Description of crocheting amigurumi bunny Star with a hook
All parts of the toy are crocheted in a spiral, without lifting loops. To make the legs and ears in the right places, you need to follow the marker of the beginning of the row. On the hind legs, it goes exactly in the center at the back, on the body — a straight line in the center of the back and on the head — a straight line in the center of the back of the head. If the row leads, remember to make displacement loops.

Ears (2 parts)
We crochet two parts with half double crochets (hdc). We crochet very loosely, stretching the loops. The length of the ear should be about 27-28 cm, the height of one row is 1.2-1.5 cm. We start crocheting with 2 ch or with an additional color thread (bright pink 80309):

Row 1: 6 hdc in the second loop from the hook or in KA (6)
Row 2: 6 inc (12)
Row 3: (1 hdc, inc) x 6 times (18)
Row 4: (2 hdc, inc) x 6 times (24)
Row 5: (3 hdc, inc) x 6 times (30)
Rows 6-7 (2 rows): 30 hdc (30)
Change the thread color (pink 80319).
Rows 8-10 (3 rows): 30 hdc (30)
Change the thread color (light pink 80303).
Row 11: (3 hdc, dec) x 6 times (24)
Rows 12-13 (2 rows): 24 hdc (24)
Change the thread color to the main one (white 1002).
Row 14: 24 hdc (24)
Row 15: (2 hdc, dec) x 6 times (18)
Rows 16-18 (3 rows): 18 hdc (18)
Row 19: (1 hdc, dec) x 6 times (12)
Rows 20-22 (3 rows): 12 hdc (12)

Fold the part in half, crochet 6 sc along both edges of the loops. Secure the thread and cut it off.

Nose
We crochet with a 2.5 mm hook, with pink YarnArt Jeans thread.

Row 1: 8 sc in the second loop from the hook or in KA (8)
Row 2: 8 inc (16)
Row 3: 16 sc (16)

Make a sl st, secure the thread and cut it off. Leave a long tail for sewing.

Tail
We start crocheting with 2 ch or with an amigurumi ring with an additional color thread (bright pink 80309):

Row 3: (1 sc, inc) x 6 times (18)
Row 4: (2 sc, inc) x 6 times (24)
Row 5: 24 sc (24)
Row 6: (2 sc, dec) x 6 times (18)
