Daffodil Honey-Breeze Bunny – Crochet

This sweet spring amigurumi set features a long-eared bunny dressed in soft daffodil shades, a matching chick friend, a small backpack, a tiny honey pot, and a white flower bouquet. It is the kind of crochet stuffed rabbit set people often search for as a handmade nursery gift, collectible doll, or heirloom spring decor piece.

The finished design has the polished look of a boutique amigurumi bunny doll with coordinated accessories, yet it is still approachable when worked slowly and carefully. If you enjoy making items that resemble a premium PDF pattern, artisan bunny plush, or handmade Easter bunny gift, this design will give you that refined result.

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

Design Overview

This pattern recreates the full set shown in the image: a standing bunny doll, a brimmed hat, a short-sleeve cardigan, a three-tier scalloped skirt, shoes with flower tabs, floral wrist corsages, a tiny backpack, a honey pot, a tied flower bouquet, and a small chick companion wearing coordinated clothing and hat.

The overall style is gentle, tidy, and highly symmetrical. The bunny has a rounded head, a soft cylindrical torso, long straight arms, long slim legs, and long floppy ears that hang from under the hat. The clothing is fitted rather than oversized, so stitch tension matters throughout the project.

Materials

• Main bunny color: light cream or warm ivory cotton yarn
• Pale yellow: soft daffodil yellow for hat, cardigan, upper skirt tier, and chick hat
• Light beige: sandy beige for lower skirt tier, backpack, shoes, and honey lid accent
• Off-white: for middle skirt tier, bouquet petals, and flower accents
• Golden yellow: for flower centers and honey pot body
• Muted green: for bouquet stems and leaf accents
• Light peach or blush: for nose and soft hat trim detail
• Small amount of orange: for chick beak
• Black safety eyes: 8 mm for bunny, 6 mm for chick, or embroidered eyes if preferred
• Stuffing: firm polyester fiberfill
• Hook: use a hook small enough to produce dense fabric; 2.0 mm to 2.5 mm works well for fine cotton yarn
• Tapestry needle
• Stitch markers
• Small buttons or crocheted bobble buttons: for cardigan front
• Thin craft wire or floral wire: optional, only if you want bouquet stems to stay posed

Yarn and Gauge Notes

The stitches in the image are compact, even, and fine. This set looks best in sport-weight or light DK cotton with a relatively small hook. The fabric should be dense enough that stuffing does not show through. If your fabric looks open, go down a hook size.

The main bunny in the photo appears to be about 9 to 11 inches tall from foot to top of head, not including the hat. The chick companion looks about one third of the bunny’s height. The accessories are scaled tightly, so do not switch to thick yarn unless you want a much larger result.

Bunny Head

Work in continuous rounds unless noted. Stuff firmly as you go. The head in the image is almost spherical, but slightly wider at the cheek area and gently flatter at the face. That shape helps the safety eyes sit in a sweet forward-facing position.

1. Round 1: 6 sc in MR. (6)
2. Round 2: inc around. (12)
3. Round 3: repeat 1 sc, inc around. (18)

Insert the 8 mm eyes between Rounds 12 and 13 with about 8 visible stitches between them. Before securing, slightly pull the eye posts outward and check that the face looks calm and soft, not overly wide. The image shows a centered face with the eyes level and evenly spaced.

1. Round 18: repeat 6 sc, dec around. (42)
2. Round 19: repeat 5 sc, dec around. (36)
3. Round 20: repeat 4 sc, dec around. (30)
4. Begin stuffing firmly and shape the cheeks with extra filling in the lower front.
5. Round 21: repeat 3 sc, dec around. (24)
6. Round 22: repeat 2 sc, dec around. (18)

The neck is slim in the photo, so finish the head with a short neck opening rather than a very wide base.

1. Round 23: BLO, sc around. (18)
2. Round 24: sc around. (18)
3. Fasten off if sewing to the body later, or continue directly into the body if you prefer one-piece construction.

Muzzle and Nose

The bunny’s muzzle is subtle, not a separate protruding snout. Use light sculpting rather than a large sewn-on piece. Thread cream yarn and make one gentle horizontal indentation line under the eyes if desired. Embroider a small upside-down triangle nose in light peach.

From the bottom point of the nose, embroider a very short vertical line downward and then a soft shallow smile to each side. Keep the mouth delicate. In the image, the face stays minimal and clean, with the eyes doing most of the expression work.

Bunny Ears

The ears are long, narrow, and softly flattened. They begin a little wider at the base and taper toward rounded ends. Make two in cream. Do not stuff them, or add only a trace of stuffing at the base.

1. Round 1: 6 sc in MR. (6)
2. Round 2: inc around. (12)
3. Round 3: repeat 1 sc, inc around. (18)
4. Rounds 4 to 6: sc around. (18)
5. Round 7: repeat 7 sc, dec, 7 sc, dec. (16)
6. Rounds 8 to 18: sc around. (16)
7. Round 19: repeat 6 sc, dec around. (14)
8. Rounds 20 to 28: sc around. (14)
9. Flatten the opening and sc through both sides for 6 to 7 stitches, leaving a short unworked seam allowance for sewing.

Sew the ears to the upper sides of the head, slightly behind the eye line so they fall down the sides of the face. They should hang straight, with the lower ends reaching near the shoulder area once the hat is on.

Bunny Body

The body is a neat, lightly tapered cylinder. It is smaller than the head, which gives the doll a childlike proportion. Use cream yarn.

1. Round 1: 6 sc in MR. (6)
2. Round 2: inc around. (12)
3. Round 3: repeat 1 sc, inc around. (18)
4. Round 4: repeat 2 sc, inc around. (24)
5. Round 5: repeat 3 sc, inc around. (30)
6. Rounds 6 to 10: sc around. (30)
7. Round 11: repeat 8 sc, dec around. (27)
8. Rounds 12 to 16: sc around. (27)
9. Round 17: repeat 7 sc, dec around. (24)
10. Rounds 18 to 20: sc around. (24)

Stuff the body firmly but do not overfill the waist area. The cardigan and skirt need to sit smoothly over the body. Leave a long tail for sewing if you made the head separately. Sew the head onto the body with the face centered.

Bunny Arms

The arms are slim tubes with slightly rounded hands. In the image, they hang straight down and end just below the skirt waistline. Make two in cream.

1. Round 1: 6 sc in MR. (6)
2. Round 2: inc around. (12)
3. Rounds 3 to 4: sc around. (12)
4. Round 5: repeat 4 sc, dec twice. (10)
5. Rounds 6 to 17: sc around. (10)

Stuff only the lower half firmly and the upper half lightly so the sleeves sit nicely. Flatten the top and close with 5 sc through both layers. Sew to the body just below the neckline. Angle them slightly downward and forward.

Bunny Legs

The legs are longer than the arms and fairly straight, with simple rounded feet hidden inside the shoes. Make two in cream.

1. Round 1: 6 sc in MR. (6)
2. Round 2: inc around. (12)
3. Round 3: repeat 1 sc, inc around. (18)
4. Rounds 4 to 5: sc around. (18)
5. Round 6: repeat 4 sc, dec, 4 sc, dec, 4 sc, dec. (15)
6. Rounds 7 to 20: sc around. (15)

Stuff firmly, especially at the ankle and calf so the doll can stand better with support. Sew the legs to the lower body close together. The image shows parallel legs with only a small gap between them.

Layered Scalloped Skirt

This skirt is one of the most important visual features. It has three horizontal tiers: pale yellow on top, off-white in the middle, and light beige at the bottom. Each tier ends in a rounded shell-like scallop. The skirt should flare gently, not stick outward too sharply.

You can make the skirt directly onto the body waist using unused front loops, or create it as a removable skirt with a waist band. Direct attachment gives the cleanest finish and best likeness to the image.

Waist Foundation

1. Join pale yellow at the waistline.
2. Round 1: sc evenly around waist. Aim for 30 stitches.
3. Round 2: BLO, sc around. (30)
4. Round 3: repeat 4 sc, inc around. (36)
5. Round 4: sc around. (36)

Top Tier in Pale Yellow

1. Round 5: repeat 5 sc, inc around. (42)
2. Round 6: sc around. (42)
3. Round 7: make scallops by repeating: sl st in next st, skip 1 st, 5 dc in next st, skip 1 st, sl st in next st.

Fasten off. The top tier in the image is short and sits high under the cardigan hem. Keep the shells even and rounded.

Middle Tier in Off-White

Join off-white into the front loops left from Round 2 or into a row just under the first tier.

1. Round 1: sc around. (30)
2. Round 2: repeat 4 sc, inc around. (36)
3. Round 3: sc around. (36)
4. Round 4: repeat 5 sc, inc around. (42)
5. Round 5: sc around. (42)
6. Round 6: repeat scallop sequence as above.

Bottom Tier in Light Beige

Join beige beneath the middle tier. This tier is the deepest one and should be slightly longer than the others.

1. Round 1: sc around. (30)
2. Round 2: repeat 3 sc, inc around. (38)
3. Round 3: sc around. (38)
4. Round 4: repeat 4 sc, inc around. (45 or 46, depending on your spacing)
5. Round 5: sc around.
6. Round 6: work scallops evenly around using 5 dc shells.

If needed, lightly steam or finger-shape the skirt so the tiers fall in soft descending ruffles. The beige lower tier should be visible below the white tier, exactly as shown.

Cardigan

The cardigan is pale yellow with short puff sleeves, a small collar, three front closures, and a flower cluster on one side of the chest. It is fitted, cropped, and ends just over the top tier of the skirt. Work in rows so it opens at the front.

Back and Front Body of Cardigan

1. Chain a length that fits around the upper body with front opening allowance. For the stated bunny size, start with 28 to 32 chains.
2. Row 1: sc across.
3. Rows 2 to 8: sc across, turning each row.

📌Thank you for reading the article

Shape arm openings by dividing the piece into left front, back, and right front. Work each area with short shaping rows if needed. Since the image shows a snug little jacket, test against the doll often.

Sleeves

The sleeves are rounded and puffed. Work them into the arm openings.

1. Join yarn at arm opening.
2. Round 1: sc evenly around, slightly increasing to create a rounded puff.
3. Rounds 2 to 4: sc around.
4. Round 5: dec evenly once or twice to bring in the cuff.
5. Round 6: sl st around or sc around for a neat finish.

Collar

Join yarn at neckline and work one row of sc. On the second row, create a tiny pointed collar by increasing slightly near both front edges and making 2 to 3 turning rows on each side. Keep the collar flat and small.

Front Bands and Closures

Add one row of sc down each front edge. Sew on three tiny buttons or make three tiny bobbles. The photo shows a centered vertical closure line with three pale buttons. You may embroider button loops or sew the front permanently closed after dressing the doll.

Chest Flower Cluster

Make three miniature flowers: two golden yellow and one white-centered yellow or white-petaled flower, matching the image. Sew them onto the cardigan front near the shoulder. Add two small green leaves beneath the flowers for balance.

Brimmed Hat

The hat is softly bucket-shaped with a rounded crown and a gently flared brim. It sits low enough to overlap the ears. The pale pink and yellow trim runs around the base of the crown.

1. Round 1: 6 sc in MR. (6)
2. Round 2: inc around. (12)
3. Round 3: repeat 1 sc, inc around. (18)
4. Round 4: repeat 2 sc, inc around. (24)
5. Round 5: repeat 3 sc, inc around. (30)
6. Round 6: repeat 4 sc, inc around. (36)
7. Round 7: repeat 5 sc, inc around. (42)
8. Rounds 8 to 13: sc around. (42)
9. Round 14: BLO, repeat 6 sc, inc around. (48)
10. Round 15: sc around. (48)
11. Round 16: repeat 7 sc, inc around. (54)
12. Round 17: sc around. (54)

For a slightly firmer brim, work the final round in hdc or crab stitch. The brim should curl down gently, not flare dramatically. Embroider or surface-crochet a thin yellow cord and a softer blush chain around the crown base to match the two-tone trim in the image.

Shoes

The shoes are beige Mary Jane-style slippers with cream top panels and tiny side flower tabs. They are shallow and neat, covering only the lower foot.

Begin with a sole matched to your foot size. For each shoe, make an oval base, then build a short side wall, then add a cream top insert.

1. Round 1: ch 6, work around both sides of chain to form an oval sole.
2. Round 2: inc at both rounded ends until the sole matches the foot.
3. Round 3: BLO, sc around for the shoe side wall.
4. Rounds 4 to 5: sc around.
5. Front shaping: work decreases across the toe in short rows until the opening becomes oval.

For the cream top panel, stitch across the front opening with cream yarn in neat rows of sc. Make a tiny flower tab for each outer side using 5-petal mini flowers in pale yellow. Sew securely. Slip the shoes onto the feet and tack in place with a few hidden stitches.

Wrist Flower Corsages

Each wrist has a small bracelet-style flower cluster. Make a narrow green band or chain, wrap it around the wrist, and attach one tiny white flower with a yellow center plus a green leaf. Keep these tiny, since the image shows a very delicate scale.

Backpack

The backpack is light beige, rectangular, and softly structured with a flap, small front pocket, and two straps. It leans beside the bunny in the photo, so it does not need to open fully unless you want it to.

1. Make a rectangle for the back panel.
2. Work around it in rounds to create depth.
3. Make a matching front panel if you prefer seamed construction.
4. Add a smaller rectangle as the front pocket.
5. Make a flap with rounded corners and sew it at the top back.
6. Add two narrow chain or sc straps.
7. Add one tiny button on the flap and one on the pocket.

📌Thank you for reading the article

The backpack should be about half the height of the bunny torso. Keep it compact and tidy so it looks proportional beside the doll.

Honey Pot

The honey pot is a tiny accent piece with a golden body, cream lid, and a small hanging tag. It resembles a little jar rather than a tall bottle.

1. Round 1: 6 sc in MR with golden yellow. (6)
2. Round 2: inc around. (12)
3. Round 3: repeat 1 sc, inc around. (18)
4. Rounds 4 to 6: sc around. (18)
5. Round 7: BLO, repeat 1 sc, dec around. (12)
6. Stuff lightly.
7. Round 8: sc around. (12)

For the lid, make a small off-white circle, then add one scalloped edging round so it looks like a fabric cover. Stitch it on top. For the tag, crochet a tiny beige rectangle or cut one from stiff felt and tie it with thread.

Bouquet

The bouquet contains several white daisy-like flowers with yellow centers, gathered with pale green stems. In the photo, the flowers lie in front of the bunny.

1. Make 5 small flowers.
2. For each flower, create a yellow center with 6 sc in MR.
3. Add 5 petals by repeating: sl st in next st, ch 2, 2 dc in same st, ch 2, sl st in same st.
4. Make a thin stem with green yarn or floral wire wrapped in green yarn.
5. Attach petals to stems and gather together.

Finish with a short wrap around the stems in cream or green. Keep the bouquet flat and delicate rather than bulky.

Chick Companion

The chick is round and compact, with a pale yellow head and body, tiny wings, black eyes, orange beak, a yellow hat with flower, a cream vest front, and a layered skirt in matching tones. Its shape is squat and charming.

Chick Head and Body

Work as one piece in pale yellow.

1. Round 1: 6 sc in MR. (6)
2. Round 2: inc around. (12)
3. Round 3: repeat 1 sc, inc around. (18)
4. Round 4: repeat 2 sc, inc around. (24)
5. Round 5: repeat 3 sc, inc around. (30)
6. Rounds 6 to 11: sc around. (30)

Insert 6 mm eyes between Rounds 8 and 9. Add a tiny orange beak centered between them. Keep the beak short and stubby, matching the image.

1. Round 12: repeat 3 sc, dec around. (24)
2. Round 13: sc around. (24)
3. Round 14: repeat 2 sc, dec around. (18)
4. Round 15: sc around. (18)

Stuff firmly. Flatten the base slightly so it sits well.

Chick Wings

Make two tiny semicircular wings in pale yellow.

1. 6 sc in MR.
2. Work one extra row of 6 sc across half the circle.
3. Sew to each side of the body.

Chick Clothing

The front of the chick has a cream vest-like bib panel with a tiny beige placket. Stitch a cream oval or shallow rectangle onto the front. Add two or three beige embroidery stitches for the closure detail.

For the skirt, add the same three-tone tier effect used on the bunny, but scaled much smaller. The top visible tier is pale yellow and the bottom tier is deeper beige. Keep the ruffles short so the chick remains squat and balanced.

Chick Hat

Make a miniature version of the bunny hat in pale yellow with a gently flared brim. Add one small white-and-yellow flower to the side, just as shown. The hat should sit low but leave the eyes fully visible.

Final Assembly and Facial Detailing

Dress the bunny in the skirt first, then cardigan, then shoes, then hat. Add the wrist flowers last. Check that the ears fall naturally from beneath the hat brim and that both ears hang to the same length. Adjust with a few hidden tacking stitches if needed.

When sewing the head to the body, make sure the face points straight forward. The bunny in the image has a calm, centered expression. A crooked head or uneven eyes will change the entire mood, so take extra time at this stage.

Place the cardigan flowers high on the chest, not near the waist. Keep the skirt tiers aligned so each scalloped edge is fully visible. The beige bottom tier should peek out clearly below the off-white layer.

Care Notes

• Spot clean whenever possible.
• If full washing is needed, hand wash gently in cool water.
• Do not wring the doll or accessories.
• Reshape the hat brim, skirt scallops, and bouquet while damp.
• Lay flat to dry away from strong sun.

Quick Checklist Before You Finish

• Both bunny ears are level and hang evenly.
• Eyes are centered and nose is small and neat.
• Cardigan front closes evenly with three buttons.
• Skirt has three visible color tiers.
• Shoes match in height and opening shape.
• Hat brim curves gently downward.
• Backpack flap and pocket are attached securely.
• Honey pot lid sits centered.
• Bouquet flowers are grouped tightly.
• Chick hat and skirt match the main palette.

Detailed Cleaning and Preservation Guidelines

For long-term preservation, keep the set in a dry, dust-free space. Cotton yarn holds shape nicely, but pale shades can yellow if stored in direct sunlight for long periods. Displaying the set inside a cabinet or on a shaded shelf will help preserve the soft cream and daffodil tones.

If the doll is handled often, inspect the flower appliqués, hat trim, and shoe tabs from time to time. These are the smallest attached details and may loosen first. Reinforce them with matching sewing thread before storing the set for a season.

When packing the set away, wrap the hat separately so the brim does not crease sharply. Store the bouquet flat, and avoid placing heavy items over the backpack or honey pot. A breathable fabric bag or acid-free tissue helps protect the texture without trapping moisture.
