It’s getting close to Easter season! I always get egg-stremely egg-cited for the egg-scuse to egg-sersise egg-ceptionally egg-stravagant egg puns! Go ahead, egg me on!

Okay, no more yolks. 🙂

To celebrate Easter, amigurumi-style, you can crochet up this little guy with my free Easter Bunny pattern.

Hoppy Easter! I hope you have an egg-cellent holiday!

• pink worsted weight yarn for the nose
• 8 mm safety eyes
• polyester fibrefill
• size 7 (4.5 mm) crochet hook
• yarn needle

Abbreviations:

• ch = chain
• st = stitch
• sc = single crochet
• inc = single crochet 2 into the same stitch
• dec = decrease over next two stitches (single crochet 2 stitches together or use invisible decrease)
