
dc, 2 dc in next st (back loop only)* repeat around, join with ss (48)
I added a round of crab
stitch in aqua yarn for finishing it off.
The scarf was a simple 50
fhdc (foundation half double crochet) in purple yarn.
I hope you liked him and happy crocheting :)
