Take yarn tail from carrot and thread through Yarn F loops, then insert tied end of loops into the carrot hole. Take the carrot tail and weave through each st of Round 10, then pull tightly to close hole (which will also close around Yarn F loops, securing them in place). Cut Yarn F loops approx. 3cm (1¼in) from top of carrot.

Crochet Rabbit Assembly

Using tail left at end of each ear, sew ears to top of head, roughly in line 2 rows behind eyes. Sew nose onto the head using sewing thread or invisible thread for a neater result.

In black embroidery thread, sew an upside down ‘Y’ below the nose, approx. 1cm (¼in) in height.

Using tail, sew body to head. Position feet on bottom of body facing slightly outwards from each other, and use tails to sew in place. Using the tail of arm, fold the end of each arm so it is flat and sew opening together, then sew arms to side of body. Sew tail to bottom.

With a length of Yarn B, tie a neat bow around the big bunny neck.

To place hat on big bunny, pull each ear through corresponding chain space hole on either side of hat.

Repeat these steps for baby bunny, but only sewing a small line below nose.
