Gray: Color 1 White: Color 2 This way, you can change the color to any ones you want! Each piece begins with a Magic Double Ring unless otherwise stated. Use any type of ring you are comfortable with (i.e. adjustable loop, chain 2, and single crochet in second chain, etc.). Work in one continuous spiral; do not join.
If you have any questions while making this doll or find errors in the pattern, please send me an email at jamigurumicrochet@gmail.com or send me a message on Ravelry.

Fun Tidbits (optional): While stuffing the body and/or head, add a rattle in the middle to make a fun toy! Add weight to the doll by putting weighted poly beads or glass beads in the bottom/tooshie area. This will even help your doll sit better! Merry Crocheting! Bunny Head
