Hi and warmly welcome to Fluffy's Crochet Corner!
Today I show you how to crochet ears, arms and legs for your amigurumi rabbit or bunny
We begin with long ears. Do a magic ring and insert 6 single crochets.
After you did your 6 single crochets pull the magic ring tight
In the next round do 6 increases
Come out with 12 single crochets
In the next round do [1 single crochet, increase] 6 times
Come out with 18 stitches
Next do 10 simple rounds with 18 single crochets each
In the next round do [7 single crochets, decrease] 2 times
I like to use the invisible decrease technique, which you do as follows
Insert hook into the front loop of the first stitch, then into the front loop of the second stitch
You now have 3 loops on your hook. Pull your yarn through two of them
And then pull it through the resulting two loops
Do 4 rounds with 16 single crochets each
In the next round do [7 single crochets, decrease] 2 times
Of course you best use the invisible decrease technique again
Therefore insert hook into the front loop of the two stitches
Get your yarn through two of the three loops on your hook
and pull it once again through the remaining two loops
Afterwards you do 4 rounds with 14 single crochets each
In the next round do [5 single crochets, decrease] 2 times
Afterwards do 4 rounds with 12 single crochets each
Sew the ears to the head
Always do one stitch into the head and then one into the last round of the ear
And then pull it really tight, so you cannot see the stitch anymore
When you are back where you started
Tie yarn end to the ear and hide it somewhere inside the head.
Next we do the arms.
Start with a magic ring and insert 6 single crochets
And pull tight in the end
In the second round do 6 increases
Come out with 12 single crochets
Do two round with 12 single crochets each
In the next round do [single crochet, decrease] 4 times
Use the invisible technique if you like
Come out with 8 stitches
Do 7 rounds with 8 single crochets each
Ready you are with the arm, you may now cut your yarn end
Stuff a little filling into the hand
and sew the arms to the body.
As you see here, I personally like to see on the legs first and do the arms afterwards, but you may also sew them on now, this is up to you.
Start the legs with a magic ring and 6 single crochets as you are now well used to
Pull tight at the end
Then once again do 6 increases
and come out with 1 stitches
Then do 4 rounds with 12 single crochets each
In the next round do [4 single crochets, decrease] 2 times
At the end you should have 10 stitches left
Stuff just a little bit
From now on you do a small bit in rows
To get the first row, press the foot together like this and do 5 single crochets, inserting hook always through two stitches of the last round
Chain 1 and turn
and do 5 single crochets back
Then chain 1, turn and do another 5 single crochets
This time, you do not chain, but do a decrease by just crocheting on without it,
then do 1 single crochet
and one decrease. I use the standard decrease technique, here, because it is better when working in rows, I think
Ok, so now we have to work our way up.
In order to do so do 12 single crochets in a circle onto the foot as follows:
Start with 3 single crochets at the back
then do another 3 at the side
(no surprises here)
but then you have to work right across the foot like this with another 3 single crochets
(always get one single crochet of the foot on your hook and then work your single crochet around it)
finally do another 3 single crochets on the other side
and come out with 12 stitches
In the next round do 12 single crochets
In the next round do 2 increases at the front, apart from that do single crochets around
this is where I do my two increases
and then go on with single crochets until the end of the round and come out with 14 stitches altogether
Same thing in the next round: 2 increases at the front, apart from that single crochets around
Come out with 16 stitches
And one last time: 2 increases at the front, apart from that single crochets around
End up with 18 stitches
Do 2 rounds with 18 single crochets each
In the next round do [single crochet, decrease] 6 times
Afterwards you stuff the foot.
Now, this is a bit tricky, because the amigurumi will stand best when the foot is tightly stuffed, but it looks nicer when there is just a little bit filling in the foot...
So, you decide what is more important
Then you do 6 decreases to close the leg
When you have done the other leg in the same way you sew both legs onto the body
Last thing we have to do is the tail.
I do it in rose according to the heart on the front, but of course you can do it in any colour you like
Once again you start with a magic ring and 6 single crochets into it
Then increase 6
Come out with 12 stitches
In the next round do 12 single crochets
Then decrease 6
Stuff the tail a little
And sew it to the body
So this is you easter bunny!
Thanks for watching and of course have a nice easter holiday you all!
See you soon on Fluffy's Youtube channel.
