Hot Cross Bunny & Easter Egg Basket

🐰 Hot Cross Bunny makes a fun Easter gift and measures 19cm including ears.

🧺 His little basket holds a 7cm chocolate egg (ideal Creme Egg Cover) or fill with tiny fluffy chicks.

Baskets can be knitted in any colour and look adorable hung from an Easter Tree.

🥮 You can also knit individual hot cross buns (without added bunny pieces) to use as decorations or play food. Buns are life-size.

An easy-to-follow knitting pattern, using two straight needles and DK yarn + toy stuffing and pompom tail.
