The micio is doubled when used for the bunny’s tail - you could also use brushed alpaca by blue sky alpacas to get a similar result (also double it to make it full and dense). Which ever color you intend to use for the crochet edging, get 2 skeins of that color, all other colors need only 1 skein. I used a machine washable cotton fabric for the back (anna maria horner).
