Sew legs to the body.
After drawing the thread, fold it in half and pull the needle through as shown in the photo.
5th row from the top (for legs).
11th row from the top, counting from the neck (for the body).
Sew with one stitch, repeating 5-6 times. Secure and hide the thread.
Here’s what I’ve achieved at this stage.
Ears (2 pieces) – Large Bunny
1: 6 sc in MR
2: 6 inc = 12
3-4: 12 sc
5: (sc, inc) * 6 = 18
6-7: 18 sc

35: 9 sc, sl st
36: dec, 5 sc, dec, ch 1 = 7
37-38: 7 sc, ch 1
39: dec, 3 sc, dec, ch 1 = 5
40-41: 5 sc, ch 1
Crochet sc around the edge. Leave thread for sewing to the head.
Sew the ears to the head.
Find sewing points “by eye”, but let me explain:
Look at our toy from the front.
Find the “stripes” of decreases.
There are six in total, three on each side.
We need the outermost ones. From the 3rd, go up to the decreases above.
First, sew the left ear. And next to it, sew the right… I marked the sewing points as seen from above.
“3” is the third decrease we counted earlier. From it, go down 2 rows and sew the left ear.
To sew the second ear, go 3 stitches to the right at the same level and sew it there.
Eyes (2 pieces) – Large Bunny
I decided to make crocheted eyes. For this, I needed cotton threads. I used IRIS.
With black thread, crochet the pupil.
1: 6 sc in MR
2: 6 inc = 12
3: (sc, inc) * 6 = 18
Switch to white thread.
4: 2 inc, 3 sl st in 1 stitch (as an increase), 3 sl st, 2 inc
With white thread, form the rays and sew it with a hidden stitch to the head.
Sew the white part, leaving a “pocket” in which we hide all the threads, creating the eye convexity.
With black thread, make 14 ch (two pieces), this thread is needed to form an arrow above the eye.
1: I didn’t sew the pocket, I glued it instead.
2: I also glued the arrow above the eye.
3: I hid the threads inside the head.
Weights
Make them on both sides separately.
Insert the thread from under the chin.
By picking up one sc, return the thread to the chin.
