Willow The Bunny
Willow is a shy little bunny, so don't be surprised if she's a little hard to find sometimes! She loves her friends at the farm and having tea parties with the girls, but sometimes she'd rather take a nap in a shady spot by her favorite tree. Willow loves that part of the farm because it's always covered in wildflowers, which she collects and weaves into beautiful flower crowns for herself and her friends. Doesn't she look so cute in it?

The looser stitch pattern makes the beanie slouch more easily and it makes the hat a little breezier and perfect for Spring. And how pretty is this dusty pink color next to the white?
