 Coconut oil finished ring and Natural non-finished ring

To condition the ring: I used coconut oil and a soft clean cloth to rub the oil into the wood to give it a warm patina and a bit of extra protection - of course, you can leave it in it's natural state.

Allow at least 24-48 hrs for the oil to be absorbed into the wood before adding the Bunny Ears (blot with a paper towel to see if it has been absorbed; if oil is transferred to the towel, then allow more time to absorb).

The Bunny Ears are created using alternate rows

ch1 - TURN after each row (unless otherwise stated)

Follow the instructions as you read them from left to right/top to bottom

This pattern has been designed with this particular yarn

Using a different yarn may yield similar but different results

** Tie off and make another **

** DO NOT tie off on second panel - continue to joining instructions ** 

JOINING THE PANELS TOGETHER:

  • Place both sides together
  • ch1, sc through both sides of the panels, all the way around and back to the beginning
  • Finish off with an invisible join or a sl st
  • Weave in the end

To attach to the ring:

  • hold both the "ear" ends together making a loop with the long middle part
  • put the middle loop through the centre of the wooden ring (with the back side facing if using a contrast)
  • then thread the ears through the loop and pull tight to secure

Voilà... you are finished; enjoy your new Bunny Ear Wooden Teething Ring!
