Free Bunny Sleep Mask Crochet Pattern

Bunny sleep mask crochet pattern

Thanks for checking out my Bunny sleep mask crochet pattern. Sleep masks are a great sleep aid for children, especially to help them nod off on light summer nights and daytime naps. They also make fun blindfolds too! This cute eye mask is part of my bunny nightwear collection. Check out my matching Bunny Dolls Onesie crochet pattern, a matching kids bunny onesie pattern is coming soon too!

Bunny sleep mask description

The bunny sleep mask is suitable for all ages. Its designed for kids but it will certainly fit adults too! The sleep mask is thick and sturdy and is decorated with bunny ears, a cute little nose and sleepy eyes. The mask has elastic around the back to hold it to the head.

How it’s made

The bunny sleep mask crochet pattern is easy skill level. You will need to know all your basic crochet stiches as well as good sewing and tapestry skills. Overall its a very fast, easy crochet pattern. To make the crochet eye mask I used Aran (weight 4) yarn in 3 colours. I also used a 5mm crochet hook, elastic and a sharp sewing needle. The eye mask uses approximately 29g (58m/65yd) of yarn.
