How to Crochet Peep Bunny FREE Pattern

 The Crochet Peep Bunny is so quick and easy to crochet. FAST quick Easter Gift.

I will be honest I had zero idea what my grandson was talking about when he asked for a Bunny Peep. 

Apparently, these Bunny Peeps work for the easter Bunny and like to keep an eye on the children in the lead-up to Easter to see if they have behaved well. 

Think Elf on the Shelf But Bunnies! 

Then at Easter, the bunny peep tells the parents how good they have been for Easter.

This is my grandson's explanation he and his friends have chatted about Peep bunnies. 

Oh to be small again and remember the unlimited magical stories. 

Anyway, after some investigation, I found out that  Bunny Peeps are Small stuffed crochet bunnies. 

I found them on Amazon and they are Adorable

When crocheting Amirugurumi I prefer the Yarn UNDER at the crochet method.

Traditional Bunny peep colors are peep colors: yellow, purple, and pink but you can make them any color you wish. My grandson wanted a light blue one and picked the yarn from my stash
