About This Pattern
This pattern is written in US English and uses standard amigurumi construction.
The instructions are designed to recreate the bunny and all visible accessories shown in the image: the bunny doll, floral bucket hat, granny-square inspired dress, striped shoes, crossbody pouch, squirrel companion, tiny watering can, and yarn basket with yarn balls.
The shaping is intentionally detailed so the finished proportions stay close to the photo: a large rounded head, narrow neck, slim torso, long softly tapered arms, long flat hanging ears, short sturdy legs, and a slightly bell-shaped skirt.
The decorative motifs on the dress and hat are made with miniature joined motifs and embroidery so the overall look stays true to the image while still being practical to crochet.

Design Notes
- Work in continuous rounds unless noted otherwise.
- Mark the first stitch of each round.
- Stuff firmly but not hard.
- The bunny’s face is placed low on the head for a gentle, childlike expression.
- The ears are long, flat, and lightly stuffed only at the base.
- The dress is made separately and sewn to keep the floral motif layout neat.
- The hat is soft and slightly shallow, with a brim that tips down around the face.
Color Planning for the Floral Look
The image shows a cream base with repeated bright floral granny-style motifs. To reproduce that look, make many small motif centers in mixed colors and join them with cream.
Do not make every motif identical. The original look feels handcrafted and slightly varied, which is what gives the outfit its charm.
Use combinations like coral with sage center, blue with mustard center, plum with golden center, and rose with green center. Keep the outer joining round cream so the motifs blend into one dress.

Insert eyes between Rnds 58 and 59 with about 10 visible stitches between them. The face in the photo is wide-set and soft, so do not place the eyes too close together.

Do not stuff the ears except for a tiny pinch of stuffing at the base.
Flatten each ear and sew the opening closed with a few stitches, creating a gently folded shape. The ears should hang straight down from beneath the hat brim.
Muzzle and Nose Shaping
The bunny in the photo has a minimal face rather than a protruding muzzle. For that reason, do not crochet a separate muzzle piece.
Instead, embroider the nose directly on the head.
- Use dusty pink yarn.
- Place the nose between Rnds 60 and 61.
- Make a small horizontal triangle about 3 stitches wide.
- Add one short vertical stitch down from the center.
- Add a tiny split mouth with 1 short diagonal stitch to each side if desired.
Add faint blush to the cheeks under the eyes. Keep it subtle.

Mini Floral Motifs for Dress and Hat
You will need many small motifs to recreate the patchwork floral appearance.
For the dress, make:
- 24 full mini motifs for the skirt
- 8 half motifs or adjusted motifs for the bodice area
- 4 extra motifs for trimming and balance if needed
For the hat, make:
- 3 full mini motifs for the front band
- 2 flower appliqués for the right side
Mini Motif Pattern
Use a bright center color.
- Rnd 1: In MR, ch 1, 8 sc. Join with sl st. (8)
- Rnd 2: Change to petal color. In each st work (sl st, ch 2, 2 dc, ch 2, sl st). Repeat 8 times. Join. You now have 8 petals.
- Rnd 3: Change to cream. Work behind petals. (sc, ch 2, sc in next gap, ch 2) around to create 8 arches.
- Rnd 4: Into first arch work (sc, hdc, dc, ch 2, dc, hdc, sc), into next arch work sc, into next arch repeat shell, into next arch sc, repeat around for 4 corners. Join to square off the motif.
Fasten off. Block lightly.
You can simplify the motif count by making small flat squares with embroidered flower centers if you prefer a sturdier garment, but the visible look should remain floral and colorful on a cream lattice background.
Dress Construction
The dress in the image has a sleeveless fitted top, a wide floral skirt, a cream waistband tie, and a motif-covered surface. The neckline is modest and slightly rounded, with a soft V suggestion from the central panel arrangement.
Skirt Panel
Arrange 24 full motifs into 4 horizontal rows of 6 motifs each.
Join motifs using whip stitch or slip stitch through outer cream loops only so the floral centers remain prominent.
This joined rectangle should wrap around the bunny from waist to lower calf. Test the width around the doll before closing into a ring.
Once satisfied, join the short ends to create a tube.
Waist Edge
Using cream, attach yarn to the top edge of the motif tube.
- Rnd 1: Work 2 sc evenly across each motif top edge and 1 sc at each join. Aim for 72 sts total.
- Rnd 2: sc around. (72)
- Rnd 3: (sc 10, dec) repeat 6 times. (66)
- Rnd 4: sc around. (66)
- Rnd 5: (sc 9, dec) repeat 6 times. (60)
- Rnd 6: sc around. (60)

- Row 8: Ch 1, turn, sc across. (9)
Fasten off on one panel. For the second panel, do not fasten off.
Place the panels to the front and back of the skirt top edge. Sew or crochet them onto the waist opening so the bodice sits fitted to the torso.
Join shoulders with 3 stitches on each side, leaving a neckline opening.

Dress Side Joins
Sew the bodice side seams neatly to the skirt upper edge so the dress fits close to the bunny’s narrow body.
