3D Beaded Sea Bunny Pattern – PDF Tutorial
A cute & chubby sea bunny inspired by "Jorunna parva", the tiny sea slug also called "sea bunny" (because it clearly looks like a cute lil bunny!)
The finished piece measures approximately 1.1" x 0.9" (2.8 x 2.3cm) with Toho round seed beads, or 0.9" x 0.7" (2.3 x 1.8cm) with Miyuki Delica beads, and makes a perfect keychain, phone charm, monitor buddy or decorative trinket. ♥

This pattern mainly uses circular peyote stitch. While it's suitable for ambitious beginners, it does require patience and attention to detail.
