The Perfect Crochet Color Change
I don’t know about you, but I dislike color changes in crochet-in-the-round intensely. I just hate (a strong word, I know, but still) the way the new color “bites” into the old color making a jagged and obvious border. I just HAD to find a solution to the problem.
So I huffed, and I puffed and I… No, wait. There was no actual huffing or puffing, I set my mind and crochet hook to the task, and figured it out.
It’s actually very simple.
First Round
Single crochet as instructed by your pattern. Change color in the last stitch of the round – final yarn over and pull through with the new color.
Second Round
Slip stitch in back loops only for the entire round.
This is how it looks when the slip stitch round is done:
Third Round
Single crochet in back loops only for the entire round.
Fourth Round
Continue crocheting as your pattern indicates.
Isn’t that a nice, clean, straight color change?
Even the back looks nice. The “step” caused by the color change is barely visible. If you join at the end of the round (instead of the continuous rounds I used for this example) you won’t see it at all.
Enjoy!

Tail (đuôi):
I used a pom pom for this bunny which I show you how to do in the video tutorial. It's quick and easy and you do not need any tools other than your fingers and yarn.
Wrap about 75 or 80 times around 3 fingers. Tie off the middle. Cut through the loops. Trim and then sew to the bunny.

Assembly:
If you assemble the doll in the order I give you then you will not have to worry so much about centering the different parts as much.
1) Sew the arms on. These get sewn directly under the head
(may tay vào ngay dưới đầu)
2) sew on the legs. How you sew the legs on is up to you. I wanted this bunny to be in a standing position so I sewed them on in a way the doll stands up. View the video on how to do this at 32:25 minutes

(May chân, tùy vào các bạn muốn thỏ đứng hoặc ngồi có thể may vào vị trí khác nhau)
3) sew on the ears. Pin them in place before sewing them in helps. But again, view the video for tips on sewing this part. Also you can add in a pipe cleaner to make the ears poseable if desired. Simply bend over a pipe cleaner and push the bend inside the ear. Add in a few stitches to ensure the pipe stays put.

4) sew on pom pom tail

(May đuôi vào)
5) you can add in toes or leave the foot as is. Wrap yarn around the front of the foot in 3 different sections. Pull tight and bring yarn tails out through the leg, knot them off and hide inside the leg. Go over the yarn lines with a brown or black embroidery thread to give the toes some definition. View video at 46:43 for how to do this.
6) Add in the face. See video for the different options. I show how to add in the nose and mouth and also how to paint in the eyes or use French Knots for eyes
This is one placement for the ears but you can also sew them up a bit higher and closer together. Try different areas on the top of the head and make sure you are happy with the placement before sewing them permanently in. View the video for placement and sewing tips
