March 24th, 2018 | 8 Comments | by Nea
**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!

Merci beaucoup pour le patron, ce lapin est si mignon!
De rien, I’m so glad you like it! 🙂
Leuke patronen vandaar mijn vraag of ik de patronen in het Nederlands zou kunnen ontvangen
I’m glad you like my patterns but unfortunately I can’t provide them in Dutch, since I don’t speak it 😉 It already takes a lot of time and effort to post my patterns in English so I’ll probably not translate them to any other languages anytime soon, I hope you understand 😊
Rows 16-25 . This seems to be longer than the illustration of Emma seems to indicate. Could this be an error? Shouldn’t decrease rows begin sooner.
Hehe yeah, I agree with you, it doesn’t look like it needs that many rows. But I’ve counted, and I’ve followed the pattern myself quite recently, so it is correct… 😅
Love this bunny and just found her in time for Easter! After crocheting gnomes for Christmas, this is a much needed pattern to bring in Spring! Thanks for making it free!!!!
Aww, thank you! 🙏😊
