I prefer my way for the ears - it is quicker and they can be bent in any shape.
Here are the pithy instructions for the rabbit finger puppets. Knit in the round with size 0 dpns and fingering weight yarn. Cast on 24 sts, join. Start with two rows of purl then knit until desired length. K2TOG across row. Repeat. Draw yarn through stitches. For ears cast on 10 or 12 stitches. Bind off knitwise. For carrots - do 4 stitch I-cord until desired length and top with some green yarn that has been frayed. Use the fraying technique also for the whiskers.
