Cut a rectangle of paper 20 inches long and 13 inches wide.
Fold the paper in half lenghwise. Draw a line along the fold, stopping 4 inches from each end. Draw a line from each end of this line toward the closest two corners on that side. Stop 2 inches from each corner. This is the basic shape of a rabbit's back and legs with the legs splayed out. There is no head on the pelt.
Draw a line for the tail by extending the line on the fold by 2 inches on one end.
Make the pattern for the pelt by drawing a rounded shape around the lines on the paper. Draw about 5 inches away from the line of the back and 1 1/2 inches away from the lines of the legs and tail.
Cut out the pattern.
Trace the pattern on the cloth side of the faux fur.
