Leptospermum Teacake Bunny – Crochet

This charming amigurumi set brings together a collectible bunny doll, a tiny bear companion, a flower-filled gift pouch, a teacup with saucer, and a cookie plate in soft blush and cream. It has the sweet look of a handmade nursery doll and the polished finish shoppers look for in a luxury crochet doll set or heirloom amigurumi gift.

The balanced pastel palette, layered clothing, and miniature accessories make this design ideal for anyone browsing for a bunny plush, cottagecore nursery decor, handmade baby shower gift, or artisan crochet animal doll. Every piece is sized to match the display in the image so the finished set feels coordinated and ready for display.

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

General Notes

Work in continuous rounds unless a row is clearly stated. Mark the first stitch of each round. Keep stitches firm so stuffing does not show through. The sample in the image has smooth, even tension and quite compact fabric, so avoid a loose hook size.

The face is minimal and soft. The eyes are widely spaced, the nose is a tiny pink inverted triangle, and the mouth is a short stitched Y-shape. The dress widens gently from the waist, while the cardigan stays short and rounded at the front.

The hood is not a separate hat sitting high above the head. It hugs the head closely and includes long floppy ears that fall down the sides. The floral cluster sits on the bunny’s upper right side when viewed from the front.

Color Placement Overview

• Main bunny head and hood: cream, with blush pink inside the long ears
• Face: soft peach-beige/cream tone
• Dress: blush pink with cream scalloped trim at the hem
• Cardigan: cream, tied at the neck
• Shoes: cream with tiny side bows
• Flower details: dusty rose, berry pink, white, yellow centers, green stems
• Tiny bear: warm tan or light brown body, with matching blush dress and cream hood/cardigan set

9. Rnd 9: (7 sc, inc) x 6. (54)
10. Rnd 10-19: Sc around. (54)

Insert the 6 mm eyes between rnds 13 and 14 with about 10 visible stitches between them. The image shows a calm, open expression, so do not place the eyes too low or too close together.

11. Rnd 20: (7 sc, dec) x 6. (48)
12. Rnd 21: (6 sc, dec) x 6. (42)
13. Rnd 22: (5 sc, dec) x 6. (36)
14. Rnd 23: (4 sc, dec) x 6. (30)

Stuff firmly and shape the cheeks so the face looks round, not oval. Keep the front full and smooth.

15. Rnd 24: (3 sc, dec) x 6. (24)
16. Rnd 25: (2 sc, dec) x 6. (18)
17. Rnd 26: (Sc, dec) x 6. (12)
18. Rnd 27: Dec x 6. (6)

Fasten off and close.

Facial Detailing

• Embroider a tiny upside-down triangle nose in dusty pink or soft rose centered between the eyes, about one round below eye level.
• From the nose point, stitch one short vertical line downward, then divide into a tiny Y mouth.
• Add a very light blush under the eyes and slightly outward toward the cheeks.

The face in the image is delicate. Keep all embroidery short and neat. Large features will change the entire mood.

Main Bunny Body and Skirt Base

Leg Openings Foundation

The bunny stands in a dress with separate feet underneath. The body begins from the lower torso and widens into the skirt. You may either build from legs upward or make a simple body cone and attach separate legs. For the closest result, use separate legs joined into the body.

Legs for Main Bunny

Make 2. Start in cream for the shoes.

1. Rnd 1: 6 sc in MR. (6)
2. Rnd 2: Inc around. (12)
3. Rnd 3: (Sc, inc) x 6. (18)
4. Rnd 4: (2 sc, inc) x 6. (24)
5. Rnd 5: In BLO, sc around. (24)
6. Rnd 6-7: Sc around. (24)

This creates the shoe sole edge. Flatten slightly at the front so the shoes look rounded but not ball-shaped.

7. Rnd 8: 6 sc, dec x 6, 6 sc. (18)
8. Rnd 9: 5 sc, dec x 4, 5 sc. (14)
9. Rnd 10-11: Sc around. (14)

Stuff the foot lightly, especially the toe. Continue the ankle and leg in blush pink.

10. Rnd 12-18: Sc around. (14)

Make the second leg the same. Do not fasten off on the second leg.

Join Legs and Build Torso

1. Ch 4 from second leg and join to first leg.
2. Rnd 1 of body: 14 sc around first leg, 4 sc across chain, 14 sc around second leg, 4 sc on other side of chain. (36)
3. Rnd 2-3: Sc around. (36)
4. Rnd 4: (4 sc, dec) x 6. (30)
5. Rnd 5-6: Sc around. (30)
6. Rnd 7: (3 sc, dec) x 6. (24)
7. Rnd 8-10: Sc around. (24)

12. Rnd 15: (4 sc, inc) x 8. (48)
13. Rnd 16-21: Sc around. (48)

📌Thank you for reading the article

Stuff the torso firmly as you go. The upper body in the image is compact and rounded under the cardigan, while the dress widens gently. Do not overstuff the skirt section.

Upper Chest and Neck

1. Rnd 22: (6 sc, dec) x 6. (42)
2. Rnd 23: Sc around. (42)
3. Rnd 24: (5 sc, dec) x 6. (36)
4. Rnd 25: (4 sc, dec) x 6. (30)
5. Rnd 26: (3 sc, dec) x 6. (24)
6. Rnd 27: Sc around. (24)

Fasten off leaving a long tail for sewing the head.

Dress Overlay

The visible outer dress is blush pink, sleeveless, with a softly flared skirt and a cream scalloped hem peeking out. The texture is simple horizontal rounds, which helps match the clean look in the image.

Dress Top

1. Using blush pink, chain enough to wrap neatly around the upper body just under the arm line. Join carefully without twisting. For the size above, start with 30 chains.
2. Row 1: Sc around. (30)
3. Rows 2-4: Sc around. (30)
4. Row 5: (4 sc, inc) x 6. (36)
5. Row 6: Sc around. (36)
6. Row 7: (5 sc, inc) x 6. (42)
7. Row 8: Sc around. (42)
8. Row 9: (6 sc, inc) x 6. (48)
9. Rows 10-15: Sc around. (48)

Slip the dress onto the body and sew it in place neatly around the neckline and waist if needed. The upper chest should remain smooth and fitted.

Scalloped Hem Underskirt

Join cream to the lower inside edge of the dress.

1. Round 1: In FLO or lower edge, (skip 1 st, 5 dc in next st, skip 1 st, sl st in next st) around.

Keep the scallops small so they appear as a delicate trim rather than a dramatic ruffle. In the image, the cream edge is visible but subtle.

Main Bunny Arms

Make 2 in cream.

1. Rnd 1: 6 sc in MR. (6)
2. Rnd 2: (Sc, inc) x 3. (9)
3. Rnd 3-5: Sc around. (9)
4. Rnd 6: Dec, 7 sc. (8)
5. Rnd 7-14: Sc around. (8)

Stuff only the lower half. Flatten the top opening and sew closed. The arms should angle gently downward and inward, resting in front of the dress rather than sticking straight out.

Main Bunny Hood with Long Ears

Hood Cap

The hood fits like a close bonnet that covers the crown and frames the face. It is not deep at the forehead. It ends slightly below the jawline and continues into the floppy ears.

1. Rnd 1: In cream, 6 sc in MR. (6)
2. Rnd 2: Inc around. (12)
3. Rnd 3: (Sc, inc) x 6. (18)
4. Rnd 4: (2 sc, inc) x 6. (24)
5. Rnd 5: (3 sc, inc) x 6. (30)
6. Rnd 6: (4 sc, inc) x 6. (36)
7. Rnd 7: (5 sc, inc) x 6. (42)
8. Rnd 8: (6 sc, inc) x 6. (48)
9. Rnd 9-13: Sc around. (48)

Test fit on the head. The hood should cover the top and sides of the head while leaving the full face visible. If needed, add one more plain round.

Face Opening Border

Flatten the hood slightly and identify the face opening. Work partial rows across the front opening to create a neat framed edge.

1. Row 1: 30 sc across front opening.
2. Rows 2-3: Ch 1, turn, sc across.

Fasten off and sew the hood to the head only at the back and near the cheek sides, leaving the front edge free and soft.

3. Rnd 3: (Sc, inc) x 6. (18)
4. Rnd 4-10: Sc around. (18)

Flatten the inner panel and stitch it to the center of each outer ear. Do not pad the ears. Fold the top slightly and sew them to the hood so they hang downward. The ears in the image are soft and draped, not upright.

Main Bunny Cardigan

The cardigan is short, cream, and open in front with rounded lower edges. It ties at the neck with a simple cord. The sleeves are integrated visually, but the piece can be made as a small yoke jacket sewn around the body.

Back Panel

1. With cream, ch 21.
2. Row 1: Sc in second ch from hook and across. (20)
3. Rows 2-8: Ch 1, turn, sc across. (20)

Neck Tie

1. Chain 35 to 40 in cream.
2. Fasten off and thread through neckline edge or sew directly to each front panel.

Tie in a small bow just below the chin. The bow in the image is modest and flat.

Main Bunny Shoes and Side Bows

The shoes are already formed as the lower part of the legs, but they need finishing detail.

• Embroider a horizontal edge line around the top opening if needed.
• Make 2 tiny bows by chaining 8, sl st to form a ring, wrapping yarn around the center.
• Sew one bow to the outer side of each shoe near the ankle opening.

📌Thank you for reading the article

These bows should be very small. They act as a finishing touch and should not dominate the shoes.

Flower Cluster for Hood

The hood decoration includes layered blossoms in white, pale pink, and deep berry tones. The cluster sits high on the bunny’s right side and spreads outward over the hood edge.

Small Five-Petal Flower

1. Using white or pink, make MR.
2. Into ring work: (ch 2, 2 dc, ch 2, sl st) x 5.
3. Pull ring tight and fasten off.

Layered Rosette

1. Ch 18 in berry pink or dusty rose.
2. Row 1: 2 dc in third ch from hook and in each remaining chain.
3. Roll tightly from one end and stitch the base closed.

Tiny Flower Centers

Assembly of Hood Flowers

• Make at least 6 to 8 flowers in mixed sizes.
• Arrange one white blossom near the center front of the cluster.
• Place deeper berry flowers above and below it.
• Fill gaps with tiny pink rosettes.

Sew the entire group securely to the hood and a little onto the ear base if needed. The arrangement should look full but still neat.

Tiny Bear Companion

This miniature companion wears a matching hooded outfit with a pink dress and cream cardigan feel. The body is bear-shaped, not bunny-shaped. The face has rounded ears, a short muzzle, tiny black nose, and close black eyes.

Bear Head

Bear Dress and Hood

Use the same structure as the main bunny but scaled down. Make a simple blush skirt tube with a cream scalloped trim. Add a tiny cream hood with a small flower on the side. The cardigan effect can be made by sewing narrow cream front panels over the dress and tying them at the neck.

Add three small berry-pink decorative dots or French knot buttons down one front side of the bear outfit to match the image.

Flower Pouch or Vase Piece

The left accessory looks like a soft pink pouch or wrapped vase holding a bouquet. It has a narrow upper neck, rounded base, floral decoration, and a berry bow or stem detail across the front.

Stuff the lower half firmly or insert a pellet pouch to make it stand. Leave the upper neck less stuffed.

Front Decoration

• Sew two or three small flowers to the front lower half.
• Add a twisted cord or stitched stem in berry pink across the front, ending near the flowers.
• Make a tiny bow or wrapped knot as in the image.

Bouquet

2. Rnd 2: Inc around. (12)
3. Rnd 3: (Sc, inc) x 6. (18)
4. Rnd 4: (2 sc, inc) x 6. (24)

Round Cookies

• Make 2 in biscuit beige: 6 sc in MR, then inc around to 12. Fasten off flat.
• Embroider or stitch tiny chocolate chips in medium brown.

Dark Cookies

• Make 2 in cocoa brown: 6 sc in MR, inc around to 12. Flatten lightly.

Arrange the cookies overlapping on the plate exactly as in the image, with lighter cookies toward the front and darker ones toward the back.

Optional Stiffening and Display Support

Because the image shows accessories standing cleanly, you may lightly stiffen the teacup, saucer, cookie plate, and flower pouch opening with diluted fabric glue or starch. Let pieces dry fully before styling.

Do not over-stiffen the bunny, bear, ears, or cardigan. Those parts need to stay soft and plush.

Full Set Assembly Order

1. Sew the main bunny head to the body.
2. Attach arms at shoulder level angled slightly forward.
3. Dress the body with the pink dress overlay if made separately.
4. Sew the cardigan in place and tie the neck bow.
5. Attach the hood to the head.
6. Sew the long ears to the hood so they drape downward.
7. Add shoe bows.
8. Sew the floral cluster to the hood.
9. Assemble the tiny bear and dress it in the matching outfit.
10. Make the flower pouch, bouquet, teacup, saucer, plate, and cookies.

Styling to Match the Image

• Place the main bunny in the center.
• Set the flower pouch on the bunny’s left side.
• Place the teacup and saucer in front of the pouch.
• Set the cookie plate near the bunny’s feet.
• Place the tiny bear on the bunny’s right side.

The display works because the colors repeat from object to object. Keep the berry flowers, cream trim, and blush pink balanced across the whole set.

Final Assembly and Facial Detailing

After every piece is sewn, step back and check the silhouette from the front. The bunny’s head should look round and centered, the cardigan should sit evenly, and the hood opening should frame the face without covering the cheeks.

Adjust the ears so each one drops naturally. One may sit slightly closer to the face, which adds charm. Add the last touch of blush only after the hood and flowers are attached, so the expression stays balanced.

For the bear, keep the nose very small and the eyes level. If the face looks too strong, remove a few embroidery strands and redo it more delicately.

Care Notes

• Display indoors away from direct moisture.
• Keep strong sunlight to a minimum to protect pastel shades.
• Handle flower stems and tiny accessories gently.
• Store the cookies, cup, and saucer together in a small box when not displayed.

Quick Checklist Before You Finish

• Are both bunny eyes level and evenly spaced?
• Is the nose centered?
• Do both ears hang softly and symmetrically?
• Does the cardigan tie neatly below the head?
• Does the dress flare evenly all around?
• Are the hood flowers full but not bulky?
• Is the tiny bear scaled correctly beside the bunny?
• Do the teacup, plate, and flower pouch stand cleanly for display?

Detailed Cleaning and Preservation Guidelines

Dust the finished set with a clean, dry makeup brush or a soft cloth. For small marks, dab gently with a barely damp cloth and let the piece air dry flat. Avoid soaking the stuffed dolls unless absolutely necessary.

If a full wash is needed, remove any cardboard or plastic support pieces first. Hand wash in cool water with mild soap, squeeze gently in a towel, reshape, and dry away from heat. Restuff lightly after drying if the shape softens.

Store the set in acid-free tissue inside a dry box. Keep darker yarns away from white flowers during long storage so color transfer does not occur.
