Crochet Rabbit And Bear Amigurumi Pattern
Meet a cute set of crochet rabbit and bear that are both fun and useful. These little friends are designed to sit on a flat base and hold small items in their arms. They can be used as desk organizers, pencil holders, or pincushions. The same body pattern is used for both, while simple changes in ears and face details turn them into a rabbit or a bear.
The designer of this pattern is @mongleinae. She makes themed crochet pouches and little decorations that are always elegant and gift-ready. In one word, she is among the most CREATIVE crochet designers whose work I have covered so far. Just take a look at her octopus pouch!
