About the Pattern

This whimsical Bunny Ice Cream Cone is a delightful, pocket-sized project that combines seamless circular knitting with simple flat-knitted pieces and tiny crochet accents. The waffle-textured cone is worked from the bottom up, while the sweet bunny head is knitted in a textured stitch pattern before being stuffed and seamed together. This is a quick, rewarding project—perfect for gift-giving, keychains, or clearing out your precious yarn scraps!
