Free Crochet BUNNY AMIGURUMI Pattern You Will Love

What I really adore about this bunny amigurumi is its soft and cuddly texture, thanks to using smooth yarn and tight stitches. It has a round, plump body and big floppy ears that give it an adorable, friendly style. The pattern captures the bunny’s sweet personality with simple details like embroidered eyes and a tiny nose, making it perfect as a gentle companion. Its small size fits perfectly in your hands or on a shelf, adding a charming handmade touch wherever it’s placed.

This project is great for beginners and intermediate crocheters alike. The main stitch used is the single crochet, worked in continuous rounds—a staple technique in amigurumi that helps keep the shape nice and even. If you’re new to crocheting toys, this pattern is a wonderful way to practice shaping and simple embroidery. You’ll find that keeping your tension consistent and stuffing lightly but firmly makes all the difference in how the bunny looks and feels.

Amigurumi Bunny – Step-by-Step Crochet Pattern

This amigurumi bunny pattern creates a cute, huggable bunny with classic long ears and simple stitched facial features. The body and head are worked as one seamless piece, with separate arms, legs, and ears that are attached afterward. Using only basic crochet stitches and techniques, you’ll follow clear, counted rounds for consistent amigurumi shaping. Finish with embroidered features or safety eyes for maximum charm!


Pattern Notes

  • All rounds are worked in a continuous spiral (do not join or turn unless otherwise noted). Always use a stitch marker or safety pin to keep track of the last stitch of each round.
  • Stuff pieces as you go for smooth shape.
  • All increases are (2 sc in same stitch), all decreases are invisible decreases unless otherwise stated.
  • When switching colors (if you choose), pull through new yarn on the last loop of the last stitch of the old color.
  • Ears, arms, and legs are made separately and sewn to the body for security and poseability.
  • If using safety eyes, always attach them before the head opening becomes too small.
