| Jade Rabbit Lantern- Osmanthus Rabbit | Fancy Dyed Lace |  106#Sprout |
| Jade Rabbit Lantern- Peach Blossom Rabbit | Fancy Dyed Lace |  101#Peach Soda |
This lantern flower design comes in two styles: Osmanthus Rabbit and Peach Blossom Rabbit. The crocheting method is similar for both, with only the color schemes and flowers differing. Each consists of two parts: the toy and accessories. First, complete the crocheting of the toy, then make and attach each accessory.
The handcrafted measurements may have an error, the size of the sample is for reference only.
Materials: Susan's Family 4-Ply Combed Cotton & Acrylic Fibre Hand Knitting Yarn & Combed 3# Lace & Fancy Dyed Lace
Hook: 1.75 mm crochet hook
Note: When crocheting in rounds, you need to start with a standing chain, and at the end, connect with a slip stitch and pull tight. The turning chain for single crochet and the joining slip stitch do not count as 1 stitch, while the turning chain for double crochet counts as 1 stitch.
