Get ready a clean empty vitagen bottle, medium worsted weight yarns (white & pink), 3mm crochet hook, stitch marker, tapestry needle and scissors.
Crochet a base according to the “base pattern” above. The base should be slightly bigger than the bottom of the vitagen bottle.
Getting the right tension is important in order to follow this pattern. For intermediate amigurumi level, if you can’t get the right tension, you might need to do some modification on the pattern to suit the bottle size.
Work upright with the “body pattern”. By R13, you should reach slightly above the groove line of the bottle.
R14 is the decrease round to make the cover follows the contour of the bottle.
Change yarn to white at the last loop-over of the of R14. Continue to crochet with R15.
Follow patterns from R16 to R23, if the tension is right, you should reach the mouth of the bottle.
Cut and fasten off the yarn, hide yarn end into the body.
Crochet the ears by following the “ear pattern” above.
Make a mini pom pom by following this tutorial.
Spare some pink yarns for facial features.
Get ready a pair of wiggly eyes, multipurpose adhesive, tapestry needle and scissors.
Shape the ear by folding the 2 sides to the center and make a few stitches on 3 rows of the sticthes.
Sew the ears securely to the bunny body.
Sew some wiskers on the cheeks and a nose at the center.
Attach the mini pom pom to the back of the bunny.
Attach the wiggly eyes to the bunny, set it aside to dry.
Crochet a red flower by following the above pattern, sew it to the ear.
Make a beads necklace and put in on.
Alternatively, crochet a blue necktie for the male bunny.
