Assembly Steps

Facial Features

Sculpt eye sockets using thread sculpting between Rounds 6 and 7 (approx 8 sts apart). Secure safety eyes or embroider small black dots. Embroider a 2 st-wide nose at Round 9 and extend a straight vertical mouth line down 2 rounds.

Ears & Head

Attach ears centered across Rounds 1–2 on top of the head. Stitch the head firmly onto the top opening of the body.

Limbs & Tail

Position legs low on the body (around Rounds 3–5). Attach arms just 1 round below the neck seam. Fasten the tail to the lower back, ensuring it acts as a tripod support so the rabbit stands stably.

Belly & Jacket

Center the beige belly panel on the front of the torso (neck to base) and stitch down around the edges. Dress the rabbit in its newly pressed jacket!
