How to Make a Bunny Rabbit

Step 1:

Take the two large round pieces of cardboard and stack them together, ensuring they are perfectly aligned. Wrap the yarn around the cardboard multiple times.

Step 2:

Use sharp scissors to carefully cut through the loops.

Step 3:

Take a piece of yarn and insert it between the two cardboard pieces. Tie a double knot securely.

Step 4:

Carefully remove it from the cardboard. Trim any long strands.

Step 5:

Gently comb the strands. This will be the body of the bunny.

Step 6:

Repeat steps 1 to 5 with the two small round cardboard pieces to make a smaller pom-pom. This will be the bunny’s head.

Step 7:

Take the yarn and wrap it around two of your fingers 40 times.

Step 8:

Gently remove it from your fingers. Take a small piece of yarn and wrap it around the loops. Tie a knot twice to secure it in place.

Step 9:

Cut the loops, comb the strands, and trim them as you did with the larger pom poms. This will be the bunny’s tail.

Step 10:

Glue the pom poms together as shown in the photo below. Trim them if necessary.

Step 11:

Cut out the front and back pieces for the ears, nose, and eyes from the felt paper. Then, cut four strings to equal lengths.

Step 12:

Glue the front part to the back part of the ears. Then, apply glue to the bottom, fold it in half, and hold it in place until it dries. Finally, glue the middle of the strings to the back of the nose.
