Knit Easter Bunny Patterns

I’ve shared a lot of Easter bunny knitting patterns through the years (including my own giant Peep-style bunny knitting pattern, which I’ve now made three times and is just so much fun) but it’s one of those genres that never seems to exhaust itself; there are always more patterns to share. So let’s get into some more Easter bunny knitting patterns.

Speaking of giant bunnies, let’s kick it off with the Fluffy Bunny from Larissa Koedyker, worked in a jumbo (that’s weight 7) chenille style yarn. The pattern is presented as a video and you can purchase access on Ravelry.

I love a good bunny that looks like an egg (or any spring animal that looks like an egg, if we’re being honest) and the Egg Bunny pattern from Annie Ahn makes it easy to make super cute little bunnies for your table or Easter baskets. They’re shown worked with superfine yarn, but you can use any weight of yarn you have handy to make bunny eggs of different sizes. This is available as a free pattern on Ravelry.

Cover a creme egg with a sweet little bunny with this pattern from Secret Garden England on Etsy. This is a great little stash busting project and you can make a bunch of them to cover eggs in your egg hunt and give the kids a little extra prize. It calls for DK weight yarn.

This bunny in a cabbage is meant to cover a chocolate orange or a bath bomb, but it’s super cute on its own. The pattern is from Etsy seller Whiskers Paws and Claws, and it also calls for DK or light worsted weight yarn. Make this one to go with your projects from the Knitting Peter Rabbit book!

And this one is the best of all of the above, a bunny (or chick) that’s a chocolate orange cover and looks like an egg. Bravo, Bizzy Bee Patterns! Again this one would be so cute just stuffed as decoration if you don’t do chocolate oranges, or you can fill it with smaller goodies. It calls for DK weight yarn and the pattern includes options for making a bunny or a chick.

Why should the fireplace get all the fun? Instead of knitting stockings this year, why not whip up a pair of Christmas themed socks? These Christmas sock knitting patterns are lots of fun to make and you can wear them to holiday gatherings for years to come.

For our friends in the southern part of the world, there are the Christmas in July socks from the Kiwi Lodge – Kylie (Ravelry link). These shorty socks are covered in Christmas trees and have bright pink heels and toes for a tropical feel. There’s also an option to make a longer sock if you celebrate somewhere it’s colder.

Twin Stitches Designs (Ravelry) has a fun pattern with mix and match colorwork motifs you can use to build your own cozy Christmas socks. From the sample socks I see Christmas puddings, trucks hauling trees, Santa belts, ornaments and a couple of different borders. There may be more patterns included but the listing doesn’t say. Make a pair that matches or use different motifs on each foot for extra holiday cheer.

If you want to stick to Christmas puddings on your holiday socks, check out this cute pattern from Stone Knits. These lovely socks feature a band of puddings around the leg and a bit of holly by the toes.

These vintage holiday light socks from Grey Owl Knits by Sarah are classic looking and lots of fun at the same time. I love this color combination but of course you can make your lights and stripes whatever colors you like or have on hand. They’re worked using stranded knitting.

And if you’d like even more of a mix of patterns for your socks, try Barbara Ceglédi’s Christmas Chaos socks, a free pattern on Ravelry. The pattern includes 25 little motifs you can choose from, ranging from snowflakes and Christmas trees to elf hats, reindeer and hearts.
