- The ears are long, flat, and softly tapered. They hang below the jawline and extend to the upper skirt.
- The dress is made in separate sections for better shaping and cleaner finishing.
- Pearls are added after crocheting unless a step says to trap them during construction.

Insert safety eyes between Rounds 13 and 14 with about 9 stitches between them. The face in the image has a centered, calm expression, so keep the eyes level and not too wide apart. Start stuffing the head firmly as you go.
- Round 21: (7 sc, dec) around. (48)
- Round 22: (6 sc, dec) around. (42)
- Round 23: (5 sc, dec) around. (36)
- Round 24: (4 sc, dec) around. (30)
- Round 25: (3 sc, dec) around. (24)
- Round 26: (2 sc, dec) around. (18)
Do not fasten off yet if you prefer to crochet the neck directly. Add more stuffing. Shape the muzzle with your fingers so the lower front looks gently rounded, not pointed.
Facial Embroidery
- Using pale pink yarn, embroider a short horizontal nose centered between the eyes, about 2 rounds below them.
- Make a vertical line down 2 stitches.
- Add a tiny soft “Y” shape or a very small split mouth.
- Keep the embroidery delicate. The face in the image is minimal and refined.
Body
The body is shorter and narrower than the head. It has a straight upper torso and a softly widened lower section under the dress. This proportion keeps the finished bunny close to the photo.
- Round 1: 6 sc in MR. (6)
- Round 2: inc around. (12)
- Round 3: (sc, inc) around. (18)
- Round 4: (2 sc, inc) around. (24)
- Round 5: (3 sc, inc) around. (30)
- Rounds 6-8: sc around. (30)
- Round 9: (4 sc, inc) around. (36)
- Rounds 10-14: sc around. (36)
- Round 15: (4 sc, dec) around. (30)
- Rounds 16-18: sc around. (30)
Stuff the body firmly, especially the base. Leave a long tail for sewing. Sew the head to the body with the face centered. The neck should be stable and straight, with the head sitting slightly forward in a natural doll posture.
Legs
Make 2 in cream. The visible legs are slim cylinders with neat ankles. Most of the top section will be hidden under the skirt, but keep them even so the bunny stands balanced when seated or supported.
- Round 1: 6 sc in MR. (6)
- Round 2: inc around. (12)
- Round 3: (sc, inc) around. (18)
- Rounds 4-5: sc around. (18)
- Round 6: (4 sc, dec) around. (15)
- Rounds 7-18: sc around. (15)
Stuff lower 12 rounds firmly and upper rounds lightly. Flatten the opening and sew each leg to the lower body. Position them close together at the front so the feet angle slightly outward, matching the sweet stance in the image.
Arms
Make 2 in cream. These are short and rounded with a gentle taper. They should sit low enough to show the puff sleeve caps above them and the petal cuffs around the wrists.
- Round 1: 6 sc in MR. (6)
- Round 2: inc around. (12)
- Rounds 3-4: sc around. (12)
- Round 5: (2 sc, dec) around. (9)
- Rounds 6-14: sc around. (9)
Stuff the hand area and lower arm. Leave upper arm lightly stuffed or unstuffed for easier shaping. Flatten and sew to the body just below the neck area, aligned with the dress bodice.
Ears
Make 2 in blush pink. The ears are long, soft, and flat, with rounded ends and only light stuffing at the base if desired. They fall from beneath the hat and frame the face.
- Round 1: 6 sc in MR. (6)
- Round 2: inc around. (12)
- Round 3: (sc, inc) around. (18)
- Round 4: (2 sc, inc) around. (24)
- Rounds 5-7: sc around. (24)
- Round 8: (10 sc, dec, 10 sc, dec). (22)
- Round 9: sc around. (22)
- Round 10: (9 sc, dec, 9 sc, dec). (20)
- Rounds 11-15: sc around. (20)
- Round 16: (8 sc, dec) around. (18)
- Rounds 17-23: sc around. (18)
- Round 24: (7 sc, dec) around. (16)
- Rounds 25-31: sc around. (16)
- Round 32: (6 sc, dec) around. (14)
- Rounds 33-38: sc around. (14)

Flatten the opening and sew each ear high on the head, about 2 rounds behind the eye line. Angle them downward so they drop softly beside the face. The hat will cover the attachment points.
Dress Bodice
The top of the dress is fitted and neat. It looks like a cream blouse integrated into the skirt. Work from the top down around the body after assembly or make separately and sew in place.
- Chain 31 and join carefully without twisting, or begin directly around the torso with 30 stitches.
- Rounds 1-4: sc around. (30)
- Round 5: BLO sc around. (30)
- Rounds 6-7: sc around. (30)
- Round 8: (4 sc, inc) around. (36)
- Round 9: sc around. (36)
The bodice should fit snugly. If dressing the bunny after all sewing is done, check the fit before fastening off. Add a few tiny pearl beads in a clustered floral arrangement centered on the chest. Use 7 to 9 pearls. The photo shows a delicate, branching motif rather than a straight row.
Puff Sleeve Caps
Join cream yarn at one arm opening on the bodice.
- Round 1: 12 sc evenly around opening.
- Round 2: (sc, inc) around. (18)
- Round 3: sc around.
- Round 4: (2 sc, dec) around. (12)
Repeat for the second sleeve. The upper sleeves should appear softly rounded, not oversized.
Pearl-Sleeve Lower Cuffs
These decorative cuffs are one of the most recognizable parts of the design. They resemble layered flower petals around the wrist with tiny pearls along the joining band.
Make 4 petals for each arm in cream.
Petal
- Chain 6.
- Row 1: Starting in second chain from hook, sc, hdc, dc, hdc, sc.
- Work along the opposite side of the chain: sc, hdc, dc, hdc, sc, then sl st to tip.
Fasten off each petal, leaving a small tail. Stitch 4 petals together at the base in an overlapping ring. Make 2 rings total.
Cuff Base
- With blush yarn, chain enough to wrap the wrist area, about 10 to 12 stitches.
- Work 2 rows of sc.
- Join into a narrow band and sew the petal ring onto one side.
- Add 3 small pearls around each cuff band.
Sew one completed cuff around each wrist so the petals fan outward and slightly upward, echoing the flower details in the image.
Skirt
The skirt is worked in blush pink and has a lightly flared lace design. The motif in the image resembles open shell fans with a scalloped cream edge. Work into the lower bodice stitches.
- Join blush yarn to Round 9 of the bodice.
- Round 1: (2 dc in next st, ch 1, skip 1 st) around. Adjust so the round ends evenly.
- Round 2: sc in each dc and each ch-1 space around.
- Round 3: (dc, ch 1, dc) in one st, skip 2, sc in next, skip 2, repeat around.
- Round 4: sl st to next ch-1 space, 3 dc, ch 1, 3 dc in each ch-1 space around.
- Round 5: sc in each st and in each ch-1 space around.
- Round 6: (skip 1, 5 dc in next st, skip 1, sc in next) around or as evenly as needed for shell rhythm.
- Round 7: sc around to stabilize.
The lace pattern should form graceful arches, not a dense fabric. Steam lightly if needed so the motifs open. The finished skirt should sit just above the ankles.
Skirt Scallop Edge
With cream yarn, join at the hem.
- Round 1: (skip 1, 5 dc in next, skip 1, sl st in next) around.
This creates the rounded cream scallops seen at the bottom edge. Keep them soft and even. Do not make them too deep or the skirt will look heavy.

Shoes
Make 2. These are blush Mary Jane style shoes with cream trim, a strap across the instep, and a small flower on the outer side.
Sole
- With blush yarn, chain 7.
- Round 1: sc in second chain from hook and next 4, 3 sc in last chain, work on opposite side, sc 4, 2 sc in last. (14)
- Round 2: inc, 4 sc, 3 inc, 4 sc, 2 inc. (20)
- Round 3: sc around in BLO. (20)
Shoe Upper
- Round 4: sc around. (20)
- Round 5: 6 sc, 4 dec, 6 sc. (16)
- Round 6: sc around.
Fasten off. Make a cream strap by chaining 8 to 10, then work 1 row of sc. Sew across the instep. Add a tiny cream flower to the outer side of each shoe.
Tiny Shoe Flower
- Round 1: 5 sc in MR.
- Round 2: (ch 2, 2 dc, ch 2, sl st in same st) in each stitch around for 5 petals.
Sew one flower to each outer shoe side. A tiny pearl can be added at the center if desired.
Hat
The hat is a soft cloche in blush pink with a rounded crown and a gently flared brim. It sits low on the forehead and frames the eyes. The brim dips enough to cast a delicate shadow over the face.
- Round 1: 6 sc in MR. (6)
- Round 2: inc around. (12)
- Round 3: (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)
- Rounds 9-15: sc around. (48)
- Round 16: BLO (7 sc, inc) around. (54)
- Round 17: sc around. (54)
- Round 18: (8 sc, inc) around. (60)
- Round 19: sc around. (60)
- Round 20: (9 sc, inc) around. (66)
- Round 21: sl st loosely around or sc around very lightly.
Try the hat on the bunny. The brim should rest just above the eyes and over the base of the ears. Add more rounds if your tension is tighter.
Magnolia Hat Flowers
Make 3 larger flowers and 1 or 2 smaller fillers in cream with blush centers. The flowers are layered and soft, sitting on the left side of the hat in a clustered arrangement.
Flower Center
- With blush yarn, 6 sc in MR.
- Join with sl st.
Petal Round
- Change to cream.
- In each stitch work: sl st, ch 2, 3 dc, ch 2, sl st.
This gives 6 petals. For fuller flowers, make a second layer behind the first.
Second Layer
- Join cream yarn behind any petal.
- Work ch 3 behind each petal around.
- Into each ch-3 loop work: sl st, ch 2, 4 dc, ch 2, sl st.
Arrange the flowers so one sits highest, one slightly lower, and one near the brim edge. Add a tiny leaf or two in muted green if desired, though the image shows the flowers as the main visual focus.

Shell Purse
This small cream purse resembles a seashell with radiating ridges and a pearl handle. Work 2 shell panels and join them together.
Front and Back Panels
- Chain 13.
- Row 1: sc in second chain from hook and across. (12)
- Row 2: ch 1, turn, inc, 10 sc, inc. (14)
- Row 3: ch 1, turn, inc, 12 sc, inc. (16)
- Row 4: ch 1, turn, inc, 14 sc, inc. (18)
- Rows 5-8: ch 1, turn, sc across.
Now create shell ridges by surface stitching vertical lines from the lower edge to the upper edge. Make one center ridge and two curved ridges on each side. Light stuffing may be added between the panels.
Place both panels together and sc around the sides and bottom, leaving the top open. Add a pearl bead handle by stringing beads on strong thread and sewing securely to both top corners.
Lace-Style Hankie
The piece in the image looks like a small handkerchief with a lace border. To keep the set visually consistent, this version uses crochet thread and a delicate square edging.
- With cream thread, chain 21.
- Row 1: sc in second chain from hook and across. (20)
- Rows 2-16: ch 1, turn, sc across.
Lace Border
- Round 1: work sc evenly around all four sides, with 3 sc in each corner.
- Round 2: (ch 3, skip 1, sc in next) around, placing extra repeats at corners as needed.
- Round 3: in each ch-3 space work sc, ch 3, sc.
Steam gently and fold once like the piece shown in the photo. If you want a more fabric-like drape, use finer thread and a smaller hook.
Loose Magnolia Flower Accent
Make 1 extra flower to place at the base of the bunny or use as an optional removable embellishment.
- Work the same layered magnolia flower as for the hat.
- Make the outer petals slightly larger by using 5 dc in each back-loop petal instead of 4.
Shape the petals by pinching them lightly at the base. The flower in the image is full but still soft, with rounded petals rather than sharp points.
Swan Companion
The tiny swan wears a blush skirt and a matching tiny hat with a flower. It has a curved cream neck, round black eye, small peach beak, and raised cream wings with spiral shell-like shaping. This little side piece adds the storybook quality seen in the photo.
Swan Base and Skirt
- With blush yarn, Round 1: 6 sc in MR. (6)
- Round 2: inc around. (12)
- Round 3: (sc, inc) around. (18)
- Round 4: (2 sc, inc) around. (24)
- Rounds 5-6: sc around. (24)
This forms the hidden base under the swan. For the visible skirt edge, join a second round in the front loops.
- Skirt Round: (skip 1, 5 dc in next, skip 1, sl st in next) around in blush.
Swan Body and Neck
- With cream yarn, Round 1: 6 sc in MR. (6)
- Round 2: inc around. (12)
- Round 3: (sc, inc) around. (18)
- Rounds 4-5: sc around. (18)
- Round 6: (4 sc, dec) around. (15)
- Round 7: sc around. (15)
- Round 8: (3 sc, dec) around. (12)
- Rounds 9-16: sc around. (12)
- Round 17: (2 sc, dec) around. (9)
- Rounds 18-28: sc around. (9)
Stuff the body firmly and the neck lightly. Bend the neck forward in a gentle curve while stuffing. Sew the body onto the blush base so the swan sits upright.
Beak
- With peach yarn, 4 sc in MR.
- Round 2: sc around.
Flatten slightly and sew to the front of the head. Add one black eye on the visible side or embroider both if preferred.
📌Thank you for reading the article
Wings
Make 2 in cream.
- Chain 7.
- Work around the chain: sc, hdc, dc, 2 dc, dc, hdc, sc on the opposite side.
- For the shell curl, continue with a small spiral or add a raised ridge using surface slip stitches.
Sew one wing to each side of the swan body, angling them slightly upward. The visible wing in the photo has a curled, shell-like relief, so shape it with a pinch and a few extra stitches if needed.
Tiny Swan Hat
- With blush yarn, 6 sc in MR.
- Round 2: inc around. (12)
- Round 3: (sc, inc) around. (18)
- Rounds 4-5: sc around. (18)
- Round 6: BLO (2 sc, inc) around. (24)
- Round 7: sc around.
Make one tiny flower using the small shoe flower method and sew it to the side of the hat. Stitch the hat onto the swan head at a gentle angle.
Assembly
- Sew the head to the body securely.
- Sew the legs evenly to the lower body.
- Sew the arms just below the upper bodice line.
- Sew the ears high on the head and angle them downward.
- Dress the bunny with the bodice and skirt if made separately.
- Add the sleeve cuffs at the wrists.
- Attach the shoes to the feet or leave them removable if you prefer.
- Place the hat on the head and tack it down with a few hidden stitches.
- Sew the flower cluster onto the left side of the hat.
- Finish the purse, hankie, loose flower, and swan companion.
Styling Notes for an Accurate Look
- Keep the palette very soft. Avoid strong pink.
- The bunny should look refined and calm rather than playful or oversized.
- The pearls should be used sparingly but intentionally.
- The skirt lace must stay open enough to show the fan pattern.
- The hat brim should sit low and rounded, not flat like a sunhat.
- The ear length matters. Short ears will change the look too much.
- The swan should be small enough to feel like a companion, not a second main character.
Final Assembly and Facial Detailing
Check that the head is centered and slightly tilted forward. Re-shape the cheeks with your fingers before closing all seams. Embroider the nose in a soft pink that nearly blends into the face. The expression should remain minimal, gentle, and balanced with the eye placement.
Once the hat is attached, pull the ears into the same soft downward line seen in the image. Adjust the sleeve petals and shoe flowers so they face outward. Add the chest pearls last, using a scattered floral arrangement instead of a rigid pattern.
Care Notes
Display pieces with beads and delicate trims are best kept out of rough play. Store away from moisture and direct sunlight to preserve the pale colors. If the bunny is handled often, lift it from the body instead of the hat, sleeves, or flower accents.
Quick Checklist Before You Finish
- Eyes placed level and centered
- Nose embroidered softly in pale pink
- Ears long and evenly attached
- Hat brim curved and low on the forehead
- Chest pearls stitched securely
- Skirt lace opened and balanced
- Shoe straps and side flowers matched
- Swan hat and flower attached firmly
- Purse handle secured tightly
Detailed Cleaning and Preservation Guidelines
Spot clean only with a barely damp cloth and mild soap. Do not soak, wring, or machine wash the finished set. Pat dry with a towel and let every piece air dry flat, reshaping the hat brim, flowers, and skirt edge while damp.
If dust collects during display, use a soft makeup brush or a cool hair dryer on low power. Store the set in acid-free tissue inside a breathable box. Keep pearl embellishments away from strong friction so the finish stays smooth and bright over time.
