Embroidering the mouth & the eye lashes :
Thread your embroidery floss / thread on a yarn needle. You will need 50 cm / 20 inches long thread to embroider the whole facial parts. Insert your needle from the open bottom of the head. Leave a 5 cm / 2" long tail dangling out. Bring your needle out from the hole numbered as 1. Insert the needle into hole numbered as 2 & come out from number 1. Go in & out number 1 & 2 three times to create the nose / vertical bar as shown in the photos. Then insert the needle into the holes numbered as 5 & bring it out from the hole numbered as 6. Insert the needle into the hole numbered as 7 and bring it out from the open bottom of the head. Make a couple of tight knots to secure the facial parts. Cut the excessive thread tails. All done :) Ready to sew head & body together.
Sewing head & body together :
In order to be able to sew head & body together nice & steady / wobble free; first put a little bit more stuffing inside the head. Start sewing the head and body together and stop half way to add as much stuffing as necessary without putting too much or too less. Then you are good to go. Finish sewing and then fasten off.

Scarf Instructions :
Make a slip knot & crochet 50 chain stitches. Turn the back side of the chain where you will see horizontal stitches look like the runner stitches as you see in the photo below. Needle is to show you both horizontal stitch and the 4th st, and then half double crochet into the 4th horizontal stitch to create a button hole. Carry on crocheting half double crochet until the end of the chain. Cut a tiny yarn tail to sew the button on the edge of the scarf. I used a 1.50 cm plastic button, but you can use any button you have in your button jar. Wrap the scarf twice around the bunny's neck and button it up.
