- Laying-Down Bunny: 4.5 inches wide by 3 inches tall
- Sitting-Up Bunny: 3.5 inches wide by 4.5 inches tall
Materials Needed:
- Worsted weight, feltable yarn (for larger bunnies, consider using bulky yarn with US 13 (9 mm) needles)
- US 10.5 (6.5 mm) double-pointed needles

Notes:
With just one skein of yarn, you can create several adorable bunnies to share with loved ones. A fantastic choice for group crafting or holiday gift projects! For a unique texture and finish, we recommend combining the Frog Tree Brushed Suri with a worsted-weight wool yarn, using both held together to create a delightful depth of color.
