A bunny that’s all about comfort! Knit this adorable soft toy bunny with its own blanket and slippers, perfect for baby gifts or Easter.

Here is some additional information if needed to assemble the slippers after they have been knit.

The slippers are independent of the bunny and a separate piece. Take the slipper and fold it so that the row ends are together. This seam will eventually go at the heel of the slipper. Sew down the row ends. The cast on row and cast off row will be in half so that the first and last stitch meets at the end where the seam is. Sew along the cast on row and then the cast off row too. The whole piece will be sealed. Then it is just a matter of folding it in the correct way. Take the piece and open it up so that the cast on row goes along the bottom of the sole from front to back. You then invert the top of the sole so that the cast off row goes inside the centre of the slipper. It will make a sort of long bowl shape. Then attach the top of the slipper at the front.

The slippers can be a little tricky. If you take the sole and fold it so that the row ends are together and sew down them. This will eventually be the at the heel. The top and bottom will still be open at this point. With the piece in half, look at the piece sideways with the seam you have just created in your left hand and the fold to the right. Then take the cast off edge and push it inside the lower part of the piece so that it meets up with the cast on edge and they are now touching. The slipper will want to go into an oblong bowl shape and will want to curl naturally. You then sew up the seams and it will be the right shape ready for the top of the slipper.
