The Mini Bunny Wreath is a quick and simple make using up some scrap yarn to create some cute Easter decor.
The Design Process
Inspiration
I was looking for some cute/minimalist Easter decor and came across a wreath that hangs on your door that had a similar vibe. I thought it was pretty cute and had the “I can make that” mantra going in my head. I had these acrylic rings sitting in my craft bin that I thought would be the perfect base for a mini version of the real thing.
The Yarn
I stash busted and whipped out this leftover yarn from Hobby Lobby that is a category 5 yarn with a neutral tone (Linen). Really any category 5 yarn would do as I feel this pattern would translate well to other yarn types.
Pattern
Materials
- Acrylic ring
- Size J/6mm crochet hook
- I used this yarn in the color Linen leftover from a project but this or this yarn would work well too.
- Scissors
- Yarn Needle

Create a slip knot and place on your hook.
Sc 53 sts around the acrylic ring (see video tutorial on how to do this)
Sl st to first sc, we will now work in rows.

Row 6: Sc, sc2tog, sc, ch1, turn (3)
Row 7: Sc across, ch1, turn (3)

Tie off and weave in end.
Skip 3 sts and join yarn to create second ear.
