INSPIRATION FOR THIS CROCHET BUNNY PATTERN

This design idea came from a fun campaign by Hobbii Yarns! If you search the hashtag #EasterCraftsWithHobbii on Instagram, you’ll see all the beautiful Easter crochet projects!

Thanks for sending this super fluffy yarn! I used the Hobbii Honey Bunny yarn to make a super cute bunny pouf! It’s super soft and cuddly and I loved working with this yarn!

So this project initially started off as a basket and then evolved into a bag and finally its is now a pouf. I honestly made the panels too big and it wasn’t working out! But I am happy with how it turned out and it’s a versatile project with many uses and I love how to the front panel turned out. It’s also the first time I added real blush to a project to give it those cute cheeks!

I am also excited to announce an epic giveaway by @hobbii_yarn for this challenge!! Share your versions of my basket and be sure to use the hashtag #EasterCraftsWithHobbii and tag @hobbii_yarn on April 8th for a chance to win a Hobbii Friends yarn delivery including 20 skeins of Cotton 8/4, 8/6, or 8/8 in the winners’ favorite colors.
