Crochet BunniesCrocheted Bunnies

Make these cute little bunnies for the holiday. All you need to know are the simple crochet stitches. Try different yarns as we have to change the look and feel of them. A simple crocheted body, pom poms or cotton balls and some felt, chenille stems, fiber fill and fabric paint are all you need. (Most are scraps in your crafting box).

A great project for the beginning crocheter! If you are a beginner, a quick and easy way to learn to crochet is with the Boye Needle kit "I Taught Myself to Crochet", available at all Wal-Mart stores.
