Leaping Spring Hare

At just 10cm in length this little leaping hare is quick and simple to make. Only a small amount of yarn is needed making it the perfect pattern for using up any leftover yarns. Whether made as Spring gifts, decorations, place settings or to be hung on a garland or Easter branch , you will find that before long you have hooked up a whole family of hares. The body is worked in one continuous round, and the ears and tail are worked separately and attached after. I used a 4ply cotton yarn for clear shape and definition.
