With Spring around the corner, naturally, the next ‘stare’ we need to make is a Bunny. (Chocolate eggs, anyone?)

The pattern is achieved by using stranded colourwork and, in my opinion, this hat needs a pompom on the top, because a Bunny isn’t a Bunny without it’s round poufy tail. The yardage requirements don’t include the yardage to make a pompom, so if you are wanting to add one, be sure you have approx. 40 yards extra.
