Welcome to a slightly different pattern instructions! This pattern was designed online using a program that allows you to design the graph for free! Yes, free! It takes a bit of getting used to but once you get the hang of it, it’s a huge help when you work it up. They even include a row highlighter so you can easily keep track of where you are in the graph. I have linked to everything below and you can even get straight to my design to follow along there. This was a really fun pattern to design and work up. Watching the face of the bunny come together is really exciting to watch, every row has a meaningful impact! I really hope you enjoy this as much as we did!

Baby Bunny C2C Throw

Pattern Notes:

This pattern uses traditional C2C methodology. We are using two different yarns with different gauges so there are slight modifications we’ll make to adjust for that. We need to maintain the same block sizing for each yarn type so there are some small tweaks to look out for! For a refresher on how to work that up, see C2C spotlight stitch below.
