Dear fellow crochet lover,

First of all, thank you so much for wanting to make Lola the Bunny that I created
especially for the Festival Amigurumi organised by The Sewing Box Magazine. I hope that
you will enjoy recreating her as much as I loved designing her for you!

We are more than happy for you to gift or sell any items made from this pattern but would
love if you could credit @littleaquagirl as the designer.

Much love, time and effort have gone into designing this amigurumi pattern for you and
would appreciate if you do not share, reproduce or sell this pattern either in its entirety or
in parts.

We always love seeing your finished creation, so please do use the hashtags
#littleaquagirl and #TheLittleHook on Instagram!

Never hesitate to contact us through our Etsy shop should you have any questions with
regards to the pattern and we will do all we can to help you as best as we can!

Keep creating cuteness with stitches!

With love,

PATTERN INSTRUCTIONS: This pattern is written using American terminology and is worked in continuous rounds unless
otherwise stated. If Lola is made with the materials described, she is ~14 cm/5.5 inches long from her nose to the back of her body.

SKILL LEVEL: Beginner

MATERIALS REQUIRED (DESCRIPTIONS IN BRACKETS INDICATE THOSE USED IN THE


PICTURED EXAMPLE):
1. Yarn (Krea Deluxe Organic Cotton yarn 50 g in (A) Colour 17 or Grey, (B) Colour 33 or Aqua, (C) Colour 02 or Off White). One ball of each

colour is sufficient.

2. Crochet hook in accordance with the yarn you use (2.5 mm hook)

3. Fibrefill / toy stuffing

4. Black and Brown embroidery thread (DMC Perle Cotton Thread Size 12, Colour 310 - use single strand for eyes, DMC Cotton Six-Strand

Floss #3727 - use six strands for nose)

5. Stitch markers, darning and embroidery needles

ABBREVIATIONS: ch = chain | dec = decrease | inc = increase | rnd = round | sc = single crochet |
sl = slip stitch | st = stitch

A VERY QUICK GUIDE TO THE CROCHET STITCHES USED IN THIS PATTERN:


1. Chain (ch): Insert hook, yarn over, pull loop through loop on hook.

2. Decrease (dec): I prefer the “invisible” decrease. For this, insert hook into front loop of first stitch (from the front and under). Repeat

into front loop of next stitch. Yarn over and pull loop through two loops on hook, yarn over and pull loop through two loops on hook.

3. Increase (inc): Work two single crochets into the same stitch.

4. Magic ring: Wrap yarn around fingers to form a loop. Insert hook through middle of loop. Pull working end of yarn through ring and chain

the required number of stitches through. Pull the yarn ends to close the loop.

5. Single crochet (sc): Insert hook, yarn over, pull loop through stitch (there should be 2 loops on hook), yarn over, pull loop through both

loops on hook.

6. Slip stitch (sl): Insert hook, yarn over, pull loop through stitch and loop on hook.
