Peter Rabbit

Welcome to a delightful knitting pattern for creating your very own Peter Rabbit, complete with his iconic little blue coat featuring charming brass buttons! This cuddly piece is my heartfelt homage to the beloved childhood classic, perfect for both children and adults who cherish the whimsical world of Beatrix Potter.

This adorable little Peter Rabbit is crafted (almost) in one piece, using a clever technique that allows you to join as you go. The only part that needs sewing separately from the main body is his charming hind feet, making this a relatively simple project for knitters of varying skill levels.

For my creation, I’ve selected a high-quality fine 4-ply merino yarn mix from Lang Yarn. To add depth and character, I’ve doubled up two complementary colors, producing delightful 'wild rabbit' tones that bring Peter to life. This unique color combination enhances the overall appeal of your finished plush toy.

In addition to the yarn, you will also need a pair of 16mm toy safety eyes to give your rabbit a lifelike gaze and some toy filling to ensure he’s cuddly and huggable. With these materials on hand, you’ll be well-equipped to embark on this charming knitting adventure.

AND - don’t forget! There’s a comprehensive YouTube video available that illustrates how to assemble your rabbit and tips on how to give him the most realistic look possible (even though he's made from yarn and not real fur!) The link to this helpful video tutorial is conveniently included within the pattern, ensuring that you have all the guidance you need to create your own enchanting Peter Rabbit.
