BEFORE YOU START
You need to be familiar with how to change colors using the “yarn under technique”. To do so, here is a great blog post that describes how to do this.
You also need to make sure you carry the non-dominant yarn along when switching colors and crochet over the color not used. Gently tug the non-dominant color to minimize show-through and make sure to carry your non-dominant color on the wrong side of your work.
K, let’s do this!

This is adorable! Could you please provide a pattern for one bunny?
This is adorable!! Could you please provide a pattern for one bunny?
Thank you! And yes, I have plans on making an individual bunny! 🙂
Have you been using the "yarn under technique" throughout the entire project, or just for changing colors?
Good question! I only do yarn unders for when I am changing colors in tapestry or intarsia crochet. 🙂
