Here’s how it works.
My newest free crochet toy pattern is this Adorable Baby Bunny Amigurumi. He’s hopped in for a visit with Spring Chick! They are both very excited because they just found out their friend, Little Lamb, has decided to join them!
This Spring Amigurumi Trio is here just in time for Easter.
Each project should take approximately 1 hour to crochet, so you can make all three, or more than one of each if you have a favorite, before the holiday arrives.
This amigurumi pattern uses only simple stitches. The entire project is crocheted in single crochet (sc) and sc2tog stitches only.

Poly-Fil is the only fiber fill I use for my crochet toys. It is clean, durable and perfect for my amigurumi projects.

Difficulty Level
Easy
Finished Sizes
Baby Bunny 3 inches tall X 2.25 inches wide
Gauge
Working with your 3.25 mm hook:
Approximately 5 sc stitches per 1 inch and 7 rows sc per 1 inch.
For crochet toy projects it is very important that you have tight stitches so the polyfil does not show between them. I have provided the gauge I attained with my yarn and hook but you can make your amigurumi in any yarn weight so long as you can adjust your hook size to have no spaces between the stitches. If you can see spaces between your stitches you need to try using a smaller hook, or crocheting with a tighter tension.
You can substitute any yarn and hook for this stitch pattern – just remember when you substitute if your gauge is different, the finished size, and amount of yarn used for your project will also be different.

Notes:
- We do not slip stitch to join. Please mark your place with a stitch marker.
- I use a DMR (double magic ring) to begin my projects that are worked in the round. You may substitute a magic ring (magic circle), or a chain 3 and slip to form a ring, if you prefer.
- When you work the sc2tog decreases work under the front loop only (it makes the stitch less thick).

Baby Bunny Crochet Toy Pattern
This sweet baby bunny is crocheted in continuous rounds, from the top-down.
Baby Bunny Body
Using your 3.25 mm (D) hook (or size required for gauge):
Rnd 1: Make a DMR and work 6 sc into the ring. [6 sc]
Rnd 2: 2 sc in each st around. [12 sc]
Rnd 3: *2 sc in the next st, 1 sc in the next st**. Work from * to ** around. [18 sc]
Rnd 4: *2 sc in the next st, 1 sc in each of the next 2 sts**. Work from * to ** around. [24 sc]
Rnd 5: *2 sc in the next st, 1 sc in each of the next 3 sts**. Work from * to ** around. [30 sc]
Rnd 6-Rnd 15: 1 sc in each st around. [30 sc]
Insert Safety Eyes between Rnd 7 and Rnd 8. I placed the eyes about 2.5 cm apart (you can see 4 sts between them). Fill your baby bunny with polyfil but do not overstuff. If you can see stuffing between your stitches you either need to put less stuffing in OR you need to make the bunny with a smaller hook size to tighten up your gauge.
Rnd 16: *Sc2tog, 1 sc in each of the next 3 sts**. Work from * to ** around. [24 sc]
Rnd 17: *Sc2tog, 1 sc in each of the next 2 sts**. Work from * to ** around. [18 sc]
Rnd 18: *Sc2tog, 1 sc in the next st**. Work from * to ** around. [12 sc]
Rnd 19: Sc2tog around. [6 sc]
Finish off leaving a 4 to 5 inch tail of yarn for closing. Follow this tutorial to close the last round of stitches neatly.
Baby Bunny Arms
(Make 2)
The arms begin with a foundation chain. We work across the chain like normal then rotate our work to crochet across the base of the chain to our starting point. This creates an oval shape.
With your 2.25 mm crochet hook (or size required for gauge):
Rnd 1: Ch 4, sk the first ch, 1 sc in each of the next 2 chs, 2 sc in the last ch. Rotate your work to crochet along the base of the foundation chain. You have already worked 2 sc in the last ch so we skip the base of it. 1 sc in each of the next 2 chs. [6 sc]
Rnd 2: 1 sc in each st around. [6 sc]
Finish off, leaving a 4-5 inch tail of yarn for sewing the arms to the bunny.
Baby Bunny Legs
(Make 2)
The legs are made the same as the arms but with the large hook and extra repeat rounds.
With your 3.25 mm crochet hook (or size required for gauge):
Rnd 1: Ch 4, sk the first ch, 1 sc in each of the next 2 chs, 2 sc in the last ch. Rotate your work to crochet along the base of the foundation chain. You have already worked 2 sc in the last ch so we skip the base of it. 1 sc in each of the next 2 chs. [6 sc]
Rnd 2-Rnd 4: 1 sc in each st around. [6 sc]
Finish off, leaving a 4-5 inch tail of yarn for sewing the beak to the bunny.
Baby Bunny Ears
(Make 2)
The bunny ears are made the same as the arms but with more repeat rounds.
With your 2.25 mm crochet hook (or size required for gauge):
Rnd 1: Ch 4, sk the first ch, 1 sc in each of the next 2 chs, 2 sc in the last ch. Rotate your work to crochet along the base of the foundation chain. You have already worked 2 sc in the last ch so we skip the base of it. 1 sc in each of the next 2 chs. [6 sc]
Rnd 2-Rnd 7: 1 sc in each st around. [6 sc]
Finish off leaving a 4-5 inch tail of yarn for sewing the feet to the bunny.
Finishing Instructions:
- Please see the following image for placement. Use your small tapestry needle to sew the arms, legs and ears to your baby bunny crochet toy.
- Use a small amount of pink (Rose Quartz) yarn to sew 3 stitches on each cheek.
- Sew the “T” for the nose with a small amount of black (Black Onyx) yarn.
- I used a dab of hot-glue to attach the small pom-pom to the backside of the bunny.
- Weave in any remaining ends securely.
