This rabbit was a conglomeration of 7 different patterns, so I wrote out the combined pattern below.
I was using up odds and ends so I ended up using #3 light blue yarn and #4 dark brown yarn. The sweater was a teeny bit tight, so I think using #4 light blue yarn would work better. Also, if you are trying to replicate Peter Rabbit, light brown thread would be a bit better.
