[EYES: cut 2 pieces of white felt to make the eyes (you can make every shape you like in order to give the amigurumi doll the look you prefer.
Cut an hole in the felt pieces and insert the blue safety eyes. Place them between round 11 and round 12; in order to give the “crazy look” I suggest
to use the white felt to create the eyelid (see the pictures to have an idea of the shape). You can either sew or hot glue the white felt pieces]

nose to the teeth of the bunny with some pink cotton thread.]
[TEETH: cut a rectangular piece of with felt and position it at the bottom of the muzzle (see the picture); I suggest to sew it just in the middle part
to the head with some white sewing thread; that will make the felt piece looks like two little teeth.]
