Hot Cross Bunny - Creme Egg Cover
Introducing our charming Baking Bunny knitting pattern, a delightful creation that features a lovingly handcrafted bunny holding a freshly baked Hot Cross Bun between its paws, with a delightful chocolate Easter Egg nestled in its tummy! This whimsical bunny makes the perfect Easter gift for bun enthusiasts and knitting lovers alike, bringing joy and creativity into your holiday celebrations.
If you're more inclined to make a traditional plain currant bun, fear not! Our pattern includes alternative instructions to accommodate your preferences. To get started, all you need are some straight needles, leftover oddments of DK yarn, a tiny amount of toy stuffing, and a mini white felt pompom to complete your adorable bunny design.
This project features easy to follow techniques including:
- * Stocking Stitch for that smooth, classic finish
- * Garter Stitch for added texture
- * Worked Flat, making it accessible for knitters of all levels
You’ll need 4mm single-pointed needles for creating the rabbit and smaller 3.25mm single-pointed needles for the bun. Once completed, the Easter Bunny stands at a delightful height of 11cm (including ears), with a roomy body space that measures 7cm, perfect for hiding a chocolate egg or other sweet surprise!
This pattern not only provides a fun knitting experience but also results in a heartwarming gift that can be cherished and displayed during the Easter festivities. Whether you're knitting for yourself or as a thoughtful gift, our Baking Bunny is sure to steal hearts and bring smiles. Get started on this unique and adorable project today and celebrate Easter in style!
