This elegant amigurumi set blends a soft bunny doll, a matching beret, a textured cardigan, a flared skirt, sweet shoes, a petite handbag, a lace-edged cloth, and a tiny companion into one collectible design. If you love searching for handmade bunny doll, crochet rabbit plush, or heirloom nursery gift ideas, this design creates that same charming boutique feel in yarn.
The finished set has a polished, giftable look with calm patina-blue accents and warm neutral tones. It suits makers who enjoy detailed doll clothes, amigurumi fashion, and display pieces that look ready for an artisan toy shop, spring décor shelf, or handmade baby shower present.
Please note: I strive for accuracy in every pattern, but occasional errors can happen. Thank you for understanding and for enjoying my designs.
Materials
- Main bunny and small companion body color: light oatmeal, beige, or soft flax cotton yarn.
- Patina-blue color: muted blue-green yarn for beret, cardigan, handbag, and small companion outfit.
- Skirt color: warm cream or ivory yarn.
- Shoe colors: cream and medium brown yarn.
- Small companion body: pale gray yarn.
- Flower centers: pale beige or dusty cream yarn.
- Companion oval accessory: very pale shell pink, cream, or blush.
- 2.0 mm to 2.5 mm crochet hook for the main pieces.
- 1.75 mm to 2.0 mm crochet hook for tiny details if desired.
- Black safety eyes for the large bunny.
- Small black beads or embroidered French-knot style eyes for the companion.
- Polyester fiberfill stuffing.
- Tapestry needle.
- Stitch markers.
- Straight pins for assembly.
- Optional thin plastic or cardboard insert for the handbag base.
- Optional lightweight fabric stiffener or diluted white glue for the hat and bag if you want extra shape.
Finished Size
The large bunny is designed to stand approximately 11 to 13 inches tall from foot to top of head, not including the extra lift of the beret. The ears fall low along the sides of the head and extend to about the upper body.
The small companion is approximately 4 to 5 inches tall. The handbag is sized to sit beside the bunny and visually reaches about the height of one shoe. The lace-edged cloth is a small folded accent piece rather than a full blanket.
Yarn and Tension Notes
Use a firm amigurumi tension so the stuffing does not show. Most body pieces are worked in continuous spirals unless a row ending is clearly stated. The clothing in this design looks slightly softer than the body, so you may use the same hook with a gentler hand or go up by 0.25 mm for garments.
The stitches in the image appear even, compact, and smooth. The body fabric should look dense and rounded. The cardigan and beret should keep shape without collapsing, while the skirt should drape lightly but still hold a bell outline.

Color Planning for Accuracy
Keep the large bunny body, head, ears, hands, and legs in warm beige. The cardigan and beret are both patina-blue, and the cardigan includes rounded lower fronts and one floral applique placed high on the bunny’s right chest.
The skirt is cream with soft horizontal rounds and a decorative lace border at the hem. The shoes are cream on top and brown around the lower section and soles, with a small round pom detail placed toward the outer side of each shoe strap area.
The small companion uses pale gray for the body, patina-blue for the tiny beret and cardigan, cream for the skirt, and a pale oval accessory held in front. Keep the look gentle and coordinated rather than bright.
Large Bunny
Head
The head is a near-perfect sphere with a very softly flattened lower front where the muzzle embroidery sits. The eyes are placed wide apart and slightly above the horizontal center. The nose and mouth are embroidered in dark brown or taupe, not black, for a softer expression.

Embroider the nose centered about 3 to 4 rounds below the eyes. Make a small inverted triangle or softly rounded Y-shaped nose. Extend a straight line downward, then add two short angled mouth lines for the calm expression visible in the image.
Ears
The ears are long, flat, softly stuffed only at the top if desired, and attached low enough to fall beside the face. They are not upright. They hang straight with a natural inward curve. Make 2 in beige.

- Rounds 17-24: sc around. (18)
- Flatten and work 9 sc through both layers, or sew closed with a slightly curved finish.
Do not overstuff. A completely soft ear will drape more like the image. Attach each ear just behind the eye line and slightly lower than the crown, leaving enough loose fall so both ears frame the face.
Body
The body is shorter than the head and slightly pear-shaped, but mostly hidden under the cardigan and skirt. Keep it compact so the doll remains balanced. The neck should be short and sturdy.
- Round 1: 6 sc in MR. (6)
- Round 2: inc around. (12)

- Rounds 7-14: sc around. (10)
- Lightly stuff the lower half only.
- Flatten top and close with 5 sc through both layers.
Legs
The legs are straight and sturdy, mostly hidden by the skirt. They should be thick enough to support the shoes and balance the doll. Make 2 in beige.
- Round 1: 6 sc in MR. (6)
- Round 2: inc around. (12)
- Round 3: 1 sc, inc around. (18)

Joining the Large Bunny Base
Sew the head to the body so the head sits centered and upright. Add extra stuffing into the neck area if needed before closing. Sew the arms to the upper body slightly below the neck join. Sew the legs to the lower body so the bunny can sit or stand supported by the skirt and shoes.
The feet in the image angle very slightly outward. When attaching the legs, turn the toes a little away from center. This tiny adjustment helps the finished doll resemble the original styling more closely.
Cardigan
Main Cardigan Shape
The cardigan is a short, cropped, patina-blue piece with textured horizontal rows, rounded front edges, long sleeves, and a gentle opening at the center front. It is not a tight fitted sweater. It sits slightly away from the body for a soft jacket look.
You can make the body of the cardigan as one flat piece from the neckline down and then add sleeves, or work separate fronts and back. The image shows clean structure and even texture, so a flat construction is beginner-friendly and accurate.
- Foundation: ch enough to fit around the upper body with front opening included. For the stated size, begin with about 32 to 36 chains.
- Row 1: sc across.
- Rows 2-4: sc across, shaping armholes by placing decreases near both side seams if needed.
- Split for fronts and back, leaving a clear center opening.
- Work the left front for several rows, decreasing 1 stitch every other row at the lower front edge to create the rounded hem.
- Work the right front to match.
- Work the back straight to the same length.
- Join shoulders with slip stitch or sewing.
To keep the cardigan proportional, the lower front corners should end slightly above the fullest part of the skirt. The front opening must remain visible so the cream dress shows beneath it, exactly like the image.
Sleeves
The sleeves are long, softly puffed, and rounded. They are not sharply gathered, but they are fuller than plain fitted sleeves. This fullness gives the design its “puffs” character.
- Join patina-blue yarn around one armhole.
- Round 1: sc evenly around.
- Rounds 2-6: sc around, increasing lightly in the first two rounds if needed for a puffed upper sleeve.
- Rounds 7-12: sc around, decreasing gradually toward the wrist.
- Round 13: sl st or sc around very neatly for a clean cuff edge.
Make the second sleeve the same. The sleeve should end slightly above the hand so the beige hand remains visible below the cuff.
Cardigan Front Edging and Decorative Buttons
Add a neat edging around the neckline, fronts, and hem with one round or row of single crochet. Sew or embroider three small rounded button details down the upper center front. In the image they read as textured little bumps rather than large statement buttons.
If preferred, create each button as a tiny knot, a French-knot style wrap with yarn, or a mini crochet bobble stitched in place. Keep them subtle and tone-on-tone in the same patina-blue shade.
Large Flower Applique for Cardigan
The cardigan has one layered flower applique on the bunny’s right chest. It is medium-sized, soft, and dimensional. The flower has a pale center and matching blue petals. Make 1.
- Round 1: With pale center color, 6 sc in MR, join.
- Round 2: Change to patina-blue. In each stitch work: sl st, ch 2, 2 dc, ch 2, sl st.
- This creates 6 petals.
- Optional Round 3: Work behind petals into Round 1 posts and add a second, slightly larger petal layer using hdc and dc combinations.
Sew the flower securely to the cardigan chest after the cardigan is on the bunny so the placement looks naturally balanced from the front view.
Skirt
The cream skirt is a softly flared circular piece with visible round-by-round texture and a delicate lace hem. It sits under the cardigan and starts at the waist. The skirt is not heavily gathered; instead, it widens steadily into a bell shape.
- Round 1: Create a waist opening that fits the body snugly. Begin with a chain joined into a ring or work around the body directly.
- Round 2: sc around evenly.
- Round 3: work 1 sc in each stitch.
- Round 4: increase every 6th stitch.
- Round 5: sc around.
- Round 6: increase every 7th stitch.
- Round 7: sc around.
- Round 8: increase every 8th stitch.
- Round 9: sc around.
- Round 10: increase every 9th stitch.
- Rounds 11-14: continue alternating plain rounds and light increase rounds until the skirt reaches mid-calf on the bunny.
📌Thank you for reading the article
The skirt in the image has distinct horizontal rows, so using mostly single crochet rounds works very well. If you want a touch more softness, alternate single crochet and half double crochet rounds, but keep the overall surface very even.
Lace Hem
The hem is one of the key finishing details. It looks like a refined scalloped lace, not a dramatic ruffle. Keep it small and elegant.
- Round 1 lace base: *ch 3, skip 1 st, sc in next st* around.
- Round 2 lace finish: into each ch-3 space work *sc, hdc, 3 dc, hdc, sc*.
- If you want a finer edge, replace the 3 dc with 2 dc and a picot.
Lightly block the hem so each scallop opens. The lace should drape downward softly, just like the photograph, rather than standing stiffly away from the skirt.
Shoes
The shoes are two-tone Mary Jane style crochet shoes with cream uppers, brown lowers, and a tiny pom detail at the side. They are slightly chunky and rounded at the toe. Make 2.
Sole
- With brown, ch 7 or a length that matches the width of the bunny foot.
- Round 1: work around the chain oval style, increasing at both ends.
- Rounds 2-3: sc around to build a shallow sole wall.
Upper
- Change to cream.
- Work partial rounds over the front and sides to shape the toe opening.
- Decrease gently near the front center so the toe becomes rounded.
- Create a strap look by working a narrow bridge over the upper opening if desired.
Pom Detail
Make 2 tiny poms or crochet knots in cream or beige. Sew one near the outer side of each shoe where a decorative button or pom would sit. This detail is small but very visible in the image and should not be skipped.
Sew or tack each shoe firmly to the foot so it keeps its position. A tiny cardboard insert in the sole can help with stability if the doll is for display.
Beret
The beret is oversized, soft, and slants to one side. It sits low across the forehead and leans toward the bunny’s left side. The crown is broad and flat, with a narrow band that grips the head gently.
- Round 1: 6 sc in MR. (6)
- Round 2: inc around. (12)
- Round 3: 1 sc, inc around. (18)
- Round 4: 2 sc, inc around. (24)
- Round 5: 3 sc, inc around. (30)
- Round 6: 4 sc, inc around. (36)
- Round 7: 5 sc, inc around. (42)
- Round 8: 6 sc, inc around. (48)
- Round 9: 7 sc, inc around. (54)
- Rounds 10-12: sc around. (54)
- Round 13: 7 sc, dec around. (48)
- Round 14: 6 sc, dec around. (42)
- Round 15: 5 sc, dec around. (36)
- Round 16: BLO sc around. (36)
- Round 17: 4 sc, dec around. (30)
- Round 18: sc around. (30)
- Round 19: 3 sc, dec around. (24)
- Round 20: sc around. (24)
Try the beret on the head. It should sit snugly but not tightly. Lightly steam or shape it by hand so the crown relaxes and falls to one side. Sew it in place with a few hidden stitches after adding the flowers.
Beret Flowers
The beret has two matching layered flowers placed side by side near the front band. They are slightly smaller than the chest flower. Make 2.
- Round 1: 6 sc in MR with pale center color. Join.
- Round 2: change to patina-blue and make 6 petals using *sl st, ch 2, 2 dc, ch 2, sl st* in each stitch.
- Optional Round 3: add a second back layer of petals for more depth.
📌Thank you for reading the article
Sew the two flowers near the right-front area of the beret from the viewer’s perspective, close enough to read as a pair but not overlapping too heavily.
Handbag
The handbag is a soft patina-blue purse with a rounded shell-like body, a short handle, and vertical ridging created by stitch placement. It looks lightly structured and roomy, not flat.
Bag Body
- With patina-blue, ch a small oval or begin with a narrow base in rows.
- Work around the base in sc for 2 rounds.
- From the next round onward, use BLO or front-post style shaping to encourage subtle vertical ribbing.
- Increase evenly over the next few rounds so the body becomes rounded and full.
- Then work plain rounds without increases to build height.
- Decrease lightly near the top opening so the bag narrows inward.
The bag in the image has a very distinct gathered-shell feel. To imitate that, place one increase line every few stitches during the lower rounds and then work straight upward so the fabric forms soft vertical channels.
Handle
- Attach yarn at one top side of the bag.
- Chain a short arch handle.
- Join to the other side and cover the chain with sc or hdc.
Make the handle sturdy enough to stand. If you like, lightly stiffen the handle and insert a flexible cord inside before closing. Place the finished bag beside the bunny, matching the angle shown in the image.
Lace-Edged Cloth
Beside the handbag sits a small folded cream cloth with a patina-blue outer edge. It reads like a petite handkerchief, mini shawl, or decorative mat. This is a simple but important styling piece for the full set.
- With cream, chain to the desired width.
- Work a small rectangle in rows of sc or hdc until it reaches a proportion suitable for folding.
- Border Round: join patina-blue and sc evenly around.
- Final edge: add tiny shell scallops on at least one visible side using *skip 1, 5 dc in next st, skip 1, sl st*.
Fold the cloth once or twice so the cream center and blue edging are both visible. Set it under or beside the handbag.
Small Companion
The small companion is a tiny gray animal wearing a miniature version of the main outfit. It has a rounded head, tiny ears, a compact body, short arms, short legs, a patina-blue beret, a little cardigan, a cream skirt, and a pale oval accessory held in front.
Its face is simple, with bead-like black eyes and a tiny embroidered mouth. The body proportions are plump and toy-like. Keep the head a little larger than the body for the same adorable balance seen in the image.

Arms and Legs for Small Companion
Make short tube arms and short thicker legs in pale gray, following the same shaping logic as the large bunny but scaled down. Keep the pieces firmly sewn so the companion can sit securely.
Tiny Beret, Cardigan, and Skirt
Repeat the large bunny garments in miniature. The tiny beret should angle to one side. The cardigan should stop at the waist and remain open at the front. The cream skirt should flare gently with a small lace or shell edge.
Oval Accessory
The small companion holds a pale oval object with faint curved surface lines. Crochet a simple stuffed oval in blush, cream, or shell pink.
- Round 1: 6 sc in MR.
- Round 2: inc around. (12)
- Round 3: sc around.
- Round 4: 1 sc, dec around. (8)
- Stuff lightly and close.
Wrap a few curved embroidered lines across the surface to mimic the ridged shell-like look. Sew it lightly to the hands or front body so it appears held, not floating.
Placement and Styling Notes
- Attach the ears before sewing the beret permanently.
- Dress the bunny fully before final flower placement on the cardigan.
- Angle the beret low across the forehead.
- Let the cardigan remain slightly open so the cream skirt center is visible.
- Keep the skirt hem just above the shoes.
- Turn the shoes slightly outward.
- Place the handbag and folded cloth together on one side of the display.
- Place the small companion on the opposite side holding the oval accessory.
Detailed Order of Work
- Crochet the large bunny head, ears, body, arms, and legs.
- Assemble and embroider the face.
- Make and attach the shoes.
- Crochet the cream skirt and fit it to the body.
- Make the cardigan and add the front edging.
- Crochet the beret and its two flowers.
- Make the chest flower and sew it to the cardigan.
- Crochet the handbag and the lace-edged cloth.
- Make the small companion body and outfit.
- Make the tiny oval accessory.
- Dress and arrange everything for the final display look.
Shaping Tips for a Closer Match
Spend extra time on shaping. The head should be very smooth, with no lumpy stuffing. The cardigan sleeves should feel softly padded by their own volume, not by stuffing. The skirt should widen gradually from the waist and then finish with a delicate open hem.
The beret matters a lot to the final mood. If it sits too high, the doll loses the relaxed charm of the image. Pull it slightly forward and to the side, then secure with hidden stitches. The flower pair should rest close to the front band.
The handbag should not be flat. Stuff it lightly or place a removable insert inside while shaping. The small companion should echo the same styling as the large bunny so the display looks intentionally coordinated.
Final Assembly and Facial Detailing
Sew all parts with matching yarn and small stitches. Check the symmetry of the eyes, ears, and cardigan front before fixing them permanently. Embroider the large bunny’s nose and mouth in a soft brown shade, keeping the lines centered, neat, and calm.
For the small companion, use tiny black eyes and a minimal stitched mouth. Once dressed, adjust the berets, smooth the skirt hems, and position the accessories so the set looks balanced from the front.
Care Notes
Display pieces stay nicest when handled gently. Spot clean whenever possible. If the item is for décor, avoid prolonged direct sun to protect the soft patina-blue shade and keep the cream skirt from dulling over time.

Detailed Cleaning and Preservation Guidelines
Use cool water, mild soap, and very light pressure if washing is necessary. Do not twist or wring. Press gently in a towel to remove moisture, reshape by hand, and dry flat. Keep stuffed pieces away from high heat, and store with tissue support inside hats or bags if they need to hold form.
