Daisy Hearth Bunny – Crochet

This charming amigurumi bunny set brings together the look of a handmade bunny doll, a crochet rabbit plush, and a collectible nursery decor piece. The soft cream and warm brown palette gives it the feel of a boutique stuffed animal, making it especially appealing to readers who love heirloom-style crochet dolls.

The full set also includes a fox friend, a tiny teapot, a teacup and saucer, a yarn basket, and an open book, so the finished project feels like a complete display scene. It suits makers searching for a premium amigurumi doll pattern, handmade toy inspiration, and giftable crochet home decor ideas.

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 design features a long-eared bunny with a rounded head, a softly tapered body, short arms, long slim legs, and a calm standing pose. The outfit is made up of a brown skirt, cream jacket, floral collar, crossbody bag, rounded shoes, and a cloche-style hat with a small flower trim.

The scene also includes a seated fox companion worked in orange, cream, brown, and dark accents. On the table are several small pieces: a teapot, a teacup, a saucer, a basket of yarn, and an open book. All pieces are sized to match the visual balance of the image.

Finished Size

• Main bunny: about 13 to 15 inches tall from feet to top of hat
• Fox companion: about 6 to 7 inches tall seated
• Teapot: about 2 inches tall
• Teacup: about 1 inch tall
• Saucer: about 1.5 inches wide
• Yarn basket: about 2 inches wide
• Open book: about 1.5 inches wide when open

These measurements assume worsted or light aran cotton yarn and a hook small enough to keep the stitches dense. Adjusting yarn weight will change the final size, but keep proportions the same so the set remains visually accurate.

Notes Before You Begin

• Work in continuous rounds unless a section says otherwise.
• Keep stitches tight so stuffing does not show through.
• Stuff the head firmly, the body medium-firm, and the limbs lightly to medium.
• The bunny’s expression depends on low-set features and slightly curved brows, so do not place the eyes too high.
• The ears are long and soft, hanging straight down from beneath the hat brim.
• The jacket is designed to overlap across the front and sit over a gathered skirt.
• Small brown bows are important to the look. Do not skip them.

Color and Style Placement

The bunny body is entirely cream. The skirt, shoe uppers, most trim, and all decorative bows are cocoa brown. The jacket is cream with brown edging, brown pocket lash details, and brown tie bows on the front. The collar is cream with brown trim and two white daisies with golden centers.

The hat is cream with a medium brown brim edge and a small side flower. The crossbody bag is cream on the flap and upper body, brown on the lower body and strap accents, with one small dark button on the flap. The fox uses rust orange as the main shade, cream for the muzzle and belly, brown for the vest and hat, and dark points on the paws and nose.

Main Bunny

Legs and Feet Make 2

Start with brown for the shoe.

1. Round 1: 6 sc in MR. (6)
2. Round 2: inc around. (12)
3. Round 3: sc, inc around. (18)
4. Round 4: 18 sc.
5. Round 5: sc 5, inc, sc 7, inc, sc 4. (20)
6. Round 6: 20 sc.
7. Round 7: Work in BLO, 20 sc.
8. Round 8: sc 6, dec, sc 6, dec, sc 4. (18)
9. Round 9: sc 5, dec, sc 5, dec, sc 4. (16)
10. Stuff the toe area lightly and flatten the base so the shoe sits level.
11. Round 10: Change to cream. In BLO, 16 sc.
12. Rounds 11 to 22: 16 sc.

The legs should be slim and straight. They need to look delicate under the full skirt, so avoid overstuffing. Insert a thin support wire only if you prefer a firmer standing result, but the photographed look is soft rather than rigid.

For the second leg, finish at the same stitch count. Do not fasten off the second leg. On the first leg, fasten off. You will join both legs into the body.

Body

1. Round 23: On the second leg, ch 4 and join to the first leg. Sc 16 around first leg, sc 4 across chain, sc 16 around second leg, sc 4 on other side of chain. (40)
2. Round 24: 40 sc.
3. Round 25: sc 8, dec, sc 18, dec, sc 10. (38)
4. Round 26: 38 sc.
5. Round 27: sc 8, dec, sc 17, dec, sc 9. (36)
6. Round 28: 36 sc.
7. Round 29: sc 7, dec, sc 16, dec, sc 9. (34)
8. Round 30: 34 sc.
9. Round 31: sc 6, dec, sc 15, dec, sc 9. (32)
10. Round 32: 32 sc.

12. Round 34: 30 sc.
13. Round 35: sc 5, dec, sc 13, dec, sc 8. (28)

16. Round 40: 30 sc.
17. Round 41: sc 6, inc, sc 13, inc, sc 9. (32)
18. Round 42: 32 sc.

The lower body should be narrow under the jacket, then gently round at the chest. Stuff gradually as you work. The front should remain smooth because it will sit directly beneath the overlapping cardigan and the collar.

Head

1. Round 1: 6 sc in MR. (6)
2. Round 2: inc around. (12)
3. Round 3: sc, inc around. (18)
4. Round 4: sc 2, inc around. (24)
5. Round 5: sc 3, inc around. (30)
6. Round 6: sc 4, inc around. (36)
7. Round 7: sc 5, inc around. (42)
8. Rounds 8 to 15: 42 sc.

Insert the eyes between Rounds 11 and 12 with about 7 stitches between them. The eyes should sit low enough to leave room for brows under the hat brim. Add stuffing as the head grows, and keep the face full but not hard.

1. Round 16: sc 5, dec around. (36)
2. Round 17: sc 4, dec around. (30)
3. Round 18: sc 3, dec around. (24)
4. Round 19: sc 2, dec around. (18)
5. Round 20: sc, dec around. (12)

Fasten off with a long tail after stuffing very firmly. Sew the head to the body with the face centered. The bunny in the image has almost no visible neck, so seat the head deeply onto the upper body.

Muzzle Shaping and Nose

Using cream yarn, lightly sculpt a subtle muzzle by drawing the lower center of the face inward just a little. The muzzle should not protrude strongly. The face in the image is smooth and gentle, with only a small central nose and straight mouth detail.

Embroider the nose in pale pink or light brown as a small upside-down triangle. Add a short vertical line downward and a tiny split mouth. Keep the stitching short and neat. Embroider curved brows above each eye in dark brown, and add soft blush with dry pastel if desired.

Arms Make 2

Begin with cream.

1. Round 1: 6 sc in MR. (6)
2. Round 2: inc around. (12)
3. Rounds 3 to 5: 12 sc.
4. Round 6: dec 2 times, sc 8. (10)
5. Rounds 7 to 16: 10 sc.

Flatten the top and close with 5 sc through both sides, or sew closed later. Lightly stuff only the lower half. The arms should look soft and slightly tapered, with rounded hands and narrow sleeves under the cardigan.

Ears Make 2

Work in cream. The ears are long, flat, and softly rounded at the ends.

1. Round 1: 6 sc in MR. (6)
2. Round 2: inc around. (12)
3. Round 3: sc, inc around. (18)
4. Rounds 4 to 8: 18 sc.
5. Round 9: sc 7, dec, sc 9. (17)
6. Round 10: 17 sc.
7. Round 11: sc 6, dec, sc 9. (16)
8. Rounds 12 to 22: 16 sc.

Flatten each ear and sc through both layers across the top to close. Do not stuff. Sew the ears slightly below the crown line so they drop straight down at the sides of the face. Most of each ear remains visible below the hat brim.

Bunny Clothing and Accessories

Brown Skirt

The skirt sits at the waist and flares gently with horizontal round texture. It should reach just below the jacket hem and end above the knees.

1. Using brown, ch 31 and join carefully into a ring, or make a foundation ring that fits the waist.
2. Round 1: 30 sc.
3. Round 2: 30 sc in BLO.
4. Round 3: sc 4, inc around. (36)
5. Round 4: 36 sc.
6. Round 5: sc 5, inc around. (42)
7. Round 6: 42 sc.
8. Round 7: sc 6, inc around. (48)
9. Round 8: 48 sc.
10. Round 9: sc 7, inc around. (54)
11. Rounds 10 to 12: 54 sc.

Fasten off. Sew or slide the skirt onto the bunny and tack it at the waist. The lower edge should keep a gentle rounded flare rather than a sharp ruffle.

Cardigan Jacket

This piece is worked in rows so it can overlap in front. The visual effect is a short cream cardigan with cocoa trim, two small pockets, and tiny bow closures placed down the front.

1. Using cream, ch 31.
2. Row 1: Sc in second ch from hook and across. (30)
3. Rows 2 to 5: Ch 1, turn, 30 sc.

Now shape the arm openings and front overlap.

1. Row 6: Sc 5, ch 5, skip 5, sc 10, ch 5, skip 5, sc 5. (30 including chains)
2. Rows 7 to 11: Work sc across, placing sc into chain spaces.
3. Row 12: To create the slight front opening slant, dec at the beginning and end of the row. (28)
4. Rows 13 to 15: 28 sc.

Fasten off. Test the fit around the body. The jacket should overlap diagonally from the upper right to lower left when viewed from the front, matching the photographed shape. Sew side and underarm seams only as needed, keeping the front edges free.

Work a full edging around the jacket in brown. Add one round of sl st or sc along all outer edges, cuffs, lower hem, neckline, and front opening. The trim should be thin and neat, not bulky.

Pockets

Make 2 in cream.

1. Ch 7.
2. Row 1: Sc in second ch from hook and across. (6)
3. Rows 2 to 4: Ch 1, turn, 6 sc.

Fasten off, leaving tails for sewing. Stitch one pocket to each lower front side of the jacket. Add a short brown stitched curve across each pocket top to imitate the decorative lash-shaped trim seen in the image.

Front Bows and Ties

Use brown yarn and make three tiny bows for the jacket front. Wrap yarn around two fingers several times, tie tightly at the center, trim evenly, and lightly secure the loops so they stay neat. Sew one bow high at the neckline, one at mid-chest, and one near the lower overlap.

Add a slender diagonal stitched line or narrow cord to suggest the wrap closing line across the front. This is a small detail, but it helps the jacket match the image more closely.

Floral Collar

The collar is one of the most important visual details. It is broad, rounded, and rests on both shoulders with brown trim around the outer edge. Each side carries one daisy motif.

1. Using cream, ch 26.
2. Row 1: Sc in second ch from hook and across. (25)
3. Row 2: Ch 1, turn, dec, sc 21, dec. (23)
4. Row 3: Ch 1, turn, 23 sc.
5. Row 4: Ch 1, turn, dec, sc 19, dec. (21)
6. Row 5: Ch 1, turn, 21 sc.

Fasten off. Fold or curve the strip around the neckline to check the shape. The ends should rest at the front chest, leaving room for the upper bow.

Edge the entire outer line in brown with one round of sc. The brown border should clearly frame the collar and make the daisies stand out.

Daisies Make 2

Using white, make a tiny flower with five rounded petals.

1. Round 1: In MR, repeat 5 times: ch 3, 2 dc, ch 3, sl st into ring.
2. Pull ring closed and fasten off.

Using mustard or gold, make a tiny center with 6 sc in MR or use a few tight embroidery stitches. Attach one center to each flower. Sew one flower on each front side of the collar.

Crossbody Bag

The bag hangs from the bunny’s left shoulder across the body and rests near the right hip. The lower half is brown, the upper half and flap are cream, and a single small dark button sits on the flap.

1. Using brown, ch 9.
2. Round 1: Starting in second ch, sc 7, 3 sc in last ch, sc 6 on opposite side, 2 sc in last ch. (18)
3. Rounds 2 to 4: 18 sc.
4. Change to cream.
5. Rounds 5 to 6: 18 sc.

Flatten the piece. For the flap, attach cream yarn to the back upper edge.

1. Row 1: 8 sc.
2. Row 2: dec, sc 4, dec. (6)
3. Row 3: 6 sc.

Make a strap by chaining enough to fit across the bunny from shoulder to opposite hip, then work sl st back along the chain for strength. Sew the strap securely. Add a tiny dark brown knot or button stitch to the flap.

Shoes

The shoes are already formed as part of the legs, but they need upper strap details. Using brown yarn, embroider or crochet a narrow strap across each foot opening. Add a tiny white flower or knot on the outer side of each shoe to echo the sweet vintage style shown in the image.

Keep the shoes rounded and low. They should look like simple Mary Jane flats rather than boots.

Cloche Hat

The hat is rounded at the crown with a soft downward brim. It sits low over the forehead and frames the face while allowing the ears to fall from beneath it.

1. Using cream, Round 1: 6 sc in MR. (6)
2. Round 2: inc around. (12)
3. Round 3: sc, inc around. (18)
4. Round 4: sc 2, inc around. (24)
5. Round 5: sc 3, inc around. (30)
6. Round 6: sc 4, inc around. (36)
7. Round 7: sc 5, inc around. (42)
8. Rounds 8 to 11: 42 sc.
9. Round 12: Work in BLO, 42 sc.
10. Round 13: sc 6, inc around. (48)
11. Round 14: 48 sc.
12. Round 15: sl st or sc loosely around.

Using brown, add a narrow edging around the brim. This should form the distinct darker rim visible in the image. If you want a firmer brim, lightly line it with thin plastic canvas or starch it after finishing.

Hat Flower

Make a tiny brown flower and sew it to one side of the hat brim.

1. In MR, repeat 5 times: ch 2, 2 hdc, ch 2, sl st into ring.

Teacup and Saucer

For the cup, make a tiny open cylinder in cream and brown. Start with 6 sc in MR, increase to 12, then work one or two rounds even. Add a short chain handle. For the saucer, make a flat circle to 12 or 18 stitches and keep it shallow.

Yarn Basket

Open Book

Using cream or off-white, crochet two small flat rectangles and join them at the center like open pages. Add a brown cover edge underneath. With dark thread, embroider a few page lines so it reads clearly as an open book on the table.

Assembly Order

1. Sew the bunny head to the body.
2. Attach the ears so they hang long and straight.
3. Sew the arms to the upper sides of the body.
4. Slide or stitch the skirt into place at the waist.
5. Fit and sew the jacket around the torso.
6. Attach the collar and then sew on the daisies.
7. Add the front bows and pocket details.
8. Sew the shoe strap accents.

Final Assembly and Facial Detailing

When placing the bunny face, keep the eyes glossy and gentle, with the brows slightly arched upward toward the outer corners. This creates the sweet, calm expression visible in the image. The nose should be small, centered, and delicate, never oversized.

Check the ear placement before sewing permanently. They should emerge from the sides of the head, not from the very top. After the hat is attached, the ears need to fall naturally beneath the brim and frame the cheeks without twisting outward.

Center the floral collar so both daisies show evenly. The bag should cross the body at an angle and rest neatly over the skirt. The jacket front should overlap slightly, and the three bows should be visible from top to bottom.

For the fox, keep the head large compared to the body. Sit the fox upright with the tail slightly curved at the side or back. Place the hat at a small tilt for charm. Arrange the tea set and book so the full scene feels cozy and balanced.

Care Notes

• Display use: Best kept as a decorative amigurumi set rather than a rough-play toy.
• Sunlight: Avoid long exposure to direct sun to prevent fading.
• Dusting: Use a soft dry brush or clean makeup brush.
• Shape: Store upright or supported so the hat brim and ears keep their form.

Quick Checklist Before You Finish

• Head firmly stuffed and centered on body
• Eyes placed low and evenly spaced
• Ears hanging straight and matching in length
• Skirt flaring gently, not too ruffled
• Jacket trimmed in brown with three visible bows
• Two daisies securely attached to collar
• Bag strap crossing the body neatly
• Hat sitting low with side flower attached
• Fox assembled in balanced seated pose
• Teapot, cup, saucer, yarn basket, and book all completed

Detailed Cleaning and Preservation Guidelines

Spot clean with a damp cloth and mild soap whenever possible. Do not soak pieces with glued or heavily structured details. If full washing is necessary, place the item in a mesh laundry bag and wash gently by hand in cool water.

Press out excess moisture with a towel rather than twisting. Reshape the bunny, fox, hat brim, and bag while damp. Let everything dry flat on a clean towel away from heat. For long-term preservation, store the set in a dry place with tissue support around delicate accessories.
