Have you been working on Ichigo or Marshmallow for the past few weeks?
No time! :OOO
No worries! We have gotten ready for you a free bunny pattern that is achievable within a week, just in time for Easter!
This time, we’re going to use Sirdar Snuggly DK yarn to make this little bunny called Toki. It is small and cute and you may attach it as a keychain to your bag. Bring it wherever you travel and you’ll never feel alone!
Snuggly DK, just like what it’s name suggest, is really REALLY snuggly! No joke. One of my students, Jane, is currently using our Snuggly yarn to make her Marshmallow and the turnout is really sweet!
Hope to see her completed bunny done in time for Easter!
Recently, I’ve also remade my Lazy Unicorn – Yuni Chan – using the beautiful colours from Snuggly. It is really soft and cuddly! The colours are very pastel. Seems like Crown has found itself a competitor!
This is an easy pattern provided that you have already attended our Tiny Rabbit Hole’s Beginner (Level 2) workshops or equivalent! If you have not, feel free to visit our Youtube to learn how to crochet a simple round ball.

Instructions
- Our amigurumi are mostly done in continuous rounds starting with a Magic Ring. You don’t need to end with a slip stitch. Do use a stitch marker to mark the last stitch of every round at all times.
- You may wish to download the Counter+ app to help you with your counting.
- Please crochet the stitches tightly to prevent the polyfiber stuffing from showing. However, do not crochet too tightly otherwise it’ll be difficult to continue.
- Be sure to push the washer down only the first screw of the safety eye to prevent bulging.
- Always stuff your amigurumi firmly till the point that it feels bouncy.
- Always leave a long tail for sewing.
- When felting, ensure that the needle is perpendicular to object.

Finishing
Sew on the ears using the yarn needle; use the sewing pins to hold the ears in place. To create a little dent in the ears, pinch the base of the ears a little before sewing.
[optional] You may add blusher below the eyes and on the ears using a pink blusher, or run a felting needle with pink felted wool onto the ears. You may use black embroidery thread and an embroidery needle to sew eyelashes at the corner of the eyes.
