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 uses US crochet terms and is written for a firm amigurumi fabric. Most pieces are worked in continuous spiral rounds unless the instructions say to join. Use a stitch marker in the first stitch of every round so the shaping stays even.

The rabbit is designed with a large rounded head, a smaller soft body, long upright ears, short cylindrical arms, sturdy legs, cuffed green shorts, and layered accessories. The finished doll should sit close to the proportions in the image, with the head slightly wider than the torso and the ears adding height.

Finished Size

• Main rabbit doll: about 11 in / 28 cm tall from feet to ear tips when using sport weight cotton yarn and a 2.25 mm hook.
• Body without ears: about 8 in / 20 cm tall.
• Straw hat: about 3.5 in / 9 cm wide.
• Watering can: about 2.25 in / 5.5 cm long.
• Flower pot: about 1.5 in / 4 cm tall.

Skill Level

Intermediate beginner to intermediate. The doll uses basic amigurumi rounds, color changes, surface crochet, embroidery, small appliques, and simple sewing. A confident beginner can complete it by working slowly and marking each round carefully.

Gauge

With a 2.25 mm hook and sport weight cotton yarn, 6 sc by 6 rounds should measure about 1 in / 2.5 cm. Exact gauge is less important than firm fabric. If stuffing shows through, use a smaller hook.

Important Construction Notes

• Work the head and body firmly so the large head keeps a smooth rounded shape.
• Stuff the head fully, especially around the cheeks and lower face.
• Stuff arms lightly so they hang naturally at the sides.
• Stuff legs firmly through the feet and calves so the doll stands or sits neatly.
• Pin all facial features before sewing. The image has a gentle centered face with a wide oval muzzle below the eyes.
• The ears are tall, slightly pointed, and sewn upright with a slight outward angle.
• The green overalls cover the torso and continue into short pant legs with turned cuffs.

Muzzle

Use caramel brown yarn. The muzzle in the image is a raised horizontal oval placed across the lower center of the face. Work around a foundation chain.

Nose and Mouth Details

Eyebrows

Use brown embroidery thread. Make one small curved stitch above each eye, around R15. Each eyebrow should be about 3 stitches wide. Angle them gently upward toward the center for the sweet handmade expression in the photo.

2. Change to white yarn.
3. Petals: (ch 4, starting in second ch from hook sc 1, hdc 1, sc 1, sl st in next yellow st) repeat 6 times.
4. FO with a long tail.

Flower Stems and Leaves

1. For each stem, with green yarn, ch 11, 13, or 15 for different heights.
2. Starting in second ch from hook, sl st in each ch across.
3. FO with tails for sewing.

For leaves, attach green yarn near the lower stem, ch 5, starting in second ch from hook sc 1, hdc 2, sc 1, then sl st back into the stem. Make one or two leaves per stem.

Sew each daisy to the top of a stem. Sew or insert the stems into the soil circle. Arrange the flowers at slightly different heights, with the tallest in the center and two shorter flowers at the sides.

White Daisy Appliques for Extra Garden Detail

Use these small appliques on the overalls or beside the doll if you want the floral look to appear fuller.

1. With yellow yarn, make 5 sc in MR and sl st to join.
2. Change to white yarn.
3. (ch 3, sc in second ch from hook, hdc in next ch, sl st in next center st) repeat 5 times.
4. FO with a sewing tail.

Keep the daisies tiny. Large flowers will overpower the scale of the overalls.

Making the Rabbit Face Look Like the Photo

• Keep the eyes close together and centered above the muzzle.
• Place the muzzle low enough to create large soft cheeks.
• Use a single vertical mouth line instead of a wide smile.
• Use pale pink blush lightly. The cheeks should look soft, not bright red.
• Make the eyebrows very small and curved.
• Check the face from a distance before tying off embroidery knots.

Final Assembly and Facial Detailing

1. Sew the head to the body using the white neck opening and the body’s 18-stitch top. Work around twice so the large head is secure.
2. Sew the ears to the top of the head. The bases should be strong enough to hold the ears upright.
3. Sew the arms to the sides of the body under the scarf line.
4. Sew the legs under the body, leaving a narrow center gap between the green shorts.
5. Attach the overall bib and straps. Add the two small brown buttons.
6. Add the striped scarf around the neck and secure it with hidden stitches.
7. Sew the sandals to the feet, then add the tiny flower buttons.
8. Sew the crossbody sunflower bag to the front-right side and tack the strap diagonally across the chest.
9. Embroider daisies and attach the tiny bee on the green overall leg.
10. Finish the face with eyebrows, cheek blush, whiskers, and the straight mouth line.

Place the hat, watering can, and flower pot beside the rabbit for the same garden display style as the image. The accessories are separate pieces, so they can be arranged for photos or play scenes.

Care Notes

• Spot clean with cool water and mild soap.
• Do not soak if you used blush powder, beads, wire, or glued details.
• Press gently with a towel to remove moisture.
• Air dry flat in a shaded place.
• Reshape the ears, scarf, hat brim, and flower stems while damp.

Quick Checklist Before You Finish

• The cheeks are soft pink with fine whisker stitches.
• The scarf has clear black-and-white stripes and hangs to one side.
• The overalls are green with a front bib, straps, buttons, shorts cuffs, daisies, and a bee.
• The sandals are brown with small flower details.
• The sunflower bag sits diagonally across the front.
• The hat has a wide straw brim, blue ribbon, and blue bow.
• The watering can has a handle and angled spout.
• The flower pot has three white daisies with yellow centers.

Detailed Cleaning and Preservation Guidelines

Store the doll in a dry place away from direct sunlight so the white yarn stays bright and the green overalls do not fade. Keep the hat brim flat when storing. Do not place heavy items on top of the ears, flower pot, or watering can.

For long-term display, dust the doll gently with a soft brush. If the scarf or bag strap shifts, smooth it back into place and secure it again with a small hidden stitch. Keep the accessories together in a small cotton bag when not displayed.

If the doll is made for a child, replace safety eyes and beads with embroidered eyes, skip wire in the accessories, and sew every small applique very firmly. Always check seams, buttons, flowers, and straps before giving the finished rabbit as a gift.
