• Make one large and one small pompom. Hold the pair of large rings together and wrap the yarn around them until covered. • Wind the yarn into a long, caterpillar-shape to make passing it through the hole easier. • The more yarn you use, the fluffier your bunny will be!
• Snip the yarn at the edges of the two rings with scissors. Open the rings and tie a strand of dental floss between them. • Gently remove the card rings, fluff up the pompom and trim away any uneven strands. • Repeat with the two small rings. • Stick the two pompoms together with craft glue and leave to dry.

• Cut out two ear shapes from the felt. Fold in half vertically and secure the fold with glue at the base. • Stick the ears onto the small pompom with glue. • Cut small felt circles for the eyes and nose and glue in place. Tear some cotton off the cotton wool ball, roll into a tail and glue in place.
