This pattern makes a cute bunny toy appropriate for babies and small children. The acrylic/wool blend yarn and polyester fiberfill are machine-washable, and I designed the toy to be worked in the round so that there are virtually no seams that could rip or come undone. You crochet the limbs separately, stuffing and joining them as you go, to form a one-piece body, then you add the ears and face on last. Since joining pieces together correctly can be complicated, I’ve included pictures at each stage to simplify the process.
