Almost all videos were done without sound. In the video about the moving of
the marker of the round beginning, there is voice acting in Russian. Youtube
allows you to enable automatic subtitles in any language when watching a video
on a computer/laptop. This function is not available in the mobile version.

Introduction
Crochet in spiral rounds, do not connect the end and the beginning of
the round with slip stitches.
When crocheting in a spiral, the crocheting shifts to the side. The
amount of shifting depends on your crochet density, thread tension,
crocheting method (crosses or check marks) and the crocheting of
decreases. Your shifting may not match mine. I crochet with check
marks and make invisible decreases.
The pattern contains video lessons on how to move a marker of the
round beginning. The pattern of a whole crocheted toy in a spiral
cannot be universal for everyone, since everyone has different
shifting. You do not need to change the description to suit your
density, you only need to learn how to move the marker of the round
beginning.
But even if you don't follow the shifting and your round moves no
more than 30 degrees, you will have a great bunny with its head
turned to the side.

crochet as one piece, starting from the head:

1. start in the second chain from the hook: 4 sc, 3 sc in the last chain,
on the other side of the chain: 4 sc, 3 sc in the first chain (there is no
chain left for them, crochet through the remaining loop after
turning in the opposite direction) (14)

marker and move the marker.

17. 7 sc, (dec, 1 sc) х 5, 3 sc, 4 inc (28)
In rounds 18-20, the increases should go strictly in front and behind.
Further, the decreases will be in front of the chest, and the increases
will only be along the back.
If in round 18 you see that the increases will not go away from the back,
but have moved strongly to the side, you need to dissolve this round
and move the marker of the round beginning.
Before dissolving the round, decide which direction the shifting is going
and what you need to align the crocheting. You will need to either
crochet extra stitches and move the round beginning a little forward, or
dissolve the last few stitches of the last round and move the marker of
the round beginning a little back.
IF THE SHIFTING IS NOT CRITICAL AND YOU LITERALLY DOUBT
ONE STITCH, CROCHET ACCORDING TO THE PATTERN WITHOUT
MOVING THE ROUND BEGINNING. YOU WILL BE ABLE TO MOVE
THE ROUND BEGINNING IN THE NEXT ROUNDS IF YOU NOTICE
THAT THE SHIFTING INCREASES GREATLY.
WHEN WE CROCHET THE HOLES FOR THE FORELEGS, THERE WILL
BE A VIDEO TUTORIAL ON HOW TO MAKE A SHIFTING SO THAT
THE LEGS ARE IN THE CENTER.

7 sc, sl st, ch9, skip 9 sc on the body, sl st in the next stitch, 3 sc, sl st,
ch9, skip 9 sc on the body, sl st in the next stitch, if the holes are
shifted to the side, you need to move the marker of the round
beginning.

Finish the round: 8 sc, (inc, 4 sc) х 2, inc (54)
When crocheting from cotton yarn, I did not make a shifting in this
round. When crocheting from velvet yarn, I moved the round beginning
one stitch back. If your density is different from mine, you may need a
different number of stitches for the shifting.

Finish crocheting later.
STUFF WITH FIBERFILL:
Stuff the head tightly enough, especially pay attention to the lower part of
the head, if there is not enough fiberfill in it. Then further we may not have
to tighten the muzzle. Pay attention to the neck, the head should not dangle
and shifted to the side. Stuff the chest well, from the neck to the foreleg.
Stuff only the upper three rounds of legs, do not stuff the lower part, the
forelegs should remain flat. The chest should smoothly go into the legs, if
the leg does not look down, then it is necessary to add fiberfill in the chest.
Stuff the body, keeping the bend in the back.

Face Decoration
Make a needle sculpting of the eyes.
Lower points of the needle sculpting are between rounds 15-16.

EMBROIDER A NOSE:
Mark points with pins. The upper part is between rounds 10-11.
The middle part is one round below. The bottom is five rounds below
the center. Width of the nose - 6 stitches.

THE FIRST OPTION FOR SEWING ON THE EARS:
Fold the ears in half. The upper part should be pulled out one
stitch, the lower part is slightly deepened. Fix the ears to the head
with pins: the upper part of the ear is in round 6, the lower part is
one round below.
Sew on the ears. So that the ears do not stick out and look down,
sew 2 more rounds along the bottom of the ear to the head.
Bring the thread ends to one stitch, tie them together and hide
inside the head.

THE SECOND OPTION FOR SEWING ON THE EARS:
Fix the ears with pins: the upper part of the ear to round 3, the
lower part to round 7. The ears are located obliquely, the upper
part is one stitch closer to the front, the lower part is slightly
behind.
Sew on the ears. Bring the thread ends to one stitch, tie them
together and hide inside the head.

Assembly
SEWING ON THE HIND LEGS AND TAIL:
Fix the hind legs with pins, check that they serve as additional
support. If it is sewn too low, then the bunny will stand unstable.
My lower part of the leg is sewn obliquely between rounds 41-44,
the upper part to round 40. To prevent the legs from dangling,
additionally sew 2 rounds of the upper part of the leg to the body.
VIDEO: sewing on the hind legs
Fix the tail with pins: lower part to round 39, the upper part to
round 31. Sew in the same way.
