Please note: I strive for accuracy in every pattern, but occasional errors can happen. Thank you for understanding and for enjoying my designs.
Overview
This pattern creates the complete display shown in the image:
- A standing bunny with long downward ears
- A rounded cap with a short front brim
- A cream Peter Pan collar
- A blue sleeveless button-front dress with eyelet hem
- Floral sleeve garlands worked separately and stitched on
- Mary Jane style shoes with tiny flower accents
- A small taupe backpack with flap and front pocket
- A tied snapdragon-style bouquet
- A small rectangular stitched cloth
- A seated bear wearing a matching outfit and cap
The visual proportions matter in this set. The bunny has a large round head, short neck, slim body, slightly weighted lower half, narrow legs, rounded arms, and very long ears that hang straight down from beneath the cap. The bear companion is much smaller and wider in relation to its height.
For the closest result, use smooth cotton or cotton-blend yarn with clear stitch definition. Avoid fuzzy yarn. The image shows neat, tight stitches with minimal gaps. Stuff firmly but not harshly. Most pieces benefit from gradual shaping rather than abrupt increases so the finished forms stay soft and storybook-like.

Gauge and Size Notes
Exact gauge is less important than proportion. The bunny should be noticeably taller than the backpack and about three times the seated height of the small bear. The dress should flare gently, not dramatically. The hat should sit low enough to frame the eyes while allowing the ears to fall from under the sides.
If your stitches are loose, reduce hook size. Loose stitches will flatten the face, weaken the flower details, and make the dress hang poorly. Tight, even stitches are especially important for the cap brim, shoe straps, miniature bouquet blossoms, and the tiny bear outfit.

Main Bunny
Legs and Body
Make two legs in cream. Stuff as you go, keeping the feet firm and the upper leg lightly stuffed. The feet in the image are simple and narrow because the shoes cover them later.
- Rnd 1: 6 sc in MR. (6)
- Rnd 2: inc around. (12)
- Rnd 3: sc, inc x6. (18)
- Rnd 4-7: sc around. (18)
- Rnd 8: 5 sc, 4 dec, 5 sc. (14)
- Rnd 9-15: sc around. (14)
Finish the first leg and fasten off. Make the second leg but do not fasten off. Join the legs with 4 chains. This short bridge helps create the gentle stance visible in the image, where the legs are close together and straight beneath the dress.
- Body Rnd 1: sc around first leg, sc across one side of chain bridge, sc around second leg, sc across other side of chain bridge. (36)
- Rnd 2-4: sc around. (36)
- Rnd 5: 10 sc, inc x2, 12 sc, inc x2, 8 sc. (40)
- Rnd 6-9: sc around. (40)
- Rnd 10: 8 sc, dec, 10 sc, dec, 18 sc. (38)
- Rnd 11: sc around. (38)
- Rnd 12: 7 sc, dec, 9 sc, dec, 18 sc. (36)
- Rnd 13: sc around in BLO. (36)
This BLO round marks the waist and gives a crisp edge for the dress and body shaping. Keep stuffing smooth. Do not overstuff the torso or the dress will stand away from the body rather than hanging neatly.
- Rnd 14-17: sc around. (36)
- Rnd 18: 4 sc, dec x6, 14 sc. (30)
- Rnd 19-21: sc around. (30)
- Rnd 22: 3 sc, dec x6, 12 sc. (24)
- Rnd 23-24: sc around. (24)
Stuff the lower body a bit more firmly than the upper body so the bunny stands better for display. Flatten and adjust the bottom. A weighted pouch may be added inside the lower torso if desired, but keep it light.
Head
The head is nearly spherical, with a subtly flattened face and a slight lower-cheek fullness. The image shows a calm expression, so the eyes sit wide apart and low enough to allow a forehead area beneath the cap.
- Rnd 1: 6 sc in MR. (6)
- Rnd 2: inc around. (12)
- Rnd 3: sc, inc x6. (18)
- Rnd 4: 2 sc, inc x6. (24)
- Rnd 5: 3 sc, inc x6. (30)
- Rnd 6: 4 sc, inc x6. (36)
- Rnd 7: 5 sc, inc x6. (42)
- Rnd 8: 6 sc, inc x6. (48)
- Rnd 9-16: sc around. (48)
Insert the bunny eyes between Rounds 11 and 12 with about 8 to 9 visible stitches between them. Test placement before securing. The face in the image looks gentle and symmetrical, so avoid placing the eyes too high or too close together.
- Rnd 17: 6 sc, dec x6. (42)
- Rnd 18: 5 sc, dec x6. (36)
- Rnd 19: 4 sc, dec x6. (30)
- Rnd 20: 3 sc, dec x6. (24)
- Rnd 21: 2 sc, dec x6. (18)
- Rnd 22: sc, dec x6. (12)
- Rnd 23: dec x6. (6)
Stuff very firmly before closing. Shape the cheeks by hand while stuffing so the face stays round rather than pointed. Leave a long tail for sewing the head to the body.
Ears
Make two in taupe. The ears are long, broad near the top, and softly tapered toward rounded ends. They are not stiff. They hang straight down under the cap and reach to about the upper arm area.
- Rnd 1: 6 sc in MR. (6)
- Rnd 2: inc around. (12)
- Rnd 3: sc, inc x6. (18)
- Rnd 4: 2 sc, inc x6. (24)
- Rnd 5-8: sc around. (24)
- Rnd 9: 10 sc, dec x2, 10 sc. (22)
- Rnd 10-12: sc around. (22)
- Rnd 13: 9 sc, dec x2, 9 sc. (20)
- Rnd 14-17: sc around. (20)
- Rnd 18: 8 sc, dec x2, 8 sc. (18)
- Rnd 19-24: sc around. (18)
- Rnd 25: 7 sc, dec x2, 7 sc. (16)
- Rnd 26-30: sc around. (16)
📌Thank you for reading the article
Flatten the ear and crochet through both layers for 6 stitches at the top, leaving a small opening edge to help with sewing and angle adjustment. Do not stuff. A lightly pressed flat shape matches the soft drape in the image.
Arms
Make two in cream. These arms are short, softly rounded, and slightly wider at the upper section. They point downward and rest near the side seams of the dress.
- Rnd 1: 6 sc in MR. (6)
- Rnd 2: inc around. (12)
- Rnd 3-5: sc around. (12)
- Rnd 6: 4 sc, dec x2, 4 sc. (10)
- Rnd 7-13: sc around. (10)
Stuff the lower half only. Flatten the top and close with 4 sc through both layers. Leave a tail for sewing. The arm should keep a soft bend without looking stiff.
Collar
The collar is cream and sits just above the dress bib. It consists of two rounded lobes in front, creating the neat storybook schoolwear look shown in the image.
- Ch 24.
- Row 1: Starting in second ch from hook, sc across. Turn. (23)
- Row 2: sl st in first 2 sts, sc 5, hdc 2, dc 2, hdc 2, sc 2, sl st in next 3 sts, sc 2, hdc 2, dc 2, hdc 2, sc 5. Fasten off.
Block lightly if needed so both collar points lie flat. Sew around the neck after attaching the head, with the center opening placed at the back. Overlap minimally so the front lobes stay even.
Blue Dress
The dress is the visual centerpiece. It is a sleeveless pinafore style with a fitted upper body, center front button band, and gently flared skirt ending in a small eyelet lace section. It should sit close to the torso and widen gradually toward the hem.
Upper Dress
Work from the top down in blue. The dress can be made in rows and seamed, or worked in joined rounds with a faux opening. The image clearly shows a front opening with buttons, so this version uses rows.
- Ch 25.
- Row 1: Starting in second ch from hook, sc across. Turn. (24)
- Row 2-6: sc across. Turn. (24)
This rectangular section forms the upper torso wrap. Test it around the bunny body before continuing. It should meet at the front edges with a slight gap for the button band, not overlap heavily.
- Row 7: sc 4, hdc 16, sc 4. Turn. (24)
- Row 8: sc across. Turn. (24)
- Row 9: sc 3, dec, sc 14, dec, sc 3. Turn. (22)
- Row 10: sc across. Turn. (22)
Fasten off one strap position and rejoin yarn to create arm openings if needed. The upper edge should curve slightly under the collar. Make two short shoulder tabs that will later sit under the collar and attach at the back.
- Left strap: Join yarn to one upper corner, sc 4 for 5 rows. Fasten off.
- Right strap: Repeat on the other side.
Skirt
Join blue yarn to the lower edge of the upper dress. Work around evenly. Increase in stages so the skirt widens softly, matching the image. It should not be very full. The flare is moderate and smooth.
- Rnd 1: 36 sc evenly around lower edge. Join. (36)
- Rnd 2: sc around. (36)
- Rnd 3: 5 sc, inc x6. (42)
- Rnd 4-5: sc around. (42)
- Rnd 6: 6 sc, inc x6. (48)
- Rnd 7-8: sc around. (48)
- Rnd 9: 7 sc, inc x6. (54)
- Rnd 10-11: sc around. (54)
- Rnd 12: 8 sc, inc x6. (60)
- Rnd 13: sc around. (60)
The hem contains openwork eyelets only in the lowest section. This gives the dress a delicate finish while keeping the rest of the skirt dense and structured.
- Rnd 14: [sc 3, ch 1, skip 1] around. Join. (60 including chain spaces)
- Rnd 15: sc in each sc and 1 sc in each ch-1 space. (60)
- Rnd 16: [sc 2, ch 1, skip 1, sc 2] around. Join.
- Rnd 17: sc evenly around, placing 1 sc in each ch space. (60)
Fasten off neatly. Add a slim edging around the front opening and neckline if needed with one row of sc. Sew on 4 small round buttons down the center front, spaced evenly from chest to hem. They are decorative but should align cleanly and visibly.

Floral Sleeve Garlands
These decorative bands sit around the upper lower-arm area and resemble tiny flower corsages wrapped around each sleeve line. They add pink, yellow, and green detail to an otherwise minimal body.
Base Band
Make two in green.
- Ch 14.
- Row 1: Starting in second ch from hook, sc across. (13)
- Fasten off, leaving a tail for sewing.
Mini Puff Flowers
Make several tiny flowers in deep pink, pale pink, yellow, and light purple. Use 4 to 5 flowers per arm band.
- Rnd 1: In MR, make [ch 2, 2 dc cluster, ch 2, sl st] 4 times. Tighten ring. Fasten off.
If you prefer a denser look, use small popcorn petals instead of dc clusters. Keep the flowers tiny. Oversized flowers will distort the delicate scale seen in the image.
Leaves
Make small leaves in green.
- Ch 4.
- Work back along chain: sl st, sc, hdc, sl st in base. Fasten off.
Sew flowers and leaves onto each green band in a clustered arrangement. Use more pink than yellow to match the image. Wrap each band around the arm and stitch in place after the arms are attached.
Cap
The cap is rounded, full, and slightly slouchy at the crown with a narrow, soft brim. It resembles a newsboy or page cap, not a bonnet tied under the chin. The ears emerge beneath it and hang at the sides.
Crown
- Rnd 1: 6 sc in MR. (6)
- Rnd 2: inc around. (12)
- Rnd 3: sc, inc x6. (18)
- Rnd 4: 2 sc, inc x6. (24)
- Rnd 5: 3 sc, inc x6. (30)
- Rnd 6: 4 sc, inc x6. (36)
- Rnd 7: 5 sc, inc x6. (42)
- Rnd 8: 6 sc, inc x6. (48)
- Rnd 9: 7 sc, inc x6. (54)
- Rnd 10-15: sc around. (54)
The top should look softly puffed rather than flat. Do not overstuff. In most cases the cap stays unstuffed and holds shape through tension alone.
Lower Band
- Rnd 16: BLO sc around. (54)
- Rnd 17: 7 sc, dec x6. (48)
- Rnd 18: sc around. (48)
- Rnd 19: 6 sc, dec x6. (42)
- Rnd 20: sc around. (42)
Brim
Work only across the front 18 stitches. Mark the center front first.
- Row 1: Join yarn at one brim edge marker, sc across 18 sts. Turn.
- Row 2: dec, sc 14, dec. Turn. (16)
- Row 3: sc across. Turn.
- Row 4: dec, sc 10, dec. Turn. (12)
- Row 5: sc across.
Fasten off. Lightly steam or finger-shape so the brim curves down gently over the forehead. Sew the cap to the head only at a few hidden points so it stays removable-looking while remaining secure for display.

Shoes
The bunny wears taupe Mary Jane shoes with straps and tiny flower decorations near the outer front. They fit closely around the feet and show a pale sole edge only minimally.
Make two.
- Rnd 1: Ch 7. Starting in second ch, sc 5, 3 sc in last ch, continue on opposite side, sc 4, inc in last. (14)
- Rnd 2: inc, 4 sc, inc x3, 4 sc, inc x2. (20)
- Rnd 3: BLO sc around. (20)
- Rnd 4: sc around. (20)
- Rnd 5: 5 sc, dec x5, 5 sc. (15)
- Rnd 6: sc around. (15)
Create the strap by joining yarn at one side, ch 5, skip across instep, attach with sl st, then sc back along the chain for a firm strap. Sew down permanently if desired. Add one tiny flower to each shoe using a 4-petal flower in pink and a yellow or cream center knot.
Backpack
The backpack is small, rectangular, and softly structured. It has a front flap with a button, a front pocket, and slender straps. It should sit upright when placed beside the bunny.
Body Panels
Use taupe. Make two rectangles.
- Ch 13.
- Row 1: Starting in second ch, sc across. (12)
- Rows 2-16: sc across. (12)
Make one gusset strip.
- Ch 6.
- Row 1: Starting in second ch, sc across. (5)
- Rows 2-30: sc across. (5)
Sew the gusset around three sides of one rectangle, then attach the second rectangle. Add a small base insert if you want a more upright finish.
Flap
- Ch 10.
- Row 1: Starting in second ch, sc across. (9)
- Rows 2-5: sc across.
- Row 6: dec, sc 5, dec. (7)
- Row 7: sc across.
Sew to the upper back edge. Add one small round button to the front center. Embroider or crochet a tiny loop beneath the flap if you want the closure to appear functional.
Front Pocket
- Ch 8.
- Row 1: Starting in second ch, sc across. (7)
- Rows 2-5: sc across.
Sew the pocket onto the lower front panel. Add two narrow straps by chaining long cords or making thin rows of slip stitches. Attach to upper back and lower back edges.
Flower Bouquet
The bouquet is tied together and placed in front of the bunny. It includes clustered blossoms in several shades with green stems that gather into a wrapped bundle. It should look full but miniature.
Stems
Make 10 to 14 stems in green.
- Ch 12.
- Starting in second ch, sl st back along chain. Fasten off with long tail.
Blossoms
Make small bobble or popcorn blossoms in pink, mauve, pale lilac, and cream-pink tones.
- Ch 3, 4-dc popcorn in first ch, ch 2, sl st in same point. Fasten off.
Attach one or two blossoms to each stem tip. Vary the heights slightly by trimming tails differently and shifting blossom placement. Gather all stems, wrap with taupe yarn several times, tie firmly, and trim evenly.

Stitched Cloth
The small rectangular piece on the table looks like a folded cloth or mat with delicate stitched floral accents near the edges. It is cream with a narrow border and tiny embroidered sprigs.
- In cream, ch 17.
- Row 1: Starting in second ch, sc across. (16)
- Rows 2-12: sc across. (16)
- Border: sc evenly around all four sides, placing 3 sc in each corner.
Using green and pink embroidery thread, add tiny diagonal stem stitches and French-knot style blossoms near two opposite corners, keeping the decoration sparse. The image shows a gentle accent, not a dense motif.
Small Bear Companion
This tiny seated bear echoes the bunny color palette. It has a brown head and limbs, a cream muzzle and body center, black eyes, a taupe cap, and a blue outfit with three front buttons and a slightly open hem section.
Bear Head
- Rnd 1: 6 sc in MR with brown. (6)
- Rnd 2: inc around. (12)
- Rnd 3: sc, inc x6. (18)
- Rnd 4: 2 sc, inc x6. (24)
- Rnd 5-8: sc around. (24)
Insert small black eyes between Rounds 5 and 6. Leave 5 to 6 stitches between them. Add a tiny cream muzzle piece before closing.
- Rnd 9: 2 sc, dec x6. (18)
- Rnd 10: sc, dec x6. (12)
- Rnd 11: dec x6. (6)
Bear Muzzle
- With cream, 6 sc in MR. (6)
- Rnd 2: inc around. (12)
- Fasten off and sew centered low on face.
Bear Ears
Make two in brown.
- 6 sc in MR. (6)
- Rnd 2: inc around. (12)
Flatten and sew to the upper sides of the head. Keep them small so the cap remains the main feature.
Bear Body and Legs
Use cream for the central body and brown for the outer sides if you want exact color blocking, or keep the entire lower body brown and cover the front with the blue outfit. The image reads as a light central chest with darker sides.
- Make two small legs: 6 sc in MR, inc to 12, work 3 rounds even.
- Join legs with 2 chains and work around for 26 total stitches.
- Work 4 rounds even.
- Decrease to 22, then to 18 over the next 3 rounds.
Stuff lightly. The bear is seated, so keep the lower body wider and flatter than the bunny body. This helps it sit naturally on a shelf or tabletop.
Bear Arms
Make two in brown.
- 6 sc in MR.
- Inc to 10.
- Work 5 rounds even.
Stuff lightly and sew to the body sides, angled forward slightly.
Bear Outfit
The bear outfit mirrors the bunny dress in simplified form. It is blue with a front button line and a slight eyelet effect at the lower hem.
- Ch enough to wrap the upper body, approximately 18.
- Work 5 rows sc for the bodice.
- Join blue yarn at lower edge and work a skirt section of 24 to 28 stitches.
- Increase lightly every second round for 3 rounds.
- Add one openwork round using [sc 2, ch 1, skip 1].
- Finish with one round sc.
Sew three tiny buttons vertically on the front. Keep the dress short so the seated legs remain visible.
Bear Cap
Make a smaller version of the bunny cap in taupe.
- Start with 6 sc in MR and increase evenly to 30 or 36 stitches.
- Work several rounds even.
- Decrease once for the lower band.
- Add a tiny front brim across the center front.
Sew lightly to the head. Because the bear ears are visible, keep the cap slightly higher than the bunny cap.
Assembly
Sew the bunny head to the body securely, making sure the face points straight forward. Add extra stuffing to the neck area before closing if needed. The head should sit centered with only a very short neck look visible.
Sew the arms at the sides just below the collar line. Angle them slightly inward. Attach the floral sleeve garlands around the lower upper-arm area. The flowers should face forward and outward, not hidden along the inner arm.
Sew the ears to the upper sides of the head, then place the cap over them. The top of each ear should disappear just under the lower cap edge. Let the ears hang almost straight down with only a gentle outward flare near the bottom.
Wrap the collar around the neck and sew in place. Add the dress over the body and secure the shoulder tabs at the back. Align the front opening exactly at the center. Stitch the button band neatly so the dress stays smooth across the torso.
Slip the shoes onto the feet and sew discreetly around the back edge if you want them fixed permanently. Set the backpack beside the bunny or sew it lightly to the back if your display requires a secured arrangement.
Arrange the bouquet, stitched cloth, and bear companion as separate accessories. The image composition places the bouquet and cloth at the bunny’s feet, with the backpack to one side and the bear on the other.
Final Assembly and Facial Detailing
Embroider the bunny nose in pale brown as a small horizontal triangle centered between the eyes and slightly low on the face. Add a short vertical line and a tiny split mouth beneath it. Keep the lines fine. Heavy embroidery will change the gentle expression.
Add faint blush on the bunny cheeks with pink thread or fabric-safe color. Place it low and soft. The face in the image is calm, balanced, and minimal. The bear face uses the same approach but with a slightly darker nose and a small rounded muzzle emphasis.
Before finishing, check that:
- The bunny ears hang evenly
- The cap brim sits low on the forehead
- The collar points are symmetrical
- The dress opening is centered
- The shoe flowers face outward
- The sleeve flowers are visible from the front
- The bear outfit clearly echoes the bunny outfit
Care Notes
Display pieces with miniature details hold shape best when handled gently. Keep the bouquet, backpack, and stitched cloth stored together in a small box or pouch when not in use so none of the tiny accessories become crushed or misplaced.
If gifting, include a note that the set contains small parts and is best treated as a decorative handmade item rather than a rough-play toy. Buttons and safety eyes should always be secured according to the recipient’s age and intended use.

Detailed Cleaning and Preservation Guidelines
Spot clean with a soft cloth, cool water, and a very mild soap. Avoid soaking the entire set unless absolutely necessary, especially when using buttons, blush, or internal structure pieces. Press out moisture gently with a towel and reshape each piece by hand.
Dry flat away from direct sun. Do not hang the bunny by the ears, hat, or dress straps while drying. Keep stored pieces away from humidity, dust, and rough friction. Acid-free tissue paper inside the backpack and beneath the cap can help preserve shape over time.
For long-term display, rotate the position of removable accessories every so often so straps and stitched points do not remain under tension. If fibers relax, a light steam nearby, never directly pressed, can help restore shape to the dress hem and cap brim.
