This long bunny ear is crocheted from the tip of the ear toward the base using a magic ring. It features a white outer ear with a pink inner section, creating a simple two-color design.
The ear is worked in rounds, beginning at the tip of the ear and continuing downward. Once the desired length is reached, decreases are used to shape the ear base, which will be sewn onto the head.
