Bunny in Easter Eggs Basket

As Valentine's Day has come and gone, and Lent is around the corner, I'm beginning to think about Easter decorations. I found the pattern for the eggs on Crafty Anna's page. From then, I thought, eggs needed a basket and maybe a bunny?

Here's the design for the one I made:

Materials: yarn in white, pink, burgundy (or other color for the vest), light green (or other color for the scarf), black - for the eyes.

Stitched used: single crochet (sc), half double crochet (hdc), single crochet 2 together to decrease (sc2tog), slip stich (ss).

Head:

I used one of the eggs I made in white for the head.

Body: 4sc in magic circle, close the circle with ss into the sc

Rnd 1: 2sc in each sc (8)

Rnd 2: (sc in next sc, 2 sc in next sc) 4 times (12)

Rnd 3: (sc in next sc, 2 sc in next sc) 6 times (18)

Rnd 4-8: sc in each sc (18)

Rnd 9-10: switch to burgundy yarn, sc in each sc (18)

Rnd 11: (sc in next 4 sc, sc2tog) 3 times (15)

Rnd 12: (sc in next 3 sc, sc2tog) 3 times (12)

Rnd 13: (sc in next 2 sc, sc2tog) 3 times (9)

Rnd 14: (sc in next sc, sc2tog) 3 times (6)

Finish off leaving a long tail, weave it through the 6 sc and pull tight together to close.

Legs (make 2) - 4sc in magic circle, close circle with ss into the first sc.

Rnd 1: 2sc in each sc (8)

Rnd 2: (sc in next sc, 2 sc in next sc) 4 times (12)

Rnd 3-4: sc in each sc (12)

Rnd 5: (sc in next 2 sc, sc2tog) 3 times (9)

Rnd 6: (sc in next sc, sc2tog) 3 times (6)

Rnd 7-9: sc in each sc (6)

Finish off leaving a long tail, weave it through the 6 sc and pull tight together to close.

Arms (make 2) -  4sc in magic circle, close circle with ss into the first sc.

Rnd 1: (sc in next sc, 2 sc in next sc) 2 times (6)

Rnd 2-8: sc in each sc (6)

Finish off leaving a long tail, weave it through the 6 sc and pull tight together to close.

Ears (make 2) - Ch10 with pink yarn

Rnd 1: hdc in 2nd ch from hook, hdc in each ch

Rnd 2: switch to white yarn, sc in each stitch around the ear.

Scarf - ch35,

Sew all pieces together. Use pink yarn to add the nose, and black for the eyes.

Happy crocheting!!!
