This sweet amigurumi bunny set brings together a timeless rabbit doll, a tiny matching companion, and charming accessories that feel perfect for handmade gift ideas, nursery decor, collectible plush display, and artisan market listings. The warm skirt, textured cardigan, and beret give the whole set a polished boutique look.
The design is especially lovely for makers who enjoy heirloom-style soft toys with clothing details that resemble premium handmade bunny doll patterns. The finished pieces look beautiful as a baby shower gift, shelf decor piece, seasonal plush accent, or handcrafted keepsake for anyone shopping for elegant crochet animals.
Please note: I strive for accuracy in every pattern, but occasional errors can happen. Thank you for understanding and for enjoying my designs.
Overview
This pattern creates a seated long-legged bunny wearing an olive beret, a cream cropped cardigan, a rust flared skirt, a brown belt, and Mary Jane shoes. The set also includes a mini bunny dressed in the same style, plus a small handbag and a tiny clasp purse.
The proportions are important to the final look. The head is large and softly rounded, the torso is compact, the legs are long and straight, and the ears fall low at both sides of the face. Clothing is neat and fitted, with the skirt sitting high at the waist.
The overall style depends on even stitches, firm stuffing, and careful placement. Use a hook slightly smaller than usual for your yarn so the fabric stays dense and smooth. This keeps the limbs neat, the face refined, and the outfit crisp enough to hold the photographed silhouette.

Main Bunny
Legs Make 2
The legs are long, slim, and evenly cylindrical, ending in rounded shoes. For the photographed shape, the feet are slightly wider than the ankles, but not oversized. Stuff the lower foot firmly and the upper leg more lightly so the bunny can sit with a soft natural bend.

Shoe Base in Brown
- Round 1: 6 sc in MR. (6)
- Round 2: inc around. (12)
- Round 3: sc, inc around. (18)
- Round 4: 2 sc, inc around. (24)
- Round 5: sc around in BLO. (24)
- Rounds 6 to 7: sc around. (24)
- Round 8: 6 sc, 6 dec, 6 sc. (18)
- Round 9: 5 sc, 4 dec, 5 sc. (14)
Add a small insert of cardboard if you want a flatter shoe base. Stuff the toe area well. The front should stay rounded and full, while the heel remains slightly narrower. Change to body color at the end of the shoe section.
Leg in Beige
- Round 10: sc around. (14)
- Rounds 11 to 34: sc around. (14)
Stuff the ankle and lower leg firmly, then lighten the stuffing as you continue upward. Flatten the top opening and crochet 7 sc through both sides. Fasten off on the first leg. On the second leg, do not fasten off. You will join the legs to form the body.
Body
The body is compact and slightly pear-shaped, smaller than the head so the doll keeps its gentle childlike proportions. The upper chest should remain smooth because the cardigan sits over it. The waistline is narrow, giving room for the flared skirt to sit cleanly.
- With second leg still attached, ch 4 and join to first leg with sc.
- Round 1: 7 sc across first leg, 4 sc across chain, 7 sc across second leg, 4 sc on other side of chain. (22)
- Round 2: 7 sc, inc in each of next 4 sts, 7 sc, inc in each of next 4 sts. (30)
- Rounds 3 to 5: sc around. (30)
- Round 6: 4 sc, dec around. (25)
- Rounds 7 to 9: sc around. (25)
- Round 10: 3 sc, dec around. (20)
- Rounds 11 to 13: sc around. (20)
- Round 14: 2 sc, dec around. (15)
- Round 15: sc around. (15)
Stuff the body firmly at the lower part and moderately at the upper chest. The neck should be stable, so avoid leaving the top too soft. Fasten off with a long tail for sewing the head later if you prefer separate assembly.
Arms Make 2
The arms are medium length, straight, and softly tapered. They hang naturally to the sides and reach to the top edge of the skirt. Do not overstuff. The photographed arms look flexible rather than stiff, with a neat rounded paw at the end.
- Round 1: 6 sc in MR. (6)
- Round 2: inc around. (12)
- Round 3: sc around. (12)
- Round 4: 4 sc, 2 dec, 4 sc. (10)
- Rounds 5 to 20: sc around. (10)
Stuff only the lower half of the arm. Flatten the top opening and crochet 5 sc through both sides. Fasten off, leaving a long tail for sewing. Make sure both arms match in length and thickness.
Head
The head is the focal point of the design. It is broad and round with a softly defined muzzle. The cheeks are full, the forehead smooth, and the lower face slightly tucked inward so the embroidered nose sits forward in a sweet rabbit expression.
- Round 1: 6 sc in MR. (6)
- Round 2: inc around. (12)
- Round 3: sc, inc around. (18)
- Round 4: 2 sc, inc around. (24)

- Rounds 9 to 17: sc around. (48)
- Round 18: 6 sc, dec around. (42)
- Round 19: 5 sc, dec around. (36)
Insert the safety eyes between Rounds 12 and 13, about 10 stitches apart. In the photo, the eyes are set wide for a calm, gentle expression. Stuff the head firmly before the final decreases, paying extra attention to the cheeks and forehead.
- Round 20: 4 sc, dec around. (30)
- Round 21: 3 sc, dec around. (24)
- Round 22: 2 sc, dec around. (18)
- Round 23: sc, dec around. (12)
- Round 24: dec around. (6)

Fasten off and close the opening. Shape the head in your hands so the face stays round and not pointed. If needed, add a little extra stuffing through the closing gap before sealing fully.
Muzzle Definition
Using beige yarn, bring the needle in from the neck opening and out at the center lower face. Make two soft sculpting passes from the lower sides of the face toward the muzzle center to create a rounded snout area. Pull gently. The effect should be subtle, not deep.
Ears Make 2
The ears are long, flattened, and softly rounded at the ends. They begin slightly narrow at the top, then widen gently through the middle before tapering. In the image, both ears hang downward close to the face and reach to about chest level.
- Round 1: 6 sc in MR. (6)
- Round 2: inc around. (12)
- Round 3: sc, inc around. (18)
- Round 4: 2 sc, inc around. (24)
- Rounds 5 to 18: sc around. (24)
- Round 19: 2 sc, dec around. (18)
- Rounds 20 to 30: sc around. (18)
- Round 31: sc, dec around. (12)
- Rounds 32 to 36: sc around. (12)
Do not stuff. Flatten each ear and close with 6 sc through both layers, or sew closed for a cleaner finish. Leave a long tail. The ears should remain soft and drapey, so avoid any stabilizing wire.
Facial Embroidery
Use dark brown or taupe embroidery floss for the nose and mouth. Stitch a small inverted triangle or softly rounded Y-shape centered on the muzzle. Extend one short vertical line downward, then split it into two tiny curves for the mouth.
The expression in the image is minimal and refined. Keep the features small. The nose should sit low enough to give the bunny a gentle face, but not so low that it disappears into the chin area. Check the face from the front before knotting off.
Cardigan in Cream
The cardigan is short, textured, and slightly open at the front. It has small sleeves and a scalloped lower edge. The shoulders sit close to the neck, and the front opening frames the central cameo detail. This piece should fit snugly around the upper body.
Body of Cardigan
Work in turned rows.
- Ch 26.
- Row 1: Starting in second ch from hook, sc across. (25)
- Rows 2 to 7: ch 1, turn, sc across. (25)
- Row 8: ch 1, turn, 5 sc, skip 2, 11 sc, skip 2, 5 sc. This forms armholes. (21)
- Rows 9 to 13: ch 1, turn, sc across. (21)
Fold around the bunny body to check fit. The cardigan should end just above the waistline so the belt shows clearly. If your tension is loose, add one extra row before finishing.
Front Opening Shaping
- Divide for left and right front with a center opening of about 3 to 4 stitches.
- Work 5 rows on one front panel, decreasing 1 stitch at the neck edge every other row.
- Repeat for the other front panel.
- Work straight across the back section for the same number of rows.
- Join shoulders neatly with slip stitches or sewing.
Sleeves
Attach cream yarn at each armhole.
- Round 1: evenly work 12 sc around the opening.
- Rounds 2 to 4: sc around. (12)
- Round 5: sc, dec around. (8)
- Round 6: sc around. (8)
Fasten off. The sleeves should be short and lightly puffed. Add a simple edging around the cuffs with small slip stitches if you want a tidy finish that resembles the photo.
Cardigan Edging
Attach yarn at the lower front edge. Work one round or one row of slip stitches or sc around the full cardigan edge, including the neckline and front opening. Along the lower edge, add a gentle scallop by working sl st, sc, hdc, sc, sl st across every few stitches.

Cameo Detail
For the center brooch look, crochet a tiny oval in cream or beige, then mount it on a brown or bronze embroidered frame.
- Ch 5.
- Round 1: sc in second ch from hook, 2 sc, 3 sc in last ch, working on opposite side 2 sc, inc. (10)
- Round 2: inc, 2 sc, 3 inc, 2 sc, 2 inc. (16)
Fasten off and sew at the center front of the cardigan, just below the neck opening. Surround it with a line of dark embroidery or attach to a small metal setting if desired.
Skirt in Rust
The skirt is full, circular, and firmly structured. It begins at the waist and flares outward in steady rounds, ending in a smooth hem that angles slightly downward when the bunny is seated. The front right side carries floral embroidery and tiny decorative dots.
- Ch enough to fit around the bunny waist snugly, or begin with 30 sc in a joined round.
- Round 1: sc around. (30)
- Round 2: sc around in FLO. (30)
- Round 3: 4 sc, inc around. (36)
- Round 4: sc around. (36)
- Round 5: 5 sc, inc around. (42)
- Round 6: sc around. (42)
- Round 7: 6 sc, inc around. (48)
- Round 8: sc around. (48)
- Round 9: 7 sc, inc around. (54)
- Round 10: sc around. (54)
- Round 11: 8 sc, inc around. (60)
- Rounds 12 to 15: sc around. (60)
Try the skirt on the bunny after Round 12. The flare should begin at the high waist and spread into a neat bell shape. If you want more fullness, add one increase round and one plain round before the hem.
Floral Embroidery on Skirt
The flower cluster sits near the lower right front. Use dusty rose, soft green, ivory, and mustard tones. Keep it small and balanced. The look in the image is delicate, not dense.
- Embroider two leafy stems in green.
- Add one larger rust flower with five rounded petals.
- Add three to four tiny ivory buds or French-knot style dots.
- Scatter a few tiny beige stitches around the motif for a hand-finished look.
Belt in Brown
The belt is wide and prominent, sitting across the waistline between cardigan and skirt. The buckle area is centered slightly low in front, and the strap appears wrapped rather than stiff. This detail adds contrast and defines the silhouette strongly.
- Ch a length that wraps around the bunny waist over the skirt, about 24 to 28 chains depending on yarn.
- Row 1: sc in second ch from hook and across.
- Rows 2 to 4: ch 1, turn, sc across.
Fasten off. Wrap around the waist and sew in place. For the buckle, either attach a tiny craft buckle or crochet a small rectangle and embroider the center opening. Add a short strap end crossing the buckle area to mimic the photographed belt.
Mary Jane Shoes Straps
Return to each shoe. With dark brown yarn, attach at the outer side of the shoe opening.
- Ch 6 to 8, depending on your tension and desired strap length.
- Anchor the chain to the inner side of the shoe opening with sl st.
- Work back across the chain with sl st or sc for a firmer strap.
Add a tiny stitched buckle, bead, or embroidered square on the outer side. The straps should sit slightly angled, matching the vintage shoe style in the image.
Beret in Olive
The beret is soft, wide, and slightly slouched to the bunny’s left side. It sits low across the forehead and one ear appears tucked behind it. The crown must be broad enough to drape gently instead of looking like a flat cap.
- Round 1: 6 sc in MR. (6)
- Round 2: inc around. (12)
- Round 3: sc, inc around. (18)
- Round 4: 2 sc, inc around. (24)

- Round 20: 4 sc, dec around. (30)
- Round 21: sc around. (30)
📌Thank you for reading the article
Fasten off. Check the fit on the head. The opening should be snug enough to stay in place without stretching the stitches. Shape the crown so it tilts left. Sew lightly at a few hidden points if you want the slouch to stay fixed.
Beret Badge
Attach a tiny buckle, embroidered square, or crocheted tab on the front right side of the beret. The detail should be small and understated, acting like a simple metal trim.
Handbag in Beige
The handbag is rounded and small, with short handles and a front button accent. It stands beside the bunny and looks like a soft mini satchel. Keep the stitches dense so the bag keeps its shape even without heavy lining.
- Ch 8.
- Round 1: starting in second ch from hook, 6 sc, 3 sc in last ch, 5 sc on opposite side, inc. (16)
- Round 2: inc, 5 sc, 3 inc, 5 sc, 2 inc. (22)
- Rounds 3 to 8: sc around. (22)
- Round 9: work a flap over one half only, 11 sc.
- Rows 10 to 13: ch 1, turn, sc across 11.
Make two handles by chaining 12 to 14 and sewing each end to the bag top. Add a small brown embroidered circle or tiny button on the front. Optionally line the flap edge with slip stitches for a neater outline.
Coin Purse in Beige
This tiny purse sits in front of the handbag and has a soft rounded rectangle shape. It looks like a clasp pouch. Keep it minimal and neat because the small scale is part of the charm.
- Ch 7.
- Round 1: starting in second ch from hook, 5 sc, 3 sc in last ch, 4 sc on opposite side, inc. (14)
- Rounds 2 to 5: sc around. (14)
Flatten the piece and sew the top almost closed. Add a tiny curved line of darker yarn or a small bead clasp at the center. Leave it lightly stuffed or unstuffed depending on the look you prefer.
Mini Bunny
The mini bunny repeats the same color story and overall styling as the main doll. Its face is simpler, the limbs are shorter, and the clothes are very small, but the silhouette should still clearly echo the larger bunny standing beside it.
Mini Legs Make 2
- Round 1: 6 sc in MR. (6)
- Round 2: inc around. (12)
- Round 3: sc around in BLO. (12)
- Round 4: 4 sc, 2 dec, 4 sc. (10)
- Change to beige.
- Rounds 5 to 12: sc around. (10)
Flatten tops and close each with 5 sc. Join the legs just as for the larger bunny, but with a shorter bridge of 2 chains.
Mini Body

- Round 1: around both legs and chain bridge. (22)
- Rounds 2 to 4: sc around. (22)
- Round 5: 3 sc, dec around. (18)
- Rounds 6 to 7: sc around. (18)

- Round 10: 2 sc, dec around. (18)
- Round 11: sc, dec around. (12)

📌Thank you for reading the article
Flatten and sew to the head. Angle them downward close to the cheeks.
Mini Skirt
- Begin with 18 sc around the waist.
- Round 1: sc around. (18)
- Round 2: 2 sc, inc around. (24)
- Round 3: sc around. (24)
- Round 4: 3 sc, inc around. (30)
- Round 5: sc around. (30)
Add one tiny embroidered flower or two dots on the lower edge if you want it to match the main doll more closely.
Mini Cardigan
Work a tiny rectangle in cream, fitted around the upper body. Add miniature sleeves if desired, or simply wrap and stitch the rectangle to resemble the same cropped cardigan shape. Sew a tiny center trim in front.
Mini Belt and Beret
Make a short brown chain strip for the belt and a tiny olive beret by increasing to 24 or 30 stitches at the widest round, then decreasing back to fit the head. Add a small embroidered band detail on the front.
Assembly
Sew the head securely to the body, centering it so the face looks straight ahead. Because the head is larger than the body, stitch around the neck twice if needed. Add more stuffing to the neck area before closing fully if the head feels unstable.
Sew the ears to the upper sides of the head, beginning slightly behind the eye line. Let them fall close to the cheeks. One ear may tuck slightly under the beret, while the other remains fully visible, matching the photographed asymmetry.
Sew the arms to the body at the shoulder line, just below the head. The arms should angle downward naturally and sit close to the cardigan sides. Avoid attaching them too low, or the proportions will lose the tidy dressed-doll appearance.
Dress the bunny in the skirt first, then position the cardigan. Wrap and secure the belt around the waist over the top edge of the skirt. Slide on the beret and tilt it to the bunny’s left. Stitch the beret invisibly in a few places.
Final Assembly and Facial Detailing
- Check that both eyes are level before completing the face.
- Keep the nose small and centered on the rounded muzzle.
- Make the mouth lines short so the expression stays soft.
- Shape the cheeks gently with your fingers after embroidering.
- Confirm that the cardigan front frames the cameo evenly.
- Place the floral embroidery low on the skirt front right side.
- Tilt the beret so it sits low over one side of the forehead.
Care Notes
- Display away from strong direct sunlight to protect the colors.
- Spot clean whenever possible.
- Avoid heavy pulling on the belt, beret trim, handbag handles, and shoe straps.
- If gifting to a young child, embroider eyes instead of using safety eyes.
- Store the mini bunny and accessories together in a dust-free box when not displayed.

Detailed Cleaning and Preservation Guidelines
For light dust, use clean dry hands or a very soft brush. For small marks, dab gently with a cloth that is only slightly damp and a little mild soap. Do not soak the doll unless your yarn and stuffing are known to handle full washing.
If deeper cleaning is necessary, hand wash briefly in cool water, support the shape with both hands, and press out water in a towel without twisting. Reshape the head, ears, skirt, and beret while damp. Dry flat in a well-ventilated area away from heat.
To preserve the structured look, keep the doll seated or supported when displayed. Avoid crushing the beret and skirt in storage. Tissue paper inside the handbag and skirt can help maintain their shape during long-term storage or shipping.
