Lovely baby bunny!!



So, do you all remember this cute picture? It's from my blog post on 1/26/2013 (click the date for the post).
Well, in the post, I talk about how I learned how to make the bunny ears, but never posted a pattern.

It's getting close to the holiday, and I know many people will be looking for some cute bunny ears, so here you are! You can attach these adorable oversized ears to any hat. I made a basic hat and used this newborn diaper cover.

Materials:
I used Caron Simply Soft yarn in grey
I/9 hook
yarn needle

Abbreviations:
ch = chain
dc = double crochet
dctog = double crochet together

Oversized Bunny Ears
Ch 7
Row 1: dc in 4th chain from the hook. Turn (5dc)
Row 2: Ch 3 (this will count as 1 dc throughout), dc in each dc. Turn (5dc)
Row 3: Ch 3, dc in same st, dc in next 3 dc, 2dc in last dc.  Turn (7dc)
Row 4: Ch 3, dc in each dc. Turn (7dc)
Row 5: Ch 3, dc in same st, dc in next 5dc, 2dc in last dc, Turn (9dc)
Row 6: Ch 3, dc in each dc. Turn (9dc)
Row 7: Ch 3, dc in same st, dc in next 7dc, 2dc in last dc, Turn (11dc)
Row 8-9: Repeat row 7. Turn. (13dc row 8, 15dc row 9)
Row 10 – 11: Ch 3, dc in each dc. Turn (15dc)

Row 12: Ch 3, dctog in next two dc, dc in next 10dc, dctog in last 2dc. Turn (13dc)

Row 16: Ch 3, dctog in next two dc, dc in next 2dc, dctog in last 2dc. Turn (5dc)
Row 17: Ch 3, dctog in next two dc, dc in next dc, dc tog in last 2dc. (3dc)
Fasten off. Weave in ends.

Sew the ears to the hat.
