Fall is here and there is no better way to celebrate than with a whole new collection of themed bunnies! Since this is our last month, we’re going out with a bang! This month’s theme is Harvest Festival and it might just be my favorite one.
First up we have an acorn! Going on walks during the fall, you’re bound to spot loads of these on the ground, this one is just cuter than the rest. Next, we have a few sweets, a candy corn and a caramel apple! I can’t decide which one to eat first! And lastly, we have the sweetest sunflower, this one looks like it’s wearing a little sun hat!
The base for the bunny is the same as the one that can be FOUND HERE. This post is only sharing the modifications needed to make each character. You will need to reference back to the original Chubby Bunny Crochet Pattern when crocheting each piece. Under each character I have listed the specific materials needed to complete each design.
I hope you have fun making these Harvest Festival Bunnies!
Let’s get crocheting!
