Dandelion — Bunny Cushion Knitting Pattern PDF Download

A bunny knitting pattern for a round rabbit-shaped cushion, worked in DK yarn. Meet Dandelion, a sleepy character cushion with fabric-lined knitted ears, a pompom tail, and an embroidered face.

The instructions are clear and easy to follow, with each stage worked through at a sensible pace. Knitters regularly find the patterns quick to knit up, which makes Dandelion a great gift for anyone who is quietly obsessed with rabbits.

The finished cushion measures 46cm / 18in in diameter. It is worked in two circular panels joined with a zip, so you can remove the cushion pad for washing. The ears are knitted in the round and lined with your own choice of fabric, giving each Dandelion her own personality.

Yarn options are given for two yarns: King Cole Majestic DK and Knit Picks Swish DK. Both are widely available and knit up beautifully at this tension.

A lovely pattern for a nursery, a child's bedroom, or anyone who appreciates a well-made knitted cushion.
