Round 4: Chain 1, *make 1 single crochet stitch in each of the first two stitches, then make 2 single crochet stitches in the next stitch* repeat from * to * around. Slip stitch to join the first stitch to the last stitch. (24 stitches)

Round 13: Chain 1, *make 1 single crochet stitch in the first stitch, then make 1 single crochet decrease stitch in the next stitch* repeat from * to * around. Slip stitch to join the first stitch to the last stitch. (12 stitches)
Fasten off and sew the remaining hole closed with a yarn needle. Leave a long tail to use as a tail for the bunny.
To make the bunny's ears, take two pieces of yarn and fold them in half. Insert the crochet hook into the stitch where you want to place the ear. Then, fold the yarn loop in half and put the crochet hook through it. Pull the loop through the stitch and make a slip knot. This will secure the yarn in place. Repeat this process to attach the second ear.
Next, create a small pom-pom using the same color yarn as the bunny's body. To make a pom-pom, wrap yarn around a fork or a pom-pom maker until you have a thick bundle of yarn. Then, tie a piece of yarn tightly around the center of the bundle. Use scissors to cut the loops on both ends of the bundle and fluff the pom-pom with your fingers.
Finally, sew the pom-pom onto the back of the bunny's body using a yarn needle and some matching yarn. Make sure it is securely attached so it won't fall off during playtime.
Congratulations, you have completed your adorable little bunny crochet pattern! You can use this pattern to create a whole family of bunnies in different colors or gift it to a special child in your life.Happy crocheting!
