Crochet a Bunny Bag for Easter Egg Hunts
This bag is a perfect surprise for Easter egg hunts or even as a cute little Easter purse! Just imagine all of the kids running around stuffing their eggs into these bags on Easter. How cute would that be?!
White Easter Bunny or Brown Easter Bunny?
This bag is made with basic worsted weight acrylic, so if you have any kind of yarn stash lying around you probably have everything you need to make at least one of these bags. Your crochet bunny doesn’t need to be white, either. You’d can make it tan, gray, brown or any other color you like! Make up one or several for your spring time festivities.
A Crochet Easter Project That You Will Keep for Years
Personalize these Easter bunny bags with a hair bow or bow tie. Your kids will be able to keep these Easter bunny bags for years and use them for all their egg hunts. Just be sure to personalize them with hair bows and bow ties so everyone knows which bag is theirs!
