I love to create small, quick projects that make great gifts. A couple of years ago, I created the Easter Bunny Gift Bag and it’s been really popular when Easter rolls around.

Mini Bunny Gift Bag

I decided to make it a little friend! This one is perfect for giving small candy treats and it’s smaller size easily fits in your hand.

You could easily work up many of these with two skeins of Red Heart Baby Hugs Medium. I love using this yarn for baby projects and gift bags because I know it’s tested to be free from harmful levels of over 300 chemicals.
