Boz loves bunnies and was insistent that he get a pair of bunny slippers. I told him not to wear them outside, but does he listen?? He does not. Nor does he take them off. He LOVES his slippers!

This is a PATTERN for crochet, teaching you how to make Boz and his bunny slippers; it is NOT a finished product.
