Eryngium Porcelain Coatdress Bunny – Crochet

This porcelain-toned bunny is dressed for a calm city stroll, complete with a sky-blue coatdress set and sculpted floral trim. If you love shopping for amigurumi crochet kits, cotton yarn bundles, safety eyes, and premium stuffing, this project is designed to help you use those favorites in a polished keepsake.

You’ll also create the tiny companion and props that make the scene feel alive: a miniature teddy in matching clothes, a structured brown handbag, and desk-size accessories. If you enjoy shopping for doll clothing patterns, blocking mats, stitch markers, and embroidery needles, you’ll have plenty of satisfying details to build.

Please note: I strive for accuracy in every pattern, but occasional errors can happen. Thank you for understanding and for enjoying my designs.

Project Overview

This pattern makes a standing bunny with long floppy ears, a soft rounded muzzle, and a gentle stitched smile. The outfit includes a light-blue dress, an open-front cream coat with scalloped edging, and clustered eryngium-inspired flowers in blue and lavender tones. A small hat sits tilted with a matching flower accent.

To match the image, the bunny’s coat hangs slightly longer than the dress and flares gently at the hem. The flowers are arranged in clusters at the coat front and along the lower sides, with smaller blossoms on cuffs and shoulders. Shoes are cream with a simple strap detail for a neat, classic silhouette.

Skill Level

• Confident beginner to intermediate amigurumi
• Basic shaping (increases, decreases)
• Simple sewing and placement work
• Small motif work (tiny flowers, scalloped edging)

Finished Size

With DK/light worsted cotton and a 2.5 mm hook, the bunny stands about 10–12 in (25–30 cm), depending on stuffing firmness and yarn choice. The miniature teddy is about 4–5 in (10–13 cm). Adjust hook size to keep stitches tight and stuffing from showing.

Materials

• Main bunny yarn: cream/beige cotton (DK or light worsted)
• Dress yarn: light sky blue
• Coat yarn: soft cream (slightly lighter than bunny body looks best)
• Flower yarns: dusty blue, periwinkle, lavender, pale lilac, tiny touches of light aqua
• Bag yarn: medium brown
• Teddy yarn: warm beige for body, light blue for outfit, cream for coat
• Safety eyes: 8–10 mm for bunny, 5–6 mm for teddy (or embroidered eyes)
• Stuffing: polyester fiberfill
• Optional weight: poly pellets in a fabric pouch for stability
• Embroidery thread: dark brown/gray for nose and mouth, light gray for subtle shaping lines
• Needle: tapestry needle for sewing
• Stitch markers, pins, scissors
• Thin craft wire (optional) for glasses frame, or stiff embroidery thread
• Felt or thin cardstock (optional) for book pages support

Hooks and Tools

• 2.5 mm crochet hook for main pieces
• 2.0 mm hook for tiny accessories (flowers, glasses, book)
• Small pliers (only if using wire for glasses)

Abbreviations

• MR = magic ring
• ch = chain
• sc = single crochet
• inc = increase (2 sc in same stitch)
• dec = invisible decrease
• hdc = half double crochet
• dc = double crochet
• sl st = slip stitch
• blo = back loop only
• flo = front loop only
• st(s) = stitch(es)
• rnd = round

Important Notes for Accuracy

Stitch tightness matters. Use a hook size that creates firm fabric. This keeps the bunny smooth and helps the coat and dress hold their shape. Stuff firmly in the head and upper torso. Stuff legs and arms slightly softer so the pose looks gentle.

Color placement matters. The image has a cream bunny body, a sky-blue dress, and a cream coat with scalloped edging. Flowers are layered, mostly blues and lavenders, with small centers. The hat is light blue and sits slightly angled with one flower on the right side.

Body: Head

Work in continuous rounds unless stated. Use cream/beige yarn.

1. Rnd 1: MR, 6 sc (6)
2. Rnd 2: inc around (12)
3. Rnd 3: (sc, inc) around (18)
4. Rnd 4: (2 sc, inc) around (24)
5. Rnd 5: (3 sc, inc) around (30)
6. Rnd 6: (4 sc, inc) around (36)
7. Rnd 7: (5 sc, inc) around (42)
8. Rnd 8: (6 sc, inc) around (48)
9. Rnd 9: (7 sc, inc) around (54)
10. Rnd 10: (8 sc, inc) around (60)
11. Rnd 11–18: sc around (60)

Place safety eyes between rnds 13 and 14, about 10–11 sts apart. The eyes should sit slightly wider than the nose area, giving a calm expression. Start stuffing and keep adding stuffing as you shape the head.

1. Rnd 19: (8 sc, dec) around (54)
2. Rnd 20: (7 sc, dec) around (48)
3. Rnd 21: (6 sc, dec) around (42)
4. Rnd 22: (5 sc, dec) around (36)
5. Rnd 23: (4 sc, dec) around (30)
6. Rnd 24: (3 sc, dec) around (24)
7. Rnd 25: (2 sc, dec) around (18)
8. Rnd 26: (sc, dec) around (12)
9. Rnd 27: dec around (6)

Fasten off and close. Use remaining tail for a tiny bit of shaping if needed. The head should be round, slightly fuller at the cheeks, and smooth with no gaps.

Facial Embroidery

The image shows a small triangular nose and a simple “Y” style mouth. With dark brown or charcoal embroidery thread, stitch a tiny triangle nose centered between the eyes. Then stitch one vertical line down and two short curves outward for the mouth.

Keep the mouth gentle and minimal. If you want a softer look, use one strand of embroidery floss. Add two tiny stitch indents at the outer corners of the mouth for a subtle smile curve.

Body: Ears (Make 2)

The ears are long, floppy, and sewn down low so they frame the face. Use cream/beige yarn.

1. Rnd 1: MR, 6 sc (6)
2. Rnd 2: inc around (12)
3. Rnd 3: (sc, inc) around (18)
4. Rnd 4–6: sc around (18)
5. Rnd 7: (4 sc, inc) around (21)
6. Rnd 8–10: sc around (21)
7. Rnd 11: (5 sc, inc) around (24)
8. Rnd 12–22: sc around (24)
9. Rnd 23: (6 sc, dec) around (21)
10. Rnd 24–25: sc around (21)
11. Rnd 26: (5 sc, dec) around (18)
12. Rnd 27–28: sc around (18)

Lightly stuff only the top 2 in (5 cm) so the ear base holds shape while the lower portion stays floppy. Flatten the opening and sc across 9 sts to close. Leave a long tail for sewing.

Body: Arms (Make 2)

Arms are simple, slightly tapered, and will be dressed with cuff flowers. Use cream/beige yarn.

1. Rnd 1: MR, 6 sc (6)
2. Rnd 2: inc around (12)
3. Rnd 3–5: sc around (12)
4. Rnd 6: (2 sc, dec) around (9)
5. Rnd 7–16: sc around (9)
6. Rnd 17: (2 sc, inc) around (12)
7. Rnd 18–20: sc around (12)

Stuff lightly, keeping the hand end rounded but not hard. Flatten and sc across 6 sts to close. Leave a long tail. The arms should hang naturally at the sides and stop around the upper dress area.

Body: Legs and Feet (Make 2)

The feet in the image are rounded with a slightly flatter base for standing. Use cream/beige yarn. If you want extra stability, place a small pellet pouch in each foot before closing.

1. Rnd 1: MR, 6 sc (6)
2. Rnd 2: inc around (12)
3. Rnd 3: (sc, inc) around (18)
4. Rnd 4: (2 sc, inc) around (24)
5. Rnd 5: (3 sc, inc) around (30)
6. Rnd 6: sc around (30)
7. Rnd 7: blo sc around (30)
8. Rnd 8: sc around (30)
9. Rnd 9: (8 sc, dec) around (27)
10. Rnd 10: sc around (27)
11. Rnd 11: (7 sc, dec) around (24)
12. Rnd 12: sc around (24)
13. Rnd 13: (6 sc, dec) around (21)
14. Rnd 14: sc around (21)

Begin stuffing the foot firmly. Continue up the leg.

1. Rnd 15: (5 sc, dec) around (18)
2. Rnd 16–24: sc around (18)

Do not fasten off the first leg. Make the second leg the same, but do fasten off and keep the tail short. Legs should be the same height and equally stuffed so the bunny stands evenly.

Body: Join Legs and Make Torso

With the first leg still on the hook, align legs so toes point forward. Add stitches to match the image’s upright stance. If your legs twist, adjust by adding a few sc on the first leg before joining.

1. Rnd 1 (join): ch 3, sc into a stitch on second leg, sc around second leg (18), sc into each of 3 ch, sc around first leg (18), sc into other side of 3 ch (3) (42)
2. Rnd 2: sc around (42)
3. Rnd 3: (5 sc, inc) around (48)
4. Rnd 4–7: sc around (48)
5. Rnd 8: (6 sc, dec) around (42)
6. Rnd 9–10: sc around (42)
7. Rnd 11: (5 sc, dec) around (36)
8. Rnd 12–13: sc around (36)
9. Rnd 14: (4 sc, dec) around (30)
10. Rnd 15–16: sc around (30)

Stuff torso firmly, especially the lower belly and chest. The torso should be stable and not squishy, since the coat and dress hang best over a firm shape. Continue shaping the neck so the head sits neatly.

1. Rnd 17: (3 sc, dec) around (24)
2. Rnd 18: sc around (24)
3. Rnd 19: (2 sc, dec) around (18)
4. Rnd 20: sc around (18)

Fasten off with a long tail for sewing the head. The neck opening should be centered and round.

Shoes (Make 2)

The shoes are cream with a simple strap detail. Work directly onto the feet or as separate slip-on pieces. For a crisp look like the image, make separate shoes and stitch them on.

Shoe Base

1. Rnd 1: MR, 6 sc (6)
2. Rnd 2: inc around (12)
3. Rnd 3: (sc, inc) around (18)
4. Rnd 4: (2 sc, inc) around (24)
5. Rnd 5: sc around (24)
6. Rnd 6: blo sc around (24)
7. Rnd 7: sc around (24)
8. Rnd 8: (6 sc, dec) around (21)
9. Rnd 9: sc around (21)
10. Rnd 10: (5 sc, dec) around (18)
11. Rnd 11: sc around (18)

Test fit over the foot. It should be snug and sit just above the foot curve. Add one extra rnd of 18 if needed for taller feet. Fasten off leaving a tail for stitching to the foot.

Shoe Strap (Make 2)

1. Ch 10, starting in 2nd ch from hook: sc 9.

Sew the strap across the top of the shoe, slightly forward, to match the image. Add a tiny stitched “button” look by making 3–4 small wraps of yarn on one side.

Dress (Light Blue)

The dress in the image is a simple fitted bodice with a skirt that flares slightly. It sits under the open-front coat and peeks through at the hem and neckline. Work top-down and try it on the bunny torso as you go.

Dress Bodice

1. Rnd 1: MR, 6 sc (6)
2. Rnd 2: inc around (12)
3. Rnd 3: (sc, inc) around (18)
4. Rnd 4: (2 sc, inc) around (24)
5. Rnd 5: (3 sc, inc) around (30)

This creates the neckline circle. If you prefer a more open neck like the image, stop at 30 sts. Work a few rounds straight to form the upper chest.

1. Rnd 6–8: sc around (30)

Now create arm openings by splitting for front and back. Mark 10 sts for front, 5 for arm, 10 for back, 5 for arm. Adjust by 1–2 sts if your torso differs.

1. Rnd 9: sc 10, ch 5, skip 5, sc 10, ch 5, skip 5 (30 + 10 ch spaces)
2. Rnd 10: sc around, placing 5 sc into each ch space (40)
3. Rnd 11–13: sc around (40)

Dress Skirt

The skirt flares gently and falls slightly shorter than the coat. Build flare in small steps so it drapes cleanly.

1. Rnd 14: (4 sc, inc) around (48)
2. Rnd 15: sc around (48)
3. Rnd 16: (5 sc, inc) around (56)
4. Rnd 17–20: sc around (56)

For the hem, add a soft edge without ruffles. Work one decorative round that stays flat.

1. Rnd 21: (sc, hdc, dc) in next st, skip 2, sl st in next; repeat around.

Fasten off and weave in ends. The neckline should sit just under the head, and the skirt should peek below the coat hem slightly, like the image.

Coat (Cream) With Open Front and Scalloped Edge

The coat is the signature piece. It is open at the front, with a collar-like fold and a scalloped trim that runs down both fronts and around the hem. The coat length reaches below the dress, and the sides are decorated with flower clusters.

Coat Back Panel

Work in rows to create an open-front garment. Use cream coat yarn. Measure against your bunny torso as you go for perfect fit.

1. Row 1: ch 31, sc in 2nd ch from hook and across (30)
2. Row 2–6: ch 1, turn, sc across (30)

Shape the armholes by reducing a little at each side. This creates a gentle shoulder line like the image’s coat.

1. Row 7: ch 1, turn, dec, sc 26, dec (28)
2. Row 8: ch 1, turn, sc across (28)
3. Row 9: ch 1, turn, dec, sc 24, dec (26)
4. Row 10–12: ch 1, turn, sc across (26)

📌Thank you for reading the article

Fasten off. This back panel should cover most of the bunny back and sit smoothly without bunching.

Coat Front Panels (Make 2 Mirrored)

Each front panel is narrower and includes a slight neckline shape. Work in rows. Make one, then mirror the shaping for the second.

1. Row 1: ch 16, sc in 2nd ch and across (15)
2. Row 2–5: ch 1, turn, sc across (15)
3. Row 6: ch 1, turn, sc 13, dec (14)
4. Row 7: ch 1, turn, sc across (14)
5. Row 8: ch 1, turn, sc 12, dec (13)
6. Row 9–12: ch 1, turn, sc across (13)

Fasten off. Repeat for the second panel, but place decreases at the opposite end to mirror the shape.

Join Coat at Shoulders and Sides

Lay back panel flat. Place front panels on each side with top edges aligned. Sew shoulder seams first. Then sew side seams, leaving a comfortable armhole opening. Test fit on the bunny torso over the dress and adjust seam depth if needed.

• Shoulder seam: sew about 5–6 sts on each side
• Side seam: sew from hem upward about 6–7 rows, stop for armhole, then sew 2–3 rows above armhole if needed

Coat Sleeves (Make 2)

Work sleeves directly into the armholes for a clean fit. Join yarn at underarm. Work in rounds.

1. Rnd 1: sc evenly around armhole (about 18–22 sts)
2. Rnd 2–6: sc around
3. Rnd 7: (4 sc, dec) around (reduce slightly)
4. Rnd 8–10: sc around

Stop sleeve length at the wrist so the cuffs can show flowers like the image. Fasten off. Repeat for second sleeve.

Scalloped Edge for Fronts and Hem

Join yarn at the bottom hem edge on one front. Work along the front opening, around the hem, and up the other front opening. Keep the trim consistent so the coat looks refined.

1. Edge Round 1: sc evenly around all edges, placing 3 sc at corners (front bottom corners) to avoid curling.
2. Edge Round 2 (scallop): *sl st in next st, skip 1, (sc, hdc, dc, hdc, sc) in next st, skip 1* repeat.

If your edge count causes rippling, switch to smaller scallops by using (sc, hdc, hdc, sc) as needed. The image shows modest scallops, not heavy ruffles.

Eryngium-Style Flowers (Multiple Sizes)

The coat is decorated with layered flowers in blue and lavender tones. Use a 2.0 mm hook for crisp petals. Make a mix of large and small blossoms, then cluster them. Centers are small and slightly raised for a “porcelain floral” look.

Small Flower (Make 10–14)

1. Rnd 1: MR, 6 sc, sl st to join (6)
2. Rnd 2: *ch 2, (dc, hdc) in same st, ch 2, sl st in next st* repeat 6 times.

Fasten off leaving a tail for sewing. If you want more texture, add a second layer by working into the MR ring spaces with shorter petals.

Medium Flower (Make 8–10)

1. Rnd 1: MR, 8 sc, sl st to join (8)
2. Rnd 2: *ch 2, (dc, dc) in same st, ch 2, sl st in next st* repeat 8 times.

For a fuller look like the coat front, stitch a small flower on top of a medium flower, matching tones. This creates the layered effect seen in the image.

Large Flower (Make 4–6)

1. Rnd 1: MR, 10 sc, sl st to join (10)
2. Rnd 2: *ch 3, (dc, hdc, dc) in same st, ch 3, sl st in next st* repeat 10 times.

Use large flowers for the coat hem clusters and the two prominent front clusters. Pair with small blossoms nearby to mimic the natural arrangement in the image.

Flower Centers

1. MR, 5 sc, sl st to join. Fasten off.

Sew one center onto each medium and large flower. Use slightly contrasting light aqua or pale lilac to match the soft pastel centers shown.

Flower Placement on Coat (Exact Look Guide)

Front clusters: The image shows two main clusters on the lower front panels. Place one cluster on each side, starting about 1 in (2.5 cm) above the scalloped hem and centered on each front panel.

• Each front cluster: 1 large flower, 1 medium flower, 2–3 small flowers
• Use mostly dusty blue and periwinkle, with lavender accents
• Add pale centers to medium and large flowers

Hem side clusters: Add additional flowers along the lower side edges. These clusters sit slightly behind the front panels, creating the wraparound floral look seen in the image when viewed from the front.

• Each side: 1 medium flower + 2 small flowers
• Place them just above the scalloped edge

Cuffs and shoulders: The coat cuffs and upper shoulder area show small floral accents. Add one small flower at each cuff outer side. Add one small flower near each shoulder seam, close to the collar opening.

Hat (Light Blue) With Side Flower

The hat is a short, flat-topped cap. It sits tilted slightly to one side. Work in rounds with light blue yarn.

1. Rnd 1: MR, 6 sc (6)
2. Rnd 2: inc around (12)
3. Rnd 3: (sc, inc) around (18)
4. Rnd 4: (2 sc, inc) around (24)
5. Rnd 5: (3 sc, inc) around (30)
6. Rnd 6: (4 sc, inc) around (36)
7. Rnd 7–10: sc around (36)
8. Rnd 11: blo sc around (36)
9. Rnd 12–13: sc around (36)

Fasten off and weave in ends. Make one medium flower in dusty blue and sew it to the hat’s right side. For the layered look, stitch a small flower on top of the medium flower.

Mini Teddy Companion

The small teddy mirrors the bunny’s outfit: blue clothing, cream coat, and blue hat. Keep stitches tight and use a smaller hook if needed. The teddy body is warm beige with darker beige for paws if desired.

Teddy Head

1. Rnd 1: MR, 6 sc (6)
2. Rnd 2: inc around (12)
3. Rnd 3: (sc, inc) around (18)
4. Rnd 4: (2 sc, inc) around (24)
5. Rnd 5–8: sc around (24)
6. Rnd 9: (2 sc, dec) around (18)
7. Rnd 10: sc around (18)

Insert 5–6 mm eyes between rnds 6 and 7, about 6 sts apart. Stuff firmly.

1. Rnd 11: (sc, dec) around (12)
2. Rnd 12: dec around (6)

Fasten off and close. Embroider a tiny nose and short mouth line.

Teddy Ears (Make 2)

1. MR, 6 sc. Fasten off with tail.

Sew ears high on the head, slightly to the sides.

Teddy Body

1. Rnd 1: MR, 6 sc (6)
2. Rnd 2: inc around (12)
3. Rnd 3: (sc, inc) around (18)
4. Rnd 4–6: sc around (18)
5. Rnd 7: (sc, dec) around (12)
6. Rnd 8–9: sc around (12)

Stuff and fasten off with a tail for attaching head.

Teddy Arms and Legs

Make 2 tiny arms and 2 tiny legs with simple tubes: MR 6 sc, work 5–6 rounds, lightly stuff, flatten, and sew.

Teddy Outfit and Coat

For the blue outfit, stitch a simple body tube in light blue that fits over the teddy torso. Add a cream open-front mini coat using two small panels and one back panel, then a tiny scallop edge. Add a small blue hat using the same cap method as the bunny, scaled down.

Brown Handbag

The bag is structured, rounded, and sits at the bunny’s left side in the image. Use medium brown yarn and a tight hook so it holds shape. Add a simple flap and a stitched button circle.

Bag Body

1. Rnd 1: MR, 6 sc (6)
2. Rnd 2: inc around (12)
3. Rnd 3: (sc, inc) around (18)
4. Rnd 4: (2 sc, inc) around (24)
5. Rnd 5: (3 sc, inc) around (30)
6. Rnd 6: (4 sc, inc) around (36)
7. Rnd 7–11: sc around (36)
8. Rnd 12: blo sc around (36)
9. Rnd 13–16: sc around (36)

Stuff lightly so the bag stays plump but not hard. Flatten the top opening and sc across to close about two-thirds of the width, leaving a small opening under the flap line.

Bag Flap

1. Join yarn at the top center. Ch 1, sc 12 across.
2. Row 2: ch 1, turn, dec, sc 8, dec (10)
3. Row 3: ch 1, turn, dec, sc 6, dec (8)
4. Row 4: ch 1, turn, sc 8

Fasten off. Stitch the flap edge down at the sides so it curves neatly. Make a tiny button circle: MR 6 sc, sl st to join. Sew button at flap center.

📌Thank you for reading the article

Bag Handle

1. Ch 26, sc in 2nd ch and across (25). Fasten off.

Sew ends to bag sides. The handle should arc like the image, not stand straight up.

Mini Glasses

The glasses are placed near the book in the image. You can crochet them with very thin thread, or shape them with craft wire. The cleanest look comes from wire wrapped with matching thread.

• Cut a short wire piece and form two small circles for lenses.
• Twist a tiny bridge in the center.
• Form short arms on each side.
• Wrap lightly with brown embroidery thread and secure ends.

If you prefer crochet: make two tiny rings by chaining 10, slip stitching into the first chain, then sew rings together with a short bridge stitch.

Mini Open Book

The open book sits flat with visible “pages.” Use cream or white yarn and a small hook, or use felt/cardstock for the pages and crochet only the cover. Keep it simple and clean like the image.

Crochet Cover

1. Ch 16, sc in 2nd ch and across (15)
2. Rows 2–6: ch 1, turn, sc across (15)

Fasten off. Fold the rectangle in half like an open book. Add a thin piece of cardstock inside to hold the open angle. Tack the center “spine” with a few stitches so it stays open.

For pages, cut a small stack of paper or felt and glue or stitch inside, fanning slightly. If using crochet pages, stitch several tiny rectangles and layer them, but keep bulk minimal.

Assembly Order

Assembling in the right order ensures the clothing sits exactly like the image. Pin frequently before sewing so the coat front hangs evenly and the hat tilt looks natural.

1. Sew head to torso, centered, with firm stitches around the neck opening.
2. Sew ears: place low and slightly forward so they frame the cheeks.
3. Sew arms to torso at the upper sides, slightly angled forward.
4. Stitch shoes onto feet, then attach straps across the top.
5. Dress the bunny with the blue dress and tack at shoulders if needed.
6. Put on the cream coat and tack at shoulders and upper back lightly.
7. Add scalloped trim if not already done, then sew flower clusters.
8. Place hat tilted to the right and tack with hidden stitches.
9. Finish mini teddy and place beside bunny.
10. Make and place handbag, glasses, and open book as display props.

Final Assembly and Facial Detailing

Check the face from multiple angles. The eyes should be level, and the nose should sit centered and slightly lower than the eye line. Add tiny sculpting stitches from the cheeks toward the nose to create a soft muzzle if desired. Keep shaping subtle to match the calm expression.

Care Notes

For best results, spot clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid soaking the flowers, as layered petals can stretch. Let pieces air dry fully on a towel. If the coat edge curls, gently reshape with fingers and allow it to dry flat.

Quick Checklist Before You Finish

• Head is firmly stuffed and centered on torso
• Ears are evenly placed and drape symmetrically
• Coat hangs longer than the dress and stays open at the front
• Scalloped edging lies flat without heavy ruffling
• Flower clusters match the blue-lavender palette and placement
• Hat is slightly tilted with a side flower accent
• Shoes are secured and straps sit neatly across the top
• Mini teddy outfit colors coordinate with the main bunny

Detailed Cleaning and Preservation Guidelines

Store away from direct sunlight to prevent color fading, especially on the blue dress and flowers. If displaying long-term, place the bunny on a stable shelf and avoid hanging by the ears or coat. For dust, use a soft makeup brush or low-suction vacuum through a mesh cloth.
