This elegant amigurumi set features a long-eared bunny dressed in a soft apricot outfit with a matching beret, floral jacket trim, scalloped skirt, Mary Jane shoes, and a sweet collection of accessories. It has the look of a collectible crochet bunny doll, heirloom handmade toy, and charming nursery décor piece all in one.
The full set also includes a tiny cat companion, a petal basket, a wrapped flower bouquet, and a lace-edged handkerchief. If your readers search for an amigurumi bunny doll pattern, handmade gift set inspiration, or boutique-style crochet animal décor, this design fits that look beautifully and naturally.

Gauge and General Notes
This set is worked tightly so the fabric looks smooth, dense, and polished. The stitches in the photo are compact and even, with very little gap between rounds. If your work looks loose, go down a hook size. Tight tension matters because the dolls have a neat boutique finish.
The head is proportionally large, the torso is slim, and the legs are narrow with a gentle taper. The ears are long, soft, and lightly stuffed only at the base so they hang naturally beside the face. The clothing is shaped to sit close to the body without looking bulky.
The jacket is short and rounded at the front edges, the skirt is wide and gently flared, and the beret has a soft, shallow crown rather than a tall hat shape. Small floral trims are important in this design, so do not skip the roses, leaves, and tiny decorative edging.
- Work in continuous rounds unless stated otherwise.
- Mark the first stitch of each round.
- Stuff firmly but not hard. The dolls should hold shape while staying soft.
- Invisible decreases will give the cleanest result.
- For best proportions, make all small accessories with the smaller hook.

Main Bunny
Legs Make 2
The bunny’s legs are slim and straight, with slightly rounded feet hidden by the shoes. Use cream yarn. Stuff the lower foot and ankle firmly, then reduce stuffing in the upper leg so the dress falls smoothly over the body.

Fasten off the first leg. Make the second leg the same, but do not fasten off. Lightly flatten the foot so the front is slightly broader than the heel. This helps the Mary Jane shoes sit correctly later.
Body
The body is narrow and upright. It should not be pear-shaped. Join the legs so the feet point forward and the inner thighs touch. Use cream yarn throughout the body. The neck is short but stable because the head is large.
- Ch 3 from second leg and join to first leg. Sc around first leg 12, sc in 3 ch, sc around second leg 12, sc on other side of ch 3 = 30

Stuff the body firmly at the hips and chest, but keep the waist and upper torso smooth. The body in the image looks compact and straight, not heavily rounded. Leave a long tail if you want extra security when sewing the head.
Arms Make 2
The arms are medium length and slender, ending just below the jacket hem. The cuffs sit slightly wide because floral trim is added later. Use cream for the paw and apricot for the sleeve.

Stuff only the lower half of each arm. The sleeves in the photo are soft and gently curved, not stiff. Sew the arms at the upper body so they angle downward naturally, with the paws near the side seams of the skirt.
Head
The head is the key shape in this design. It is large, round, and slightly wider through the cheeks. The muzzle is subtle rather than protruding. The face should feel calm, sweet, and centered. Use cream yarn.
- MR, 6 sc
- inc x6 = 12
- (sc, inc) x6 = 18

Insert the eyes between rounds 13 and 14 with about 11 visible stitches between them. The eyes in the image are slightly wide-set and glossy. Before closing the head, add extra stuffing in the cheeks and forehead so the face looks smooth and rounded.
- (3 sc, dec) x6 = 24
- (2 sc, dec) x6 = 18
Fasten off with a long tail. Finish stuffing before closing the opening during assembly. The face should remain symmetrical from every angle because the beret sits low and reveals most of the front of the head.
Muzzle Shaping and Nose
The muzzle is very light in this design. You do not need a separate muzzle piece. Instead, use soft sculpting to create a slight central indentation under the eyes. Embroider a small upside-down triangle nose in dusty pink, then add a short vertical line below it.
Keep the nose tiny. It should sit low enough to leave open space above it, which helps preserve the calm, childlike expression. Add a faint touch of blush under the eyes if desired, but use very little.
Ears Make 2
The ears are long, narrow, and softly rounded at the tip. They hang straight down from under the beret and frame the head. Use cream yarn. These ears are not thick. Only the top inch needs a hint of stuffing.

Leave a long tail. Sew the ears high on the sides of the head, slightly behind the eye line. They should drop vertically and reach to about the upper arm area, just as shown in the image.
Bunny Clothing
Dress Bodice
The dress is made in apricot and sits beneath the jacket. The visible neckline is simple and neat. Work the bodice to fit the narrow torso closely so it does not bunch. It should tuck cleanly under the jacket front.
Start with a chain that fits around the upper torso. Join carefully without twisting.

Fasten off if you prefer to begin the skirt separately from the front loops. The bodice should end just above the natural waist. The photo shows a clean transition from fitted top to full skirt.
Dress Skirt
The skirt is one of the most important details in the set. It is full, evenly pleated by stitch placement, and ends in a rounded shell edge. The skirt falls to just below the knees and spreads softly rather than sticking outward stiffly.
Join apricot yarn to the front loops left from the last bodice round.

For the scalloped hem, count carefully. The hem in the image is pronounced but tidy, with each shell rounded and separated enough to remain visible.
- Shell round: (sl st in next st, skip 1, 5 dc in next st, skip 1, sl st in next st) repeat around
If needed, adjust by one or two stitches before the shell round so the scallops end evenly. Steam lightly from a distance or finger-shape each shell after finishing.
Jacket
The jacket is short, fitted, and slightly cropped. The hem curves gently into two rounded front panels, meeting near the center but not overlapping far. Use apricot yarn. Work in rows from the neckline downward.
- Ch 28
- Row 1: sc in 2nd ch from hook and across = 27
- Row 2: ch 1, turn, 27 sc
- Row 3: ch 1, turn, inc, 11 sc, inc, 11 sc, inc, 1 sc = 30
- Row 4: 30 sc
- Row 5: inc, 12 sc, inc, 12 sc, inc, 1 sc = 33
- Row 6: 33 sc
Now shape armholes by skipping stitches and continuing each section. You may also prefer to crochet the jacket directly around the body for exact fit. Either method is fine as long as the finished silhouette matches the photo.
Continue until the body section reaches the waist. Add 3 small buttonholes on one side using chain spaces. The jacket closes visibly with three tiny buttons, evenly spaced down the center front. The lower edge should be softly rounded, not straight across.
Make two sleeves by joining yarn at the armhole and crocheting downward in rounds. Begin with 18 stitches, then reduce gently to 14 or 15 stitches near the cuff. The sleeves are long and smooth, ending right above the paw.
Finish all front edges, neckline, and hem with one neat round of single crochet. Do not make the edging heavy. The jacket in the image looks refined and light, allowing the floral trim to stand out clearly.
Jacket Floral Trim
This design has miniature rose clusters and little leaf stitches along the jacket hem and cuffs. These details should be delicate rather than oversized. Place them evenly so the jacket still looks elegant and wearable.
Mini Rose Make Several
- With apricot, ch 16
- Starting in 2nd ch from hook: 2 sc in each chain across
- Roll into a spiral and sew base closed
Make about 9 to 11 roses for the bunny set. Use smaller roses at the cuffs and slightly fuller roses at the lower jacket edge and beret trim.
Leaves
- With sage, ch 4
- Sl st in 2nd ch, sc in next, hdc in last
Make tiny pairs of leaves and sew them beside rose clusters. On the bunny jacket, place a floral line across each cuff and several clusters along the lower front hem, especially near the rounded corners.
Mary Jane Shoes Make 2
The shoes are cream and apricot, with a strap across the top and a low rounded profile. They should fit closely over the feet without thick bulk. The strap sits high enough to show the opening clearly, just like classic Mary Jane styling.
- With apricot, ch 7
- Round 1: sc in 2nd ch from hook, 4 sc, 3 sc in last ch, work opposite side 4 sc, 2 sc in last = 14
- Round 2: inc, 4 sc, inc x3, 4 sc, inc x2 = 20
- Round 3: 20 sc in BLO
- Round 4: 20 sc
- Round 5: 5 sc, dec x5, 5 sc = 15
Fasten off and fit to the foot. Add a cream inner opening if desired by embroidering or crocheting a tiny insert. For the strap, chain 8 to 10 and sew one side to the shoe. Add a tiny button or knot on the other side.
Make sure both shoes sit flat. The shoes in the image are neat and petite, with the apron opening centered and the straps evenly tensioned.
Beret
The beret is shallow, rounded, and worn tilted slightly to one side. It has a small band at the lower edge and a floral accent placed at the front side. Use apricot yarn. The finished hat should sit low over one ear base.
- MR, 6 sc
- inc x6 = 12
- (sc, inc) x6 = 18
- (2 sc, inc) x6 = 24
- (3 sc, inc) x6 = 30
- (4 sc, inc) x6 = 36
- (5 sc, inc) x6 = 42
- (6 sc, inc) x6 = 48
- 48 sc
- (6 sc, dec) x6 = 42
- (5 sc, dec) x6 = 36
- 36 sc
📌Thank you for reading the article
To create the band, work 2 more rounds of 36 sc, then one final round in slip stitches with relaxed tension. Shape the hat with your fingers so the crown spreads softly and the edge curves slightly upward on the opposite side from the flowers.
Add 2 or 3 small roses and several leaves to the side front of the beret. This cluster should echo the jacket trim but remain compact.
Petal Basket
The basket is shallow, soft, and decorated with elongated petal shapes hanging around the rim. It has two short handles. Use apricot yarn. The base is rounded and firm enough to hold shape, but the upper sides remain soft.
Basket Base and Sides
- MR, 6 sc
- inc x6 = 12
- (sc, inc) x6 = 18
- (2 sc, inc) x6 = 24
- (3 sc, inc) x6 = 30
- 30 sc in BLO
- 30 sc
- 30 sc
- 30 sc
If you want the basket to stand more firmly, insert a circle of plastic canvas or cardboard at the base before finishing. The sample in the image looks lightly structured, not stiff.
Handles Make 2
- Ch 18
- Sl st back across or work 17 sc
Sew each handle to opposite sides of the basket. The handles should stand up gently and curve inward. They are not tall handles.
Petal Decorations Make 6
- Ch 9
- Starting in 2nd ch: sl st, sc, hdc, dc, dc, hdc, sc, sl st
Sew the petals around the basket rim so they overlap slightly. In the photo, the petals hang outward from the upper edge and create a floral basket effect rather than a plain tote shape.
Flower Bouquet
The bouquet contains compact rounded blossoms in deep apricot and yellow tones with green stems wrapped together. Keep the blooms small and textured. They look like tiny closed roses or ranunculus-style buds.
Small Rolled Flowers Make 4 to 5
- Ch 12
- 2 sc in each chain across
- Roll and stitch closed
Use two shades of orange and one warm yellow. Make the flowers slightly different sizes by changing the chain length a little. The bouquet in the image looks hand-tied and organic rather than perfectly identical.
Stems
- With green, ch 10 to 12 for each flower stem
- Sl st back along the chain
Join the finished flowers together. Wrap the stem bundle with beige or cream yarn near the top and again at the lower stem area. Trim tails neatly so the bouquet looks polished.
Handkerchief
The handkerchief is a tiny folded square in white or very pale cream with a decorative apricot-gold border. It adds a refined parlor detail to the set. Keep it small, flat, and delicate.
- Ch 13
- Row 1: sc in 2nd ch from hook and across = 12
- Rows 2 to 12: ch 1, turn, 12 sc
Fasten off. With pale gold thread, embroider a tiny edge design around the perimeter. Add little loops or short scallops at the corners if desired. Fold once into a triangle or soft square and tack lightly if you want it displayed as in the image.

Mini Cat Companion
The companion figure is a tiny cream cat with pointed ears, black eyes, a pale pink nose, apricot beret, matching jacket, flared skirt, and crossbody flower bag. Its proportions are round-headed and short-bodied, giving it a cuddly miniature look.
Cat Legs Make 2
- MR, 6 sc
- inc x6 = 12
- 12 sc
- (2 sc, dec) x3 = 9
- 9 sc
- 9 sc
- 9 sc
Fasten off first leg. Make second leg and join the same way as the bunny, using ch 2 between legs.
Cat Body
- Join legs for total of 20 stitches
- 20 sc
- 20 sc
- (3 sc, dec) x4 = 16
- 16 sc
- (2 sc, dec) x4 = 12
- 12 sc
- (sc, inc) x6 = 18
- 18 sc
- (4 sc, dec) x3 = 15
Stuff lightly. The mini cat should feel compact and small enough to stand beside the bunny without overpowering the accessories.
Cat Head
- MR, 6 sc
- inc x6 = 12
- (sc, inc) x6 = 18
- (2 sc, inc) x6 = 24
- (3 sc, inc) x6 = 30
- (4 sc, inc) x6 = 36
- 36 sc for 5 rounds
- (4 sc, dec) x6 = 30
- (3 sc, dec) x6 = 24
- (2 sc, dec) x6 = 18
Insert eyes between the middle rounds, with about 6 to 7 stitches between them. Embroider a tiny pink triangular nose and a short muzzle line. Add subtle cheek shaping if desired.
Cat Ears Make 2
- MR, 4 sc
- (sc, inc) x2 = 6
- 6 sc
- (2 sc, inc) x2 = 8
- 8 sc
- Flatten and stitch closed
Sew the ears high on top of the head. They should be small and upright, just visible beneath the beret edge.
Cat Arms Make 2
- MR, 6 sc
- 6 sc
- Change to apricot
- 6 sc for 5 more rounds
- Flatten and close
Sew the arms at the upper sides of the cat body. They should angle down softly and stay mostly visible below the jacket sleeves.
Cat Outfit
Use the same methods as the bunny outfit but scale everything down. The cat jacket is short and the skirt ends just above the feet. Add a tiny beret in apricot with one small stem or knot at the top center.
For the skirt, begin with 18 to 20 stitches around the waist, increase gently to 30 or 36, then finish with a shell edge. Keep the flare moderate so the mini figure can still stand.
The cat jacket closes at the center front. Add a tiny trim line if you wish, but keep embellishment simpler than the bunny. The image shows the cat outfit coordinated, not overloaded.
Cat Crossbody Flower Bag
This little bag is one of the cutest details in the set. It sits at the cat’s side and has a flower on the front. Use cream or pale beige for the strap and apricot with yellow-green details for the flower.
- Bag center: MR, 6 sc
- inc x6 = 12
- 12 sc
- Fasten off
Add petals around the circle with apricot yarn. Make 5 small petals using chain-2 or chain-3 loops, then add a tiny yellow center. For the strap, chain enough length to cross diagonally from shoulder to opposite hip.
Sew the bag to one side of the cat outfit after positioning the strap. The flower should sit near the lower side of the skirt, matching the image closely.
Final Assembly and Facial Detailing
Sew the bunny head securely to the body first. Check the front view, side view, and tilt before closing fully. Add the ears after the head is attached so you can judge their exact drop and spacing against the beret and shoulders.
Sew the arms slightly below the neckline. Dress the bunny in the bodice and skirt, then add the jacket and buttons. Fit the shoes snugly and stitch them in place if needed. Place the beret at a gentle angle so one ear emerges clearly below it.
For the face, keep the nose tiny and centered. The eyes should shine but remain calm. Avoid adding a large smile. A soft vertical mouth stitch and a touch of cheek blush are enough for the gentle expression shown in the image.
Assemble the cat in the same order: head, ears, arms, outfit, beret, and crossbody bag. Once both dolls are complete, arrange the basket, bouquet, and handkerchief so the full set reads like a coordinated apricot parlor scene.
Care Notes
- Display away from direct sunlight to protect the warm apricot tone.
- Handle floral trims gently because the roses and leaves are small.
- If gifting to a child, replace safety eyes with embroidered eyes.
- Store the bouquet and handkerchief separately when not displayed.
Quick Checklist Before You Finish
- Both bunny ears hang evenly and reach the correct length.
- Jacket front curves neatly and closes with three buttons.
- Skirt scallops are even all the way around.
- Mary Jane straps match in height and tension.
- Beret tilt looks natural and floral trim is balanced.
- Basket petals overlap softly and handles are symmetrical.
- Cat bag sits crossbody and flower faces forward.
Detailed Cleaning and Preservation Guidelines
Spot clean only with a barely damp cloth and mild soap. Do not soak the dolls, because the stuffing and sculpted facial shaping may shift. Blot gently and let each piece dry fully on a towel in its natural shape.
For long-term storage, wrap the dolls in clean tissue and place them in a breathable box. Keep heavy accessories from pressing against the face or hat. This helps preserve the rounded head shape, ear drape, jacket trim, and crisp scalloped hems.
