Meet Fluffle. Fluffle loves getting pedicures and playing hopscotch. He also loves scratches on the top of his head. But what he especially loves is playing peek-a-boo with his floppy ears.

Fluffle’s two-toned ears are worked flat in two pieces that are joined with single crochet. The remaining pieces are single-crocheted in continuous spirals with easy shaping. Photos and detailed instructions for assembly and face embroidery are included.

Did you know that a group of bunnies is sometimes called a fluffle? How adorable is that? (Other collective nouns for rabbits include colony, bury, warren, trip, trace, wrack, flick, and nest.) With a name like Fluffle, this little guy is begging for a few friends. Why not crochet a fluffle of Fluffles?

This pattern uses US crochet terminology.
