Calendula Market Smock Bunny – Crochet

This sweet market bunny is designed for makers who love heirloom-style amigurumi and premium cotton yarn with a clean stitch definition. If you enjoy shopping for ergonomic crochet hooks, safety eyes, and stuffing that keeps its shape, this project is a satisfying, giftable make with many charming accessories.

The set includes a floppy-eared bunny in a calendula smock dress, a wide-brim hat, tiny carrots, a “flower market” tote, and a mini pig friend. It’s perfect if you like buying amigurumi supplies, stitch markers, and yarn in warm neutrals and sunny shades for boutique-looking results.

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

Project Overview

This pattern creates the complete scene shown: a large bunny doll with a white top, a layered scallop skirt, flower appliqués, a pocket, yellow shoes, and a cream floppy hat. You will also crochet a small tote with embroidered text, several mini carrots, and a tiny pig companion wearing a hat and simple outfit.

Work in continuous rounds unless stated otherwise. Use a stitch marker to track the first stitch of each round. Stuff firmly as you go, shaping with your fingers to keep the silhouette neat and smooth.

Finished Size

• Large bunny: about 11–13 in (28–33 cm) tall when made with DK/light worsted cotton and a 2.5–3.0 mm hook
• Hat: sized to sit low and slightly tilted, covering one ear edge like the photo
• Mini pig: about 4–5 in (10–13 cm) tall
• Mini carrots: about 1.5–2 in (4–5 cm)
• Tote: about 3–3.5 in (7.5–9 cm) wide

Materials

• Yarn (cotton recommended for crisp texture):
  • Cream/Beige (main bunny, skirt, hat, bag, pig base)
  • White (bunny top and pig shirt)
  • Yellow (shoe, skirt scallops, small flower center details)
  • Orange (skirt scallops and calendula flowers)
  • Green (leaves and carrot tops)
  • Pink (pig snout, inner ear tint, blush accents optional)
  • Brown/Tan (pig pants and hat band shading)
  • Black (small embroidery if you prefer stitched eyes, optional)
• Crochet hook: 2.5 mm (tight fabric for amigurumi); adjust to match your tension
• Safety eyes: 10–12 mm for bunny, 6–8 mm for pig (or embroider)
• Fiberfill stuffing
• Yarn needle, scissors, stitch markers
• Optional: light pink chalk pastel for cheeks, or pink yarn for blush stitches
• Optional: small felt scraps or fabric paint for tiny “price” labels (or crochet them)

Stitch Abbreviations (US Terms)

• ch = chain
• st = stitch
• sl st = slip stitch
• sc = single crochet
• inc = increase (2 sc in same st)
• dec = decrease (invisible decrease recommended)
• hdc = half double crochet
• dc = double crochet
• tr = treble crochet
• blo = back loop only
• flo = front loop only
• ( ) = repeat instructions within parentheses
• [ ] = stitch count at end of round/row

Gauge and Fabric Notes

Exact gauge is not critical, but you must create a dense, hole-free fabric so stuffing does not show. If your stitches look loose, switch to a smaller hook. Cotton yarn helps the hat brim and bag keep a structured look like the photo.

Color Placement Notes

The photo shows a cream bunny with a white top, a cream skirt with a layered scallop trim in yellow and orange, and calendula flower appliqués in orange with green leaves. The shoes are a soft yellow. The hat is cream with one orange flower and two green leaves.

Clothing: White Top and Calendula Smock Dress

White Top (Separate Piece, White)

The top is a snug shirt with short sleeves, worn under the cream dress. Make it as a tube with sleeve openings, then add the collar and button details shown.

Work from the bottom up. This piece is designed to fit tightly over the body, so try it on as you go.

Top Body (White)

1. Ch 42, join to form a ring, being careful not to twist.
2. R1: sc in each ch around [42]
3. R2–R6: sc around [42]

Collar Half (Make 2, White)

1. Ch 10.
2. Row 1: sc in 2nd ch from hook and across [9]
3. Row 2: ch 1, turn, sc 2, hdc 2, dc 3, hdc 1, sc 1 [9]
4. Row 3: ch 1, turn, (sc, inc) in first 2 sts, sc 5, (inc, sc) in last 2 sts [11]

Edge scallop: work around the outer curve only.

1. Round edge: ch 1, work (sl st, sc, hdc) into one st, skip 1, repeat along the curved edge to create soft bumps.
2. Fasten off leaving a tail for sewing.

Sew the two halves to the front neckline so they meet at the center, leaving a small gap like the photo. Add two tiny “button dots” with yellow yarn.

Collar Button Dots (Yellow)

• With yellow yarn, make 2–3 tiny French-knot style stitches centered at the collar front.
• Keep them small and slightly raised.

Cream Smock Dress (Cream)

The dress is a cream overdress with a fitted bodice and a skirt. The skirt has a base cream section with a layered scallop hem in yellow and orange, matching the photo’s bright trim.

Dress Bodice (Cream)

3. R13: sc around [72]

Scallop Layer 1 (Yellow, worked into R11 flo)

This creates the first bright scallop band. The photo shows a prominent yellow scallop edge layered over orange, so make the yellow scallops slightly larger.

Attach yellow yarn to any flo stitch of R11.

1. Work (sl st in 1 flo st, skip 1, 6 dc in next flo st, skip 1) around.
2. Adjust if needed: If your stitch count doesn’t divide evenly, replace one scallop with 5 dc so the band lies flat.
3. Fasten off, weave in ends.

Scallop Layer 2 (Orange, worked into R13 flo)

This second scallop band sits slightly lower, peeking out beneath the yellow layer like the photo. It should be visible and cheerful, not too ruffled.

First create a ridge: work R14 in blo, then use R14 flo for scallops.

1. With cream, R14: sc around in blo [72]
2. With cream, R15: sc around [72]

Attach orange yarn to any flo stitch of R14.

1. Work (sl st in 1 flo st, skip 1, 5 dc in next flo st, skip 1) around.

2. At each bottom corner, work 3 sc in the corner stitch to curve it.
3. Fasten off leaving a long tail for sewing.

Calendula Flower Appliqués (Orange + Yellow + Green)

You will make two flowers: one for the dress pocket and one for the hat. Each flower is a layered calendula-style bloom with a textured center and rounded petals.

Flower Center (Yellow)

1. R1: 6 sc in magic ring [6]
2. R2: inc around [12]
3. R3: sc around [12]
4. Fasten off, leave tail for sewing onto petals.

Petal Layer (Orange)

Work into a magic ring. Each petal should be plump and rounded.

Placement and Sewing Guide

Take your time here. Neat placement is what makes the set look exactly like the photo. Pin pieces first, then sew using small, even stitches.

Attach Head to Body

• Center the head on the body opening.
• Sew through the head’s last round and the body’s top round using a whip stitch.
• As you close, add extra stuffing at the neck to prevent wobbling.

Attach Ears

• Sew ears to the sides of the head, slightly lower than the top curve.
• Angle them so they drape down naturally.
• One ear can be positioned to sit partly under the hat brim, like the photo.

Attach Arms and Legs

• Sew legs to the bottom of the body, spaced so the bunny stands balanced.
• Sew arms at the upper sides of the body, slightly forward for a cuddly pose.
• Dress and sleeves will cover seams, so focus on symmetry and stability.

Dress and Top Fit

• Slide the white top onto the bunny first.
• Sew the collar to the neckline and add the small yellow button dots.
• Place the cream dress over the top, aligning armholes.
• Stitch the dress at a few points around the shoulders so it stays in place.

Pocket and Flower Placement

• Sew the pocket onto the skirt front-right area (bunny’s right).
• Attach the pocket flower so it sits partly on the pocket face.
• Keep the leaves angled outward, matching the photo’s leafy peek.

Shoes

• Slide shoes onto the legs or sew them on permanently.
• If sewing, stitch around the ankle opening to the leg securely.
• Sew the strap across the top and add a tiny side bump detail.

Hat Styling

• Place the hat low so the brim frames the face.
• Tilt it slightly and let one ear be covered along the brim edge.
• Sew the flower to the hat’s side and angle the leaves gently upward.

Tote and Carrots

• Attach 2–3 mini carrots inside the tote so they peek out.
• Scatter remaining carrots around for display, like the photo.
• If adding “Price” tags, stitch them lightly near a carrot pile.

Mini Pig Assembly

• Sew the pig head to the body, centered.
• Sew ears to the top sides of the head.
• Sew arms to the upper body and legs to the bottom.
• Place the hat and tack it with a few stitches so it stays put.

Final Assembly and Facial Detailing

For the bunny, keep the embroidered nose and mouth very small and centered. Add soft blush to the cheeks with minimal color. For the pig, stitch tiny nostrils and a faint smile if desired. Make sure both faces look calm and sweet, with eyes level and evenly spaced.

Care Notes

• Spot clean with a damp cloth and mild soap.
• Let pieces air dry fully, reshaping the hat brim and skirt layers while damp.
• Avoid high heat to protect the stuffing and keep the cotton from shrinking.

Quick Checklist Before You Finish

• All seams are tight, with no stuffing showing.
• Eyes are secured and aligned.
• Collar sits flat, and dress armholes align cleanly.
• Scallop layers are even: yellow above orange, both visible.
• Pocket and flowers are attached firmly with leaves facing outward.
• Hat is tacked in place with a gentle tilt.
• Tote text reads clearly: flower market.

Detailed Cleaning and Preservation Guidelines

To preserve the shape, store the bunny upright or lying flat with the hat removed. If the brim curls, lightly mist with water and smooth it back into shape, then air dry. Keep accessories in a small pouch so carrots and tags don’t get lost, and avoid long sun exposure to reduce fading.
