Hello everyone, I’d like to share my first post and first pattern attempt at a bunny amigurumi. I think I made the head too small so when I try again I’ll increase another row. He’s also missing a tail cuz I have absolutely no clue how to smack one on him! The ears curving were also a happy accident! Lolol. I’ve just started crocheting about 3½ weeks ago and would love some pointers!
(I’m hoping I did this post right too. I’m always nervous about posting things on new platforms and manage to mess up)

It’s cute. I am a designer so here’s a few suggestions.
Heads are something I had to fiddle with when it comes to proportions with body.
Make sure there’s 5-7 rows of sc after increases and before decreases. That ensures a more balanced head shape if that makes sense.
For the tail suggestion is to hot glue a pom pom on.
I love how you curved the ears that’s unique and creative.

Ooh okay I didn’t think about pom-poms! I shall grab some when I can. Thank you for the compliment on the ears! They really were an accident, but I’m happy with how they turned out! For the rows SC after inc/before dec, I’m happy to see I did get that right (sort of 
). I’m thinking of bringing the stitch count of the head to the same count as the body. I might add another increase row to the bottom as well or something. I’d like the base to be more flat, y’know? Cuz the little guy can’t stand up very well 
Still, thank you for your advice!

He’s so cute
Welcome aboard
I think the head size is perfect.
As for a tail, make a round little bobble separately and sew it on.
Just poke your needle a few times through the top layer of it’s bum an the bobble. That should secure it. Tie a knot close to the bottom of the tail and hide your end

Okay! I’ll give that a shot on this next one I’m attempting!

It’s very cute I think! One way to get your bunny to sit upright is to place a piece of cardboard or plastic canvas on the botttom ( cut to size).

Oh thank you! That sounds very clever!

Or put a baggie with some sort of material that has weight inside. I don’t remember what they’re called, but I used some that were little plastic bead-like things.

That’s a good idea too!

You can also weight it down. Get polybebbles, a stocking sock (the ones you use to try on shoes), fill the sock with a but of the pebbles, tie knot and put inside your bunny.

So cute! You could make a little pompom and sew that on as a tail?
