**UPDATED** I’ve updated parts of the pattern for Emma the Easter Bunny, it’s easier and looks better now! Enjoy!

Hey there!

This is the first time I’ve posted a new pattern two weeks in a row! If you follow me on any of my social media you’ve seen me make all three of these Emmas and you also knew that I was gonna release the pattern today.

Emma is just super cute little bunny that is a fairly easy amigurumi to crochet as well.

That’s really all I have to say, I hope you enjoy the pattern!

Size: Emma measures approximately 17cm high and 8cm wide.

Difficulty: Easy.

Notes: This pattern is written in English, US crochet terminology and SI units are used throughout. I use a smaller hook size than the yarn calls for to get tighter stitches. All parts of Emma are worked in continuous rounds.
