Crochet Lavender Bunny Cap for Babies & Children

Quick and Too-Cute Crochet Gift

A while back, I found this really too-too cute crochet pattern for a lavender bunny done in amigurumi style. It was written by Rheatheylia at craftster.org - you can find that pattern here. After making a few of the bunnies for charity, though, I got to wondering ...

How cute would that little lavender bunny be as a little cap?

That's all it took - I was off like a herd of turtles trying to come up with something just right. And I'll admit it; I'm terribly proud of the final crochet cap. It will be a gift for my youngest niece.

When you use this pattern, make sure that you use stitch markers. The cap and bunny ears should be crocheted in the same way as amigurumi, which means that you do not join rounds. This leaves a perfectly seamless, utterly adorable look.
