PATTERN NOTES
It is not necessary to use the recommended yarn and crochet hook to make this amigurumi. Using a smaller crochet hook, and suitable yarn, the amigurumi will be smaller while preserving the same proportions.
The pattern is mainly worked using the “amigurumi” method: working in a continuous spiral without closing off the round with a slst. It may help to use a stitch marker in the last stitch of each round, moving it up as you work.

CONSTRUCTION
Cory the Giant Bunny is worked in pieces then sewn together.
