Move 2 rounds back downwards and insert the pin with a disk so that decreases of round 9 look frontwards. I used 22 mm joint disk for arms (in order for the arms to fit closely to the body, the diameter of the joint should be equal to the width of the arm at the attachment point). You may have other parameters for the joint diameter!
Please note: I created a DIY tutorial on making cotter pin joints for toys, which is attached additionally.
Stuff the arm, do not stuff the upper part of the arm too tightly, it should stay flat.

Step 6. Pilot Bunny decoration
1. Tighten the faces
Outline the points for sculpting on the face of a bunny to form eyeholes and mouth.
At this point, fix the thread (I advise using the yarn you used to crochet the head) under the chin and draw the needle upwards to point 1, the needle passes inside the head.
Insert the needle in the point of the mouth 0 and pull it out upwards to point 1 (right eye), the needle passes inside the head. Skip 10 stitches, insert the needle in point 2 and pull it out in the point of the mouth, tighten. Repeat the above-mentioned steps, tightening the thread. Repeat the instructions for the left eye, at the end tie a strong knot.
Attach the eyes, embroider the nose, and embroider brows and mouth. You can slightly tone the mouth and the areas around the eyes.
Please see the scheme of face sculpting.
2. Ears and heels decoration.
Outline the contour of the ear on fabric and cut out two parts (they should be the same size as the ears or slightly larger). Sew the cut parts with an invisible stitch, folding the excess fabric inward.
Crochet round the ears in sc.
Sew ears in a position at your discretion.

22 rnd: 38 sc along the right leg, 38 sc along the left leg (76)
23-30 rnds (8 rnds): 76 sc (76)
31 rnd: (17 sc, dec) х 4 (72)

2-13 rnds (12 rnds): ch, turn, 9 sc (9)
