Free Pattern Friday: Freezer Bunny REVAMP

Welcome to Free Pattern Friday! Today's pattern is a 5" tall amigurumi of Freezer Bunny from The Sims series. The pattern is available on Ravelry or you can find it written below. If you have any questions, feel free to email me at icrochetthings@gmail.com.

This is the beginning of what will probably be another project that I will never complete: remaking all my previous patterns that are not up to my current standards. I will still keep the old pattern up on my blog, but it will be changed on Ravelry.

A couple days ago I decided that this pattern needed a serious makeover. First of all, I used my preferred E hook instead of an F hook, which made it a bit smaller. The eyes on the first one are almost the same size, which they shouldn't be, so I increased the size of the larger eye. Another part I modified was the arms, tweaking it so you start with a standard ch 2, 6 sc instead of 5 sc. I also used a darker pink for the ears and nose, and changed the pupils from yarn to felt to make them more even.

Here's a before and after:

Materials:

▪  Worsted weight yarn in light pink, dark pink, medium pink, white, black

▪  Felt in black

▪  E hook (3.50 mm)

▪  Stuffing

▪  Scissors

▪  Tapestry needle

▪  Felting Needle

Difficulty: Easy
You should know how to work in the round, increase, decrease, and work in the back loops.
