Today I will introduce you to a beginner amigurumi pattern and the designer has a very nice surprise about this amigurumi pattern. You can make this amigurumi bear, but you are aware that if you make its ears like a bunny ears, it can turn into a nice bunny. When you come to the part of the amigurumi pattern about the ear design, you will also see that there is a bunny ear design.
Plush Bunny and Bear Beginner
In this way, you can also make a bunny amigurumi toy if you wish. I was really happy that the toy was at a beginner level because I really want you to be able to make such toys during the long winter nights. Making amigurumi is a really nice hobby.
