The Friendly Harry- a free crochet pattern

The Friendly Harry is a free crochet bunny pattern. His little costume is adorable in the brown but would be so cute in a whole lot of other colors-pink, white, gray. The Forest Friends are reminiscent of the Lost Boys from Peter Pan. I
love their little outfits and sweet expressions. Simple but cute. Using
worsted weight yarn, each doll is about 10 inches tall. I think they
would be perfect for a nursery or as gifts. The legs, body, and head
are all made in one piece. 

If you would like the ad-free, printable PDF version you can purchase it on Etsy or Ravelry.
You can get the whole Forest Friends set

Abbreviations and Tips&Tricks
(Please note that gauge is not overly important here. Unless you have wide gaps in your fabric of single crochet, then go down a hook size until you achieve tight stitches.)
*Written in US Crochet Terms*
SC– single crochet
SC INC– single crochet increase (2 SC in each stitch)
INV DEC– Invisible decrease (put hook through the FRONT LOOP ONLY of two consecutive stitches [two loops on hook] Yarn over pull through both loops. [two loops on hook] Yarn over pull through two loops)
Magic Circle– Make a loop, leaving a long tail to work with. Insert hook in center of loop, yarn over and draw up a loop. Yarn over, pull through to make the first chain (this does not count as a stitch!). Continue to crochet over the loop and tail with the number of stitches called for. (If you need 6 SC, then crochet 6 SC inside the ring.) Pull the tail to close the circle.
Always move your stitch marker to the last stitch in the round. This pattern is worked in continuous rounds. Stuff as you go.
Leg One
Round 1: In a magic circle, SC 6
Round 2: SC INC in each stitch around (12)
Round 3: SC in first, SC INC in next. Repeat around. (18)
Round 4: SC in first 2, SC INC in next. Repeat around. (24)
Round 5: SC in first 3, SC INC in next. Repeat around. (30)
Rounds 6-8: SC in each around. (30)
Round 9: INV DEC in the next 12. SC in the next 6. (18)

Round 
21 (This round attaches the legs and then you will begin the body): Sc
in next 12. Chain 3 and then SC in the next stitch of Leg One. Take care
to crochet over the tail left over by fastening off. SC in each stitch
around Leg One. When you come to the three chains, SC in each chain (a
total of three.) Then SC in each stitch around Leg Two. SC in each chain
back (3 stitches)  to the other leg. In the last SC on the last chain
place your stitch marker.
Watch this video on how to attach the legs.
Round 22: SC around. (42)
Rounds 23-36: SC around (42)
Round 37: 4 SC, INV DEC, repeat around. (35)
Round 38: 3 SC, INV DEC, repeat around. (28)
Round 39: 2 SC, INV DEC, repeat around.(21)
Change to skin color.
Round 40: 1 SC, INV DEC, repeat around. (14)
INV DEC until you have 12 stitches on the round
Round 41: SC in each stitch around. (12)
From
here we will be increasing the head. From this point I am resetting the
number on the rounds. Round 42 of the body is now Round 1 of the head.
It will be easy to see.

Place the safety eyes in
between rows 13 and 14, nine stitches apart. Sew on eyelashes here, if

as you can.
