Switch Things Up

I love experimenting with different color combinations for this Lily Bunny pattern - imagine how stunning she'd look in soft pastels like mint green and coral, or even in sophisticated neutrals like cream and dusty rose. The dress opens up so many creative possibilities too; you could add tiny buttons, a belt, or even crochet a matching hat or purse for extra charm.

For those wanting to make her even more special, consider adding small details like a crocheted flower for her ear or a tiny bow around her neck. The beauty of this pattern is how adaptable it is to your personal style while maintaining that classic, timeless appeal that makes amigurumi so beloved.

Common Mistakes & How to Fix Them

✗ Forgetting to stuff the arms only 2/3 full, which can make them too stiff and bulky for proper positioning ✗ Not maintaining consistent tension when working the dress ruffle, leading to uneven or puckered fabric appearance ✗ Placing safety eyes incorrectly between rounds 8 and 9, resulting in asymmetrical or poorly positioned facial features ✗ Overstuffing the head and body, which can distort the shape and make seaming difficult during assembly

FAQs

What size will my finished Lily Bunny be?

When using the specified materials (sport weight chenille yarn and 5mm hook), your finished bunny will be approximately 35cm (about 14 inches) tall.

Can I use different yarn weights for this pattern?

While you can substitute yarn weights, it will change the final size. Using heavier yarn will make a larger bunny, while lighter yarn will create a smaller one. Adjust your hook size accordingly.

Why should I only stuff the arms 2/3 full?

Partially stuffing the arms allows them to hang naturally and be positioned more easily when sewing them to the body. Fully stuffed arms would be too rigid and bulky.

How do I create the ruffled skirt effect?

The ruffle is created by working in the front loops only of round 8, then doubling the stitch count with double crochets. This creates the natural gathering effect that forms the ruffle.

What's the best way to embroider the facial features?

Use small, careful stitches for the eyebrows and muzzle with brown thread, and create a small triangular nose with pink thread. Practice on a sample piece first if you're new to embroidering on crochet.
