These adorable cuddly crochet bunny peeps are so easy to make you will have tons done in time for Easter. 🙂 All you need to make these crochet bunny peeps is some yarn, a hook and a nice hot cup of coffee or tea.
So easy a beginner can have a crochet bunny peep done way before Easter. I created this pattern several years ago and after a few revisions I think I am finally happy with the end result. Don’t get me wrong the first pattern made a comparable crochet bunny peep. Sometimes we are our own worst enemies. Along with the pattern I first released I made a couple of YouTube videos, they have gotten over 50,000 views. If you would like to check out the videos click here.
The beauty of this pattern is that depending on the type of yarn and size of hooks you can make small peeps. First ones I made were not even five inches. I used a size G hook with Sugar and Cream yarn. Knowing what I know now I would have probably used an F hook for a tighter stitch. Hindsight is 20/20 🙂
