Hi everyone!

I found this pattern on Pinterest and I have crocheted it because I liked the design. The creator of this model is Irina Lelyakova, but as expected I also found some mistakes that I corrected. So I invite you to choose which model you like best: the rabbit with the long sweater or the one with the bare belly.

For the leaves make 2 chain of 5 ch with green color yarn, on the top of the carrot.

ASSEMBLY:

• Sew the head to the body and then the ears.
• Embroidery the nose in triangle on 3sc and 2 rows.
• Embroidery the muzzle.
• Glue the plastic eyes with a diameter of 5 mm on the head or sew 2 black beads with a diameter of 3 mm with a distance between them of 1-2 sc.
• Sew the hands to the body.
• Sew the carrot in front on the sweater.
• Sew the tail on the back.
• To make the ears stand straight, I sprinkled them with hairspray!

FAT RABBIT WITH LONG SWEATER

The head, hands, ears, tail are crocheted in the same way.

The body must be worked in the same way only that the color of the sweater will change from round 10.

The model I used for the sweater is the one in the photo below, only I lengthened the rabbit’s body a little at the top, due to the fact that I added two more rounds to the model and it shouldn’t have been.
