This is a knitting pattern for a stuffed toy tiny mohair bunny in it’s spring cardigan. The toy is knitted on 2 needles and then sewn.

NOTE: due to the nature of the yarn and the small needle size, sewing up can be a bit challenging. To make the process easier, use a thinner darning needle. Some knitting experience is recommended.

MATERIALS: oatmeal mohair yarn approximately: 10 - 15 g
mustard fingering yarn approximately: 5 g
handful green fingering yarn for the cardigan’s edges

piece of strong white and black threads for the eyes (I used embroidery threads.)

KNITTING GAUGE:
I did not do a gauge swatch due to the nature of the yarn. The gauge is not critical for this project. You can work with any size yarn and needles you like.
