To help the bunny stand, use very little stuffing in the legs and sew them flat. 4. Facial Shaping and Decoration Eyes: Place them at the mid-level of the head, leaving about 5-6 stitches between them. Nose and Mouth: Embroider a small triangle nose with pink thread. Use black thread for the mouth line and whiskers. Embroidery: You can embroider flower patterns onto the body after finishing the crochet, or sew on tiny crocheted flowers. Base (Stand): To prevent the bunny from tipping over, you can crochet small circles (12-18 sc in MR) and sew them to the bottom of the feet to act as a stand. Tip: To achieve the texture in the photo, make sure your stitches are quite tight. This prevents the stuffing from showing through and helps the toy maintain its upright form.
