Blush Blossom Bunny – Crochet

Blush Blossom Bunny – Crochet

This sweet amigurumi set features a softly dressed bunny doll with a blossom-trim skirt, a mint bucket hat, tiny shoes, a crossbody bag, a flower bouquet, a small envelope, and a matching bird companion. It has the charm of a handmade crochet bunny doll, collectible nursery decor piece, and spring gift item all in one.

The finished design is ideal for makers who love heirloom-style plush animals, boutique amigurumi patterns, and pastel spring accessories. It also suits readers searching for a stuffed rabbit doll, artisan crochet gift, floral bunny decor, and handmade toy display piece with a coordinated mini companion.

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 with a large head, slim body, long floppy ears, short sleeves, a pale yellow wrap-style top, a peach skirt with stitched flowers around the hem, a mint hat with a floral band, little shoes with side bows, and a small crossbody purse.

The set also includes a tiny bird dressed to match, plus the loose accessories placed at the bunny’s feet: a flower bouquet and a small envelope-style piece. The proportions are important. The bunny’s head is rounded and wide, the body is neat and narrow, and the skirt flares gently without becoming stiff.

Finished Size and Gauge Notes

The bunny should be noticeably taller than the bird and accessories. The head should measure a little wider than the torso. The ears should hang to about the waist. The skirt should sit high on the body and flare over the hips. The hat should sit low enough to frame the face without covering the eyes.

Keep your stitches tight and even. The original look depends on clean, dense rounds with very little visible stuffing through the fabric. If your stitches are loose, go down a hook size. The texture should be smooth and firm, especially on the face, hat, shoes, and bird body.

  • Inner hanging ears: warm beige
  • Top: pale yellow
  • Skirt: blush peach with cream hem and embroidered vines
  • Hat: mint with floral trim band
  • Purse: cream with mint strap and mint button details
  • Bird: brown head and upper body, yellow collar area, cream lower body, mint hat, cream purse with mint accents

Bunny Head

Work the head in continuous rounds using light cream. This head should be full and round, with a softly flattened face area rather than a pointed muzzle. Stuff firmly as you go, but keep the lower front face slightly smoother for neat embroidery.

  1. Round 1: 6 sc in MR
  2. Round 2: inc around = 12
  3. Round 3: (sc, inc) around = 18
  4. Round 4: (2 sc, inc) around = 24
  5. Round 5: (3 sc, inc) around = 30
  6. Round 6: (4 sc, inc) around = 36
  7. Round 7: (5 sc, inc) around = 42
  8. Round 8: (6 sc, inc) around = 48
  9. Rounds 9–18: sc around = 48
  10. Place the eyes between rounds 11 and 12 with about 8 visible stitches between them.
  11. Round 19: (6 sc, dec) around = 42
  12. Round 20: (5 sc, dec) around = 36
  13. Round 21: (4 sc, dec) around = 30
  14. Round 22: (3 sc, dec) around = 24
  15. Stuff firmly.
  16. Round 23: (2 sc, dec) around = 18
  17. Round 24: (sc, dec) around = 12

Leave the opening for joining to the neck and upper body. Do not close completely if you prefer to sew the head to the body after checking the posture. The head in the photo sits very straight, not tilted far forward or back.

Muzzle and Face Shaping

The bunny has a minimal face. There is no large protruding snout. Instead, create a tiny triangular nose in pale beige or dusty pink embroidery, centered a little below the eyes. From the bottom point of the triangle, stitch a short vertical line downward.

Add a soft blush tint under the eyes if desired. Keep it faint. The mouth should remain understated. The face works because the eyes are glossy and round while the nose is tiny, centered, and delicate.

Body and Neck

The torso is slim, cylindrical, and slightly narrower than the head. Work in cream. The bunny wears a separate skirt and stitched-on top overlay, so keep the body simple and smooth.

  1. Round 1: 6 sc in MR
  2. Round 2: inc around = 12
  3. Round 3: (sc, inc) around = 18
  4. Round 4: (2 sc, inc) around = 24
  5. Rounds 5–11: sc around = 24
  6. Round 12: (2 sc, dec) around = 18
  7. Rounds 13–16: sc around = 18

Stuff the body firmly enough for the bunny to keep a neat silhouette, but do not overstuff the waist. The original figure has a gentle narrowing between the skirt and shoulders. Leave a long tail for sewing to the head if working separately.

Legs

The legs are long, straight, and modestly slim. They extend from under the skirt and end in neat little shoes. Work two in cream and stuff firmly, especially through the lower legs. The feet must be stable enough for the shoes to sit smoothly.

  1. Round 1: 6 sc in MR
  2. Round 2: inc around = 12
  3. Round 3: (sc, inc) around = 18
  4. Rounds 4–6: sc around = 18
  5. Round 7: (4 sc, dec) around = 15
  6. Rounds 8–18: sc around = 15

Flatten the upper opening only slightly and sew each leg evenly to the lower body. The legs in the image are parallel and close together. They should not angle outward.

Arms

The arms are soft tubes with a slight taper. They hang naturally downward and are attached just below the shoulder line. Work two in cream.

  1. Round 1: 6 sc in MR
  2. Round 2: inc around = 12
  3. Rounds 3–5: sc around = 12
  4. Round 6: (4 sc, dec) twice = 10
  5. Rounds 7–16: sc around = 10

Stuff lightly. Flatten the top opening and sew to the upper body so the arms angle slightly away from the torso. The original doll’s arms are relaxed and symmetrical, not raised.

Ears

The ears are long, flat, and floppy. The outer shape is cream, while the visible inner tone is warm beige. You can make them as single-layer beige pieces edged in cream, or as two layers sewn together. A two-layer method best matches the fuller look in the image.

Inner Ear Panel, Make 2

  1. Ch 7.
  2. Round 1: starting in second ch from hook, 5 sc, 3 sc in last ch, working on opposite side 4 sc, inc = 14
  3. Round 2: inc, 4 sc, 3 inc, 4 sc, 2 inc = 20
  4. Rounds 3–10: sc around = 20
  5. Round 11: (8 sc, dec) twice = 18
  6. Round 12: sc around = 18

Outer Ear Layer, Make 2

Repeat the same shape in cream, making it one round larger if you want a narrow cream border. Place beige inner layer over cream outer layer and join with a round of sc or whip stitch around the edge. Do not stuff.

Sew the ears to the sides of the head under the hat line. The top attachment should begin slightly above eye level and continue for a short seam. Let the ears fall straight down with a gentle outward curve near the ends.

Skirt

The skirt is one of the most visible pieces in the design. It is blush peach, worked in rounds, and flares outward. The stitch texture looks slightly taller than plain single crochet, so hdc works well. Add a cream hem for a clean edge. The skirt should sit high on the bunny’s waist.

  1. Round 1: Ch 24, join carefully without twisting.
  2. Round 2: hdc around = 24
  3. Round 3: (3 hdc, inc) around = 30
  4. Round 4: hdc around = 30
  5. Round 5: (4 hdc, inc) around = 36
  6. Round 6: hdc around = 36
  7. Round 7: (5 hdc, inc) around = 42
  8. Round 8: hdc around = 42
  9. Round 9: (6 hdc, inc) around = 48
  10. Rounds 10–12: hdc around = 48
  11. Final round: change to cream and sc around or work a neat crab stitch border.

Sew the skirt around the waist. The lower edge should reach just above the ankles. The skirt in the image is not dramatically wide. It has a sweet bell shape, soft drape, and enough flare to show the floral border clearly.

Embroidered Skirt Border and Waist Flowers

Using green yarn or embroidery thread, stitch a winding vine around the lower skirt, a little above the cream hem. Add small five-petal blossoms in ivory and pale yellow at regular intervals. Each flower should be tiny and rounded, with soft yellow centers.

At the bunny’s left waist, make a small floral cluster. Create several blossoms in ivory and yellow, then attach two mint green leaf stems underneath. This cluster should sit where the top overlaps the skirt, giving the outfit a spring bouquet accent.

Top and Front Bow

The upper garment is a pale yellow wrap-style top with short sleeves and a gathered center. There are two ways to achieve the look: crochet a separate shrug and sew it on, or stitch shaped panels directly over the torso. A separate piece gives the most polished result.

Back and Bodice Base

  1. Ch enough to fit around the upper body snugly.
  2. Work rows of sc or hdc to create a short bodice strip reaching from shoulder line to just above the waist.
  3. Sew this around the torso.

Wrap Front Panels

Crochet two small triangular or fan-shaped panels in pale yellow. Each one should begin narrow at the waist and widen toward the shoulder. Sew them to cross toward the center front, leaving a soft V shape at the neck.

Sleeves

Make two short cap sleeves in pale yellow. Work a small curved rectangle or short half-round and sew one to each shoulder area. The sleeves in the image are lightly rounded and sit a little away from the body.

Center Bow

Make a tiny bow in a pale peach or cream-beige shade. Wrap the center tightly so the loops stay narrow. Sew it to the middle of the top where the wrap panels meet. This small bow is essential because it finishes the gathered look of the bodice.

Hat

The mint hat is a soft bucket style with a rounded crown and a gently downward brim. It sits low and frames the face. Work in tight single crochet so the shape holds.

  1. Round 1: 6 sc in MR
  2. Round 2: inc around = 12
  3. Round 3: (sc, inc) around = 18
  4. Round 4: (2 sc, inc) around = 24
  5. Round 5: (3 sc, inc) around = 30
  6. Round 6: (4 sc, inc) around = 36
  7. Round 7: (5 sc, inc) around = 42
  8. Round 8: (6 sc, inc) around = 48
  9. Rounds 9–14: sc around = 48
  10. Round 15: BLO sc around = 48
  11. Round 16: (7 sc, inc) around = 54
  12. Rounds 17–19: sc around = 54

For the floral hat band, embroider or sew on a narrow strip around the lower crown in ivory with tiny peach and yellow blossoms. The trim should be delicate, not bulky. Sew the hat lightly to the head so it stays centered above the eyes.

Shoes

The bunny wears cream shoes with a rounded toe and tiny side bows. Make two. They should fit over the lower foot area and end just below the ankle line.

  1. Start with an oval sole in cream sized to the leg base.
  2. Work one or two rounds even to build the side wall.
  3. Decrease slightly at the upper opening so the shoe hugs the foot.
  4. Add a separate tiny bow to the outer side of each shoe.

Keep the shoes smooth and simple. There is no heavy strap or lace detail in the image. The bows are soft and small, placed near the ankle on the outer sides.

Crossbody Purse

The bunny’s purse is a small rectangular envelope bag in cream with a mint strap and two mint circular details on the flap area. There are also stitched decorative lines on one side that resemble simple embroidered marks. Make the purse neat and flat rather than puffy.

  1. Ch a short base chain.
  2. Work sc around both sides to form a small rectangle.
  3. Continue in rows or rounds until the body of the purse is complete.
  4. Fold the top down into a pointed or rounded flap.
  5. Sew sides closed if needed.
  6. Add a long mint strap and place it diagonally from shoulder to hip.

Embroider two mint circles or sew tiny flat crochet dots on the front. Add short stitched lines in dark thread on the lower right side to match the image. Sew the finished bag to rest on the bunny’s right hip.

Flower Bouquet

The bouquet lying beside the bunny consists of several tiny flowers in ivory and pale yellow attached to green stems. Keep it small and hand-held.

  • Make 5 to 7 tiny flowers with five petals each.
  • Use ivory for some flowers and pale yellow for others.
  • Add soft yellow centers.
  • Attach each flower to a green stem made from chained yarn wrapped or stitched for firmness.
  • Bind the stems together near the base with cream yarn.

Envelope Accessory

This little cream accessory is a tiny envelope or folded pouch. Work a small flat rectangle in cream, fold the lower edge upward, then fold a pointed flap downward. Sew one side lightly if necessary and add a tiny beige button or stitched dot at the center.

You may edge one side with mint to echo the purse details. Keep it very small and delicate so it looks like a miniature letter case placed beside the bouquet.

Bird Companion

The tiny bird companion mirrors the bunny’s outfit. It has a rounded brown head and upper body, tiny wings, a yellow collar or bib, a cream lower body, a mint hat, and a tiny cream bag. Its look should be soft and squat rather than tall.

Bird Head and Body

  1. Round 1: 6 sc in MR with brown
  2. Round 2: inc around = 12
  3. Round 3: (sc, inc) around = 18
  4. Round 4: (2 sc, inc) around = 24
  5. Rounds 5–7: sc around = 24
  6. Place very small eyes low on the face.
  7. Embroider a tiny dark beak centered between them.
  8. Change to yellow for 1 or 2 rounds to form the collar area.
  9. Change to cream and continue 3 to 4 rounds even.
  10. Decrease gradually to close the base.

Stuff the bird firmly so it sits upright. The body should be pear-shaped, widest through the head and upper body, with a softer, narrower cream lower section.

Bird Wings

Make two tiny flat oval wings in taupe brown. Sew them to the sides so they rest low and slightly outward. They should be visible beneath the hat brim and above the cream lower body.

Bird Bow and Purse

Add a tiny pale yellow bow at the front neck. Make a miniature cream crossbody purse with mint details, matching the bunny’s larger bag. The strap should run diagonally across the bird’s front.

Bird Hat

Make a tiny mint bucket hat using the same construction as the bunny hat, scaled down. Add a tiny cream floral band if desired. The hat should sit low and finish the coordinated outfit.

Shaping and Styling Notes

Keep the bunny very symmetrical. The charm of the finished piece comes from balanced spacing, gentle pastel contrast, and refined accessory placement. The hat brim should not flare too wide. The skirt should not be stiff. The face must remain calm and simple, with the eyes as the strongest feature.

The bird should feel like a little side companion, not an oversized second doll. Make its accessories tiny and tidy. Every decorative flower should stay soft, rounded, and slightly dimensional.

Final Assembly and Facial Detailing

Pin the head, ears, arms, skirt, purse, and hat before sewing permanently. Check that both eyes are level and that the nose sits centered between them. Add only a very small embroidered mouth line. Light blush under the eyes can be applied sparingly for a gentle, warm expression.

Steam-block flat accessories very lightly if needed, but do not flatten the amigurumi body pieces. Once everything is attached, smooth the stuffing by hand and adjust the ear drape so both sides fall naturally.

Care Notes

  • Display indoors and away from prolonged direct sunlight.
  • Handle small accessories gently, especially the bouquet and envelope.
  • If used as decor for a child’s room, secure all stitched pieces firmly.
  • Store in a dry place to keep pastel yarn shades clean and bright.

  • Ears even in length and placement
  • Hat low but not covering the eyes
  • Top bow centered
  • Skirt hem smooth and evenly flared
  • Flower border stitched all the way around the visible front

Detailed Cleaning and Preservation Guidelines

Spot clean with a lightly damp cloth and mild soap. Do not soak unless all embroidered and sewn pieces are extremely secure. If washing is necessary, place the items in a mesh bag and wash gently by hand in cool water.

Press out excess moisture with a towel and reshape while damp. Let everything air dry fully on a flat surface. Avoid tumble drying, harsh brushing, and high heat. For long-term storage, wrap in clean tissue and keep dust away from floral trims and pale yarn sections.
