I previously linked to a free pattern for a chipmunk softie made from the “Happy Gloves” book by Miyako Kanamor. Miyako also published a book called “Sock & Glove“, which provides step-by-step instructions on how to turn socks and gloves in to lovable softie characters.
You can now find the free pattern and instructions for the dog AND the bunny from the book on the Martha Stewart website:

Great step-by-step pictures and instructions. And a clever way to recycle socks and gloves of course

The step-by-step directions are excellent with online links to specific stitches mentioned. There is no template - you just draw freehand the bunny shape to your liking. Also included are instructions on how to make a pom-pom tail. Too cute!
