Red Heart Speckle Yarn Crochet Bunny

Remember my Speckle Bears?! Well now we have Speckle Bunnies! Red Heart Super Saver Jumbo Speckle Yarn is a fairly new yarn with unique hand-dye speckles that look like confetti sprinkles!

See all 6 shades of Red Heart Speckle Yarn HERE on Yarnspirations.com.

How sweet is the pink color?! It’s called Bubblegum so I am lovingly naming this cutie Bubblegum Bunny. I used the basic pattern from the speckle bear but created large floppy ears, left off the snout, and added a fuzzy pom-pom tail!

Tail:
With a medium or large Pom-Pom Maker, create a big fuzzy pom tail and attach it to the back bottom of your bunny. I have a fun little Instagram Reel showing this HERE.
The tail also gives the bunny good balance to sit up.
