I have been very excited to share this graphghan Bunny Wall Hanging Pattern with you and I’m so hoppy the day is finally here.

I often get asked to make a video tutorial for how to do Graphghans so I thought this would be the perfect opportunity to do just that. You may have seen my Corner 2 Corner (C2C) video for many years back which is great for the basics, but I thought it was about time to give it a little revamp!

Not only that, it’s getting a beautiful bunny spin. It’s the ideal project for over the Easter bank holiday. If it’s your first try at a graphgan, then mini eggs work as a wonderful incentive for learning new things….just sayin’ 😉

What you will learn

You can watch the latest video tutorial at the bottom of this blog post. The video tutorial includes how to:

  • Read a chart
  • Forward plan your bobbins for colour changes
  • Increasing your C2C project
  • Decreasing your C2C project
  • Change colours

To assist you in learning this technique, I have created a sample of the pattern which you can download for free HERE. This is perfect for getting to grips with the corner to corner method and reading patterns.

Once you have done this and you feel confident to move forwards you can purchase the 14-page PDF pattern for the bunny wall hanging HERE. The Bunny Wall Hanging is an ‘Easy’ pattern pattern to follow! I often have people ask me if patterns are ‘suitable for beginners’ and my answer would always be “Just give it a go!” Honestly, you might surprise yourself.

Materials

Yarn: MillaMia Naturally Soft Aran, 100% Wool, 50g (1.75oz), 80m, (87yards) 2 balls of Ivory 221 (W) and 1 ball of Stone 202 (G).

You can of course substitute your yarn if you wish. Stylecraft Special Aran (in shades White and Silver) or Paintbox Simply Aran (in shades Paper White and Slate Grey) would both work well. You would need 100g of each colour. 

Hook: 4.5mm

Scissors

Darning needle

Wooden dowel (1.25cm/0.5inch wide and 42cm/16.5inch long)

Bobbins

Glue Gun (although not essential)

The PDF Pattern

About Graphghan & C2C (corner to corner crochet)

A corner to corner graph is worked from the bottom right corner and in diagonal lines upwards. This pattern can be worked from the bottom left corner if you are left handed and the pattern will not be affected. Each of the squares in the graph represents one ‘block’. These blocks are colour coded to represent your colour changes.

You will find the written instructions and the visual chart SAMPLE to work along side the video tutorial HERE. The FULL pattern includes the graph, written instructions and colour block instructions so that you can choose which is the best method to read for you. You will need to make sure you are checking your work every few rows as it can be easy to lose track!

Video Tutorials

I know a lot of you come here for my video tutorials so you can find the assisting video tutorial available in both right and left handed versions below.

When it comes to crocheting a C2C left handed, you will find that your work will come out in a mirror image BUT thats the great thing about C2C..it doesn’t really have a right or wrong side (you just need to think about carrying your yarn on YOUR wrong side).

    I have been looking for a pattern like this for my first go at a graphgan. It’s lovely. Is there anywhere else to purchase the full pattern without using PayPal? Thank you.

    Thank you for adding me to the regular updates, I’m already on your Facebook page. I asked to join because I’m interested in stitches and crochet techniques that I haven’t tried yet, I can read patterns and charts. I’m retired and mainly make blankets as my hands no longer like small tight stitches required to make toys etc. I have just started to make blankets for premature babies for a charity and the blankets need to be fairly hole free, so I’m interested in different stitches which I’ve not tried before.
