Whim & Sie - Funny Little Bunnies 

Now, in my opinion, the hardest part of this project is NOT over-stuffing the body. Thebody will be bent in half and sewn together to form legs - so if you stuff too much, it's goingto be hard to get bunny to 1. set level and 2. not look like a 'blob' with ears.If there is an easier way to explain this pattern - it is escaping me, as I originally had allpieces of this written up last night, but felt as if it was still lacking in exact explanations.  

On to the pattern. 

Pattern: Advanced Beginner/Intermediate 

Materials Used in Model: Red Heart® Classic® WW 4-Ply Yarn in White, Baby Pink and Cornmeal

poly-fil fiberfill Size US F5/3.75mm crochet hook 2- 6mm black plastic beads (lg eyes) 2- 4mm black plastic beads (sm eyes) Crochet Needle for sewing Long Straight Pins to position before sewing 

Whim: (Larger Bunny) Head: Make 1 The head is made by one rnd becoming 2 separate rounds - these will be labeled in theRnds as "a" and "b" (Ie: Rnd 3a: sc in ea st around = xx sts) 

with Cornmeal: chain 6, Inc in 2nd ch from hook, sc in ea of nxt 3 sts, 4 sc in end ch st - turn piece to allow you towork up the other side of original beg chain (as if a flat round), sc in ea of nxt 3 sts, Inc innxt st (14 sts)  ___ Rnd 2: hdc-Inc in nxt st, sc in ea of nxt 5 sts, hdc-Inc in ea of nxt 2 sts, sc in ea of nxt

5 sts, hdc-Inc in nxt st (18 sts)  ___ Rnds 3-6: sc in ea st around (18 sts/ea rnd)  ___ Rnd 7a: sc in ea of nxt 4 sts, skip nxt 12 sts, sc in ea of nxt 2 sts *ear made* (6 sts)  ___ Rnds 8a-19a: sc in ea st around (6 sts/ea rnd) Finish off, leaving about 12 inches of yarn tail to sew. Stuff ear ever so slightly, justenough to maintain the shape and close rnd and make 'tail' available for sewing by weavingin and out of loops in BLO (this creates the 'flat' at the end of ear) and bringing the tailthrough the center and out the bottom of the ear stem and out through back of head (closeto bottom or where you will want to attach head to body). 

Continuing from Rnd 6 - 

 ___ Rnd 7b: skp nxt 3 sts from last st on rnd 6, join with sc in 4th st, sc in ea of nxt 5 sts*ear made* (6 sts)  ___ Rnds 8b-19b: sc in ea st around (6 sts/ea rnd) Finish off, leaving about 12 inches of yarn tail to sew. Stuff ear ever so slightly, justenough to maintain the shape and close rnd and make 'tail' available for sewing by weavingin and out of loops in BLO (this creates the 'flat' at the end of ear) and bringing the tailthrough the center and out the bottom of the ear stem. With tail, and in FLO, whipstitch theopen 3 sts between the ears closed. Finish with tail and bury end inside head. 

Body: Make 1 The body is made by one rnd being separated by folding in half then stitched together torepresent the appearance of legs. 

with Cornmeal: chain 9, Inc in 2nd ch from hook, sc in ea of nxt 6 sts, 4 sc in end ch st - turn piece to allow you towork up the other side of original beg chain (as if a flat round), sc in ea of nxt 6 sts, Inc innxt st (20 sts)  ___ Rnds 2-15: sc in ea st around (20 sts/ea rnd)  ___ Rnd 16: Dec nxt 2 sts tog, sc in ea of nxt 6 sts tog, (Dec nxt 2 sts tog) twice, sc in eaof nxt 6 sts, Dec nxt 2 sts tog (16 sts)

Finish off leaving about 12 inches of tail for sewing. Stuff pocket - DO NOT OVER STUFF(fold in half before sewing open end closed to gauge stuffing) With whipstitch, sew opening closed using the FLO - fold in half and insert needle into aboutthe 4th rnds of both front and back - sewing the piece on itself and creating the appearanceof front and back legs. Make several passes if needed to create the look which is pleasingto you or to tighten. 

Pushing on bottom and sides, shape piece so that it has a flat base enabling it to stand onit's own. 

Tail: Make 1

Chain 3, In 3rd chain from hook make a bobble st. ** Bobble stitch is basically a group of double crochets in the same st-joined together. Yarn Over, insert hook into st, Yarn Over, pull up a loop, Yarn Over, pull through two loops,(Yarn Over, insert hook in same st, Yarn Over, pull up a loop, Yarn Over, pull through twoloops) 3 times, Yarn Over,and draw through all loops on hook - finish off and sew tobackside. 

Pin Head to body and step back . . . . :) Make sure that the head and it's weight is in a position that will not topple the little thingover.. that would be bad!Once you have the head in a good position, mark where you'd like to see the eyes of yourbunny - either embroider or place 6 mm bead eyes in at this point then sew head to bodyand smile :) You're all done.. 

umm.. except, now you have to make a Sie.. (same principals.. smaller version :) Now that you have an understanding of how the pattern works - the same techniques will

apply in the nxt source of information

Sie: (Smaller Bunny) Head: Make 1 

with Baby Pink : chain 3, Inc in 2nd ch from hook, 4 sc in end ch st - turn piece to allow you to work up the otherside of original beg chain (as if a flat round), Inc in nxt st (8 sts)  ___ Rnd 2: Inc in nxt st, sc in ea of nxt 2 sts, Inc in ea of nxt 2 sts, sc in ea of nxt 2 sts, Incin nxt st (12 sts)  ___ Rnd 3: [sc in nxt st, Inc in nxt st , sc in ea of nxt 3 sts, Inc in nxt st] twice (16 sts)  ___ Rnd 4: sc in ea st around (16 sts)  ___ Rnd 5: [ Dec nxt 2 sts tog, sc in ea of nxt 6 sts] twice (14 sts)
