Happy Easter

The Easter season is upon us, and I've been working on creating an amigurumi bunny to go with the basket I crocheted.


Pattern below, along with plenty of process photos.

And now, for the ears! (n.b. the nose is with the same yarn that I used for the basket, as are the ear bits.)

Need:
Yarn (I used sport weight I Love This Yarn! from Hobby Lobby)
Contrast yarn (for nose/ears; I used Crystal Palace Yarns Party in "spring picnic")
Safety eyes
Stitch marker(s) as preferred
Tapestry needle
Crochet hook - F/3.75mm -- I crochet very loosely. Feel free to adjust as necessary


Head/Body:
Magic loop: 4 stitches (or other preferred method). (4)
2: Increase every stitch (make 2 sc in each sc space) (8)
3: Make [1 sc, inc in next stitch] 4x (12)
4: Make [2 sc, inc in next stitch] 4x (16) 
5: [3 sc, inc in next stitch] 4x (20)
6: [4 sc, inc] 4x (24)
7: [5 sc, inc] 4x (28)
8: [6 sc, inc] 4x (32)
9-13: sc every stitch (32-5x)
14: 20 sc, then work cheeks on remaining 12 stitches: 2sc, inc 2x, 4sc, inc 2x, 2sc (36)
15-17: 20 sc, then: dec, sc, inc 2x, sc, dec 2x, sc, inc 2x, sc, dec (36-3x)
18: [6 sc, dec] 4x (32)
19: [2 sc, dec] 8x (24)
20: [3sc, dec] 4x (20)
21: sc around (20) (I stuffed the head, added eyes, and sewed the nose on here)
22: [4 sc, inc] 4x (24)
23: [5sc, inc] 4x (28)
24: [6sc, inc] 4x (32)
25-26: sc around (32-2x)
27: [7sc, inc] 4x (36)
28-30: sc around (36-3x)
31: [8 sc, inc] 4x (40)
32-33: sc around (40-2x)
34: [9 sc, inc] 4x (44)

14: sc around (5)
15: sc, dec 2x (3)
16: sc around (3) and bind off. (Add stitches for interior of ear. I did this by picking a spot near the top and threading the contrast color through, then doing this twice more through the same top loop but different bottom loops.)

Magic loop 5 stitches.

4-5: sc all (9-2x)
Bind off, stuff as necessary and attach to bunny.

Tail:
I looped yarn and knotted it together to make a poofy tail.
