This is a pattern for a hand crocheted resting mat for rabbits. It is beginner to intermediate level crochet work.
Wire cages are the most sanitary housing for rabbits. Certain rabbit breeds are prone to sore hocks, and resting mats are the perfect solution, giving relief to little bunny feet.
The instructions are written in standard American crochet pattern notation, suitable for left or right handed stitchers. All necessary materials and tools are listed on the pattern. The pattern makes a mat 12 inch by 12 inch, and includes instructions to adjust sizing if desired. Mats can be made from chew safe hemp and twine. The holes in the mat are about 1 inch square, and will help keep your rabbit sanitary by letting poo drop through. The pattern includes tie down cords for the corners, so that it is safe and secure in the cage.
This is a hard (paper) copy pattern. The hard/paper copy will be in a plastic page protector and sent out via First Class Mail.
This is a great project for earning scout badges, 4H/FFA, volunteer work for working with animals, making pet gifts, or trying something new.
