For body (Sock No. 1) follow basic instructions on pages 7 and 13 with the exception of step 7. To pull face upwards stitch across back instead of front (Figure 1, above).

FRONT LEGS: See Bunny’s front legs on page 11. To achieve the down paws effect insert wires into legs and bend into L-shape (Figure 2). (See page 33 for tips on wiring.)

FACE: Cut toe from sock, stuff and sew to head (Figure 3). Add a red pom pom for a comical nose. For a doleful mouth, embroider a modified upside down V-shape and sew a lolling, long red felt tongue underneath it (Figure 4).

EARS: Cut two pieces from sock and two from pink felt (Figure 5). Sew together, leaving opening for turning. Turn and sew to side of head with ears hanging down.

EYES: Cut circles of brown felt and sew to face. Sew white buttons on circles. For a droopy look, cut crescent-shape pieces of felt and sew over so that only part of eye buttons show (Figure 6).

TAIL: Make a stubby tail from a roll of sock and sew to body.

TRIM: Add a woe-be-gone hat (see page 31 for hat designs) or a floppy ribbon bow.
