At this point, place the safety eyes between rounds 35-36 (which correspond to rounds 9-10 of the head section) with 6-7 stitches between them.
Round 41: Work (1 single crochet in next 4 stitches, decrease) 6 times around [30 stitches total] Round 42: Work (1 single crochet in next 3 stitches, decrease) 6 times around [24 stitches total]

Sew the opening closed securely. Using pink cotton yarn, embroider a simple nose on the front of the face.
Creating Flora the Bunny’s Limbs
The legs and arms are created using the same technique, giving your bunny a cohesive look:
Using brown yarn and a 5.0 mm crochet hook, make 2 identical pieces (each serves as both arms and legs):
Chain 54 stitches. Starting from the second chain from the hook, work 1 slip stitch in each chain to the end of the row.
Pull one chain assembly through round 9 of the body, spacing them about 10-11 stitches apart. Place a wooden bead on each end to secure. Pull the other chain assembly through just below the head and place wooden beads on each end. This creates both the arms and legs in one step.
Crafting Flora the Bunny’s Ears
The ears give your Easter bunny its distinctive character. Using brown yarn and a 5.0 mm crochet hook, make 2:
Round 1: Create 6 single crochets in a magic ring [6 stitches total] Round 2: Increase in each stitch by making 2 single crochets in each stitch [12 stitches total] Round 3: Work (1 single crochet, increase in next stitch) 6 times around [18 stitches total] Round 4: Work 1 single crochet in each stitch [18 stitches remain] Round 5: Work (1 single crochet in next 2 stitches, increase in next stitch) 6 times around [24 stitches total] Round 6: Work (1 single crochet in next 7 stitches, increase in next stitch) 3 times around [27 stitches total] Rounds 7-8: Work 1 single crochet in each stitch for 2 rounds [27 stitches remain] Round 9: Work (1 single crochet in next 7 stitches, decrease) 3 times around [24 stitches total] Round 10: Work 1 single crochet in each stitch [24 stitches remain] Round 11: Work (1 single crochet in next 6 stitches, decrease) 3 times around [21 stitches total] Round 12: Work 1 single crochet in each stitch [21 stitches remain] Round 13: Work (1 single crochet in next 5 stitches, decrease) 3 times around [18 stitches total] Round 14: Work 1 single crochet in each stitch [18 stitches remain] Round 15: Work (1 single crochet in next 4 stitches, decrease) 3 times around [15 stitches total] Round 16: Work 1 single crochet in each stitch [15 stitches remain] Round 17: Work (1 single crochet in next 3 stitches, decrease) 3 times around [12 stitches total] Rounds 18-20: Work 1 single crochet in each stitch for 3 rounds [12 stitches remain]
Close the opening with single crochets, leaving a long yarn tail for attachment. Sew the ears securely to the top of the bunny’s head.
Adding the Decorative Bow
The bow adds a charming finishing touch to your Easter bunny. Using your choice of colored cotton yarn (contrasting with the brown) and a 4.0 mm crochet hook:
Work with double strands of yarn throughout:
Chain 32 stitches and join into a ring with a slip stitch. Row 1: Chain 1, work 1 half double crochet in each stitch around, join with a slip stitch. Row 2: Chain 1, work 1 half double crochet in each stitch around, join with a slip stitch. Row 3: Chain 1, work 1 half double crochet in each stitch around, join with a slip stitch. Row 4: Chain 1, work 1 half double crochet in each stitch around, join with a slip stitch.
Leave a long tail for assembly. Wrap the yarn several times around the middle section to create the bow shape. Sew the completed bow to the front of one ear on your bunny.
