It’s spring! And, even though I may be too late for Easter with this bunny, I hope that you will have lots of fun weaving and spool knitting a darling Springtime Bunny.
You’ll need: A ball of pink yarn (I used Bernat Denimstyle in Weathered Rose)
A Potholder Loom,a weaving hook, a chopstick,a crochet hook,
a 4 peg spool knitter, a loop lifter,
a craft needle, a ruler, a dime, scissors, about an ounce of polyester stuffing,
about 10 inches of red yarn, a paper punch for circles, a paper punch for the heart,
or cut it out of junk mail freehand, thick craft glue, a bee button (ONLY for older children - NEVER use buttons, charms or beads on any toy or doll that you give to any child that is under the age of 7 years old), about 2 square inches (5 cm) of black felt for eyes.
Weave one square on your potholder loom, using two strands of yarn held together.
Spool knit the following cords with all 4 pegs, using only 1 strand of yarn:
For the ears: 2 cords that are each 4 inches (10 cm) long
For the paws: 4 cords that are each 2 inches (5 cm) long.
Now, click on the video, and make yourself a Springtime Plushie Potholder Loom and Spool knitted Bunny!
