Please note: I strive for accuracy in every pattern, but occasional errors can happen. Thank you for understanding and for enjoying my designs.

Pattern Overview

This pattern recreates the full crochet scene shown in the photo:

• A standing bunny doll with a large round head and slim body
• Long floppy ears placed low on the head
• A burgundy flower overalls outfit with scalloped cuffs
• A matching wide-brim hat with a flower accent
• A small side bag
• Mary Jane style shoes
• A tiny fox companion in overalls
• A tiny basket accessory for the fox
• A miniature watering can
• A small succulent in a pot

The proportions are important for the overall look. The bunny has a head that is slightly wider than the torso, a short neck, narrow shoulders, a softly rounded belly, slim legs, and simple tubular arms. The ears are long, flat, and relaxed. The fox is tiny compared with the bunny and reaches about knee height.

If you already made the body from the head downward, sew the legs centered under the body. The legs should hang straight and slightly apart so the doll can stand with support.

Lightly stuff only the lower half. Flatten the top and close with 4 sc through both layers. Leave a long tail for sewing.

Sew the arms to the body at the shoulder line, about one round below the neck. Angle them slightly downward so they rest close to the sides, as shown in the image.

Use cream yarn. The ears are long, flat, soft, and not overstuffed.

1. Round 1: 6 sc in mr. (6)

Do not stuff. Flatten each ear and sew the opening closed. Fold the top edge slightly before sewing to create a gentle curve. Sew ears to the head between Rounds 6 and 9, placing them lower than the crown and slightly toward the sides. They should fall straight down past the shoulders.

Color Placement Notes

• The bunny body, head, arms, ears, and legs above the shoes are cream
• The hat, shoes, bag, and overalls base are burgundy
• The daisy centers are mustard
• The daisy petals combine white and pink tones
• The fox body includes a blue shirt and green overalls
• The fox has orange head, ears, limbs, and tail with cream muzzle and tail tip

Detailed Positioning Guide

Accurate placement is what makes this set look like the photo rather than a generic bunny doll.

• Place the eyes low enough to keep the forehead large and childlike
• Keep the ears attached wide apart and lower than the top center of the head
• Sew the arms so they hang almost straight with only a slight inward turn
• Set the overalls high on the waist so the floral design fills most of the front
• Let the bag sit on the bunny’s right side
• Angle the hat slightly downward across the forehead
• Keep the fox proportionally tiny beside the bunny’s lower right side

Optional Finishing Tips for a Polished Boutique Look

• Lightly steam the hat brim from a distance if your yarn allows it
• Use blush very sparingly on the bunny cheeks
• Embroider the brows in a very thin line only
• Block the flower motifs before sewing for crisp circles
• Use matching sewing thread to tack accessories invisibly if displaying permanently

Final Assembly and Facial Detailing

Sew all parts securely with small neat stitches. Add the bunny ears first, then arms, then outfit details. Position the fox so the head is slightly oversized and endearing. Embroider the bunny nose, mouth, and brows softly. Keep all facial details tiny, centered, and balanced for the sweet expression shown in the image.

Care Notes

Display pieces will stay nicest if handled gently. Spot clean whenever possible. If the toys are used as soft decor or nursery shelf pieces, avoid pulling on straps, petals, hat brim, or the fox basket handle. Store away from direct sunlight to reduce color fading.

Quick Checklist Before You Finish

• Head firmly stuffed and centered
• Ears level and evenly spaced
• Eyes aligned
• Shoes matched in height
• Overalls fitted snugly
• Daisy motifs evenly placed
• Hat flower attached on the right side
• Bag worn diagonally
• Fox scaled smaller than bunny knee height
• Mini accessories balanced and neat

Detailed Cleaning and Preservation Guidelines

For best long-term results, dust regularly with a soft dry brush. For deeper cleaning, gently dab with a cloth using cool water and mild soap, then reshape and air dry flat. Do not machine wash if the piece includes blush, glued details, or tightly positioned accessories. Keep in a clean dry place and avoid compression during storage.
