The yarn

Firstly, here is the info about the yarn. One of the perks of being a crochet pattern maker is that yarn companies sometimes give me yarn to try out. This time I got to try the Honey Bunny yarn from Hobbii, and I HAD to make a bunny with it! Also, I got some safety eyes and stuffing!

You can also use a different yarn. It doesn't really matter, just find a yarn that you like and a matching hook and you are good to go.

Grab your hooks, and let's get started!
