I always make folded crochet Christmas trees and folded fabric Christmas tree decorations each year and decided this year it was time to make an Easter version. I opted to make an Easter rabbit, and went for two different designs the first using circles and the second using granny squares. These little rabbit decorations are perfect for decorating with this Easter and also make great gifts. They can be made in any colour you choose making them perfect for customising. You could also make these a little smaller if required y only using 3 of the circles.
I haven’t got enough time left to make a fabric version of these this year, but next year I will definitely be making some!.
