You now have a miniature, seamless bunny perfect as a charming keychain, bag charm, or decoration. The continuous construction, minimal sewing, and playful popcorn arms/feet make it unique and fun for gifts or quick projects. Ears, arms, and legs are integral-so no extra pieces to sew on!

Pattern Correction

• Always double-check the popcorn positioning (arms and feet) for symmetry.
• Do not overstuff-just enough for a plump but not hard bunny.
• When working ears, be sure to create both evenly on the sides.

Tips

• For a neater join, pull the yarn through all final stitches tightly before knotting.
• Experiment with variegated yarn for special effects.
• If you find closing the magic ring tricky, practice with a slightly larger hook or with acrylic yarn first before using cotton.
