Peony the Bunny for Beginners Amigurumi Pattern

I have been blogging for a long time but I realized that I have not shared a beginner crochet bunny. Especially for those who have just started making amigurumi toys or who will make a crochet bunny for the first time, this toy will be quite educational and developmental. The color you choose when making the toy is up to you. If you visit the designer’s Instagram profile, you can see examples of the bunny made using different colors of yarn, but I will also prefer white.

Peony the Bunny for Beginners Crochet Pattern Step by Step

You need to use a 2.2 mm crochet hook when making the toy. Although the bunny is made using conventional crochet techniques, making the bunny can be a bit boring for beginners because the number of stitches is high, but I recommend you to be patient.
