Crochet Tutorial: Vineyard Purple Bunny – Free Crochet Pattern

This sweet amigurumi set is designed for makers who love heirloom-style toys, collectible crochet dolls, handmade nursery decor, and elegant bunny plush designs. The finished look feels boutique and giftable, with soft lavender shades, grape details, a crossbody purse, and beautifully coordinated accessories.

If you enjoy searching for an amigurumi bunny doll pattern, crochet rabbit outfit, handmade baby shower gift, or artisan plush toy ideas, this design brings all of those details together. The larger bunny and the tiny companion create a charming display piece that also works beautifully as a keepsake toy.

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

Pattern Overview

This pattern recreates the full crochet scene shown in the image: a standing bunny doll in a lavender outfit, matching hat, scalloped skirt, cream shoes, crossbody bag, grape embellishments, a mini companion figure, one extra grape cluster, and two small rolled scroll-style accessories.

The style is soft, round, and slightly vintage. The head is large and smooth, the body is narrow, the legs are slim and straight, and the outfit flares gently outward. The garments are shaped to sit neatly on the body rather than look bulky.

US terminology is used throughout. The pattern is written for intermediate beginners and beyond, but each section is broken down carefully so newer crocheters can follow along with patience and stitch markers.

Special Stitches

Bobble Stitch

For each grape bobble: yarn over, insert hook, pull up a loop, yarn over and pull through 2. Repeat that partial dc 4 times in the same stitch until 5 loops remain on hook. Yarn over and pull through all loops. Ch 1 to close if needed.

Scallop Edging

For the soft decorative hem, work (sl st in next st, hdc in next st, 3 dc in next st, hdc in next st, sl st in next st). This creates one small scallop.

Design Notes

  • The large bunny is made with separate legs, body, head, arms, ears, and clothing pieces.
  • The cardigan is worked separately and sewn to sit smoothly over the upper torso.
  • The skirt is attached at the waist and worked downward.
  • The hat has a soft rounded crown with long side flaps.
  • The mini companion is made as a simplified standing animal with a matching outfit.

Stuff lightly in narrow areas and more firmly in the head. The photographed look is not overstuffed. It has a gentle, elegant silhouette with slight shaping at the neck and a smooth, rounded face.

  14. Rnd 40-42: 12 sc. (12)

Stuff the body firmly at the hips and softly near the upper chest so the cardigan sits well. The neck should remain narrow and straight.

Continue in cream from neck, or sew separately if preferred. For the smoothest shape, crochet directly from the neck.

  1. Rnd 1: inc around. (24)
  2. Rnd 2: (3 sc, inc) x 6. (30)
  3. Rnd 3: (4 sc, inc) x 6. (36)

  7. Rnd 7-16: 54 sc each round. (54)

Insert the large eyes between Rnds 10 and 11 of the head, with about 10 visible stitches between them. In the photo, the eyes sit low and wide, giving a very soft and childlike expression.

Stuff the head firmly but do not stretch the stitches. Close and weave in the end.

Arms Make 2

Start with cream.

  1. Rnd 1: 6 sc in MR. (6)
  2. Rnd 2: (sc, inc) x 3. (9)
  3. Rnd 3-4: 9 sc. (9)
  4. Change to lavender at end of Rnd 4.
  5. Rnd 5-14: 9 sc. (9)
  6. Rnd 15: Flatten and crochet 4 sc through both sides to close.

Stuff only the lower hand area lightly. Leave the upper arm unstuffed so it lies flat against the cardigan. Sew the arms on either side of the upper body, slightly below the neck.

Ears Make 2

Use soft pink-lilac.

  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 5-9: 24 sc. (24)

  8. Rnd 17: (sc, dec) x 6. (12)
  9. Rnd 18-24: 12 sc. (12)

Flatten each ear without stuffing. Sew them high on the head but tucked slightly under the hat line so they fall softly down the sides, just like the photo.

Facial Embroidery

Using beige or soft brown yarn, embroider a tiny inverted triangle nose centered between the eyes and about 2 rounds lower. Add one short vertical stitch below it. With blush pink yarn or powder, tint the cheeks lightly under the eyes.

Shoes

The shoes are part boot, part Mary Jane, with a soft cream base and a narrow strap effect. Make 2.

Use cream.

  1. Rnd 1: Ch 7. Starting in 2nd ch from hook: 5 sc, 3 sc in last ch, working on opposite side: 4 sc, inc. (14)
  2. Rnd 2: inc, 4 sc, 3 inc, 4 sc, 2 inc. (20)
  3. Rnd 3: BLO 20 sc. (20)
  4. Rnd 4: 20 sc. (20)
  5. Rnd 5: 6 sc, dec x 4, 6 sc. (16)
  6. Rnd 6: 5 sc, dec x 3, 5 sc. (13)
  7. Rnd 7: 13 sc.

Fasten off and sew or tack the shoes onto the feet, placing them so the toes point slightly outward. Embroider a tiny strap line across the upper front if you want the same delicate effect shown in the image.

Skirt Attached at Waist

Join lavender to the front loops left from Body Rnd 34.

  1. Rnd 1: In FLO around, work (sc, inc) around. (36)
  2. Rnd 2: 36 sc. (36)
  3. Rnd 3: (5 sc, inc) x 6. (42)
  4. Rnd 4: 42 sc. (42)
  5. Rnd 5: (6 sc, inc) x 6. (48)
  6. Rnd 6: 48 sc. (48)
  7. Rnd 7: (7 sc, inc) x 6. (54)
  8. Rnd 8-10: 54 sc. (54)

Change to cream.

  1. Rnd 11: 54 sc in cream. (54)
  2. Rnd 12: 54 sc. (54)

Change to lilac.

  1. Rnd 13: Work scallop edging around using the small scallop repeat. Adjust the last stitches as needed so the edging sits evenly.

The photographed skirt has gentle volume, not a dramatic bell shape. Steam lightly if needed so it falls in a soft diagonal drape rather than a stiff circle.

With cream, work a narrow trim around the neckline. Then with lilac, add tiny decorative stitches down the center front to imitate the pretty vertical detail visible in the image. You may add 2 to 3 tiny bobble-like knots in pale pink for the look of little buttons.

Grape Appliqués for Cardigan

Make 2 large grape clusters for the big bunny.

Each Grape Cluster

  • Center the nose carefully so the face stays soft and balanced.
  • Add a gentle blush under the eyes and on the mini companion muzzle area.
  • Sew the bag after the cardigan so the strap lies naturally across the front.

Care Notes

  • Spot clean whenever possible.
  • If washing is needed, hand wash gently in cool water.
  • Do not twist or wring the doll.
  • Reshape the hat, ears, skirt, and bag while damp.
  • Lay flat to dry away from direct sunlight.

Quick Checklist Before You Finish

  • Ears matched and aligned
  • Skirt length balanced around the body
