Easter is less than a month away, with this, it means Spring is approaching in some countries. Craft Passion’s periodic contributor Lee Mei Li of AmiguruMEI designed an Easter Bunny Amigurumi and named her Ichigo-chan, to welcome and celebrate the Easter with all of you. Feel free to crochet it to add into your Easter decorations, get more Easter crafts here.
Ichigo-chan is a sweet little pink bunny (Ichigo means Strawberry in Japanese) who gets excited and loves to squint her eye when she smiles for photography. She loves everything that is in candy color including candy sours. Easter is her favorite festive of the year because she can eat lots of Easter candy sours that she found during the Easter Eggs hunt. She is known to charm the hearts off any honey-bunny she meets.
Happy Easter and enjoy your Easter Egg hunting with the bunny!!!

Cute as a bunny – opps, it IS a bunny! 😀
I love the little bunny !!! Thank you for the free pattern. I working on it right now,the head came out great and the ears but just have a question about the body part. I did follow the pattern for the body but it seems to be little short and small and does the opening from the body face the head part when you sew it on?
Thank you,Marina
The body is small compare to the head and it is opened when it is sewed to the head.
