Bunny Towel Holder – 1980s Crochet Pattern: Instant PDF Download

Size: 10¼” x 11″

A crocheted towel holder is one of those small vintage touches that makes a kitchen feel finished, and this bunny design does it with charm. This vintage 1980s pattern shapes worsted weight cotton into a full standing-bunny silhouette, complete with a colorful stitched heart panel on the body and a hand-embroidered eye. As one of the sweetest animal-themed decorations in this collection, it’s finished off with a peach ribbon bow, painted wooden hearts, and beaded dowel loops that slip right over a towel bar — a lovely handmade addition to any farmhouse or cottage-style kitchen.
