Super Easy Cute And Cuddly Crochet Bunny Amigurumi Pattern

Step-by-Step Crochet Pattern for an Easter Bunny

Materials Needed:

• Cotton yarn (medium thickness)
• Hook (one size smaller than recommended for the yarn, e.g., 3.5mm for 5mm yarn)
• Another type of yarn for the pom-pom (tail)
• Filling material (natural or synthetic)
• Yarn needle
• Scissors
• Fork (for making the pom-pom)

Create the Square:

• Start with a slip knot.
• Crochet as many chains as needed to reach 10 cm (for the example, it took 18 chains, but this may vary).
• Make an extra chain, then single crochet into the second chain from the hook.
• Continue making a single crochet in each chain until you reach the end of the row.
• Make one chain, turn the project, and single crochet in each stitch across.
• Repeat until the square reaches 10 cm by 10 cm (or your desired size).

Prepare the Needlework:

• Cut the yarn and remove the hook.
• Use a yarn needle to hide the final thread inside the project stitches, then cut close to the base.
• Cut a piece of yarn about 40 cm long.
• Fold the square in half to find the center row, then thread the needle and stitch along this central row.

Form the Bunny’s Head:

• After finishing the central stripe, mark the center at the top of the square.
• Stitch two sides of a triangle connecting to the top-center and the two bottom points of the square.
• Place a ball of filling in the center of the triangle.
• Pull tightly on both threads to close the triangle, forming the head and ears.
• Sew from one ear to the other and down the center between the ears to close the head tightly, then secure with a couple of stitches.

Shape the Bunny’s Body:

• Using the longer thread, sew along one side up to the midpoint of the square, then fold the open half inside.
• Adjust the folded part so the stomach is slightly recessed, giving the back more prominence.
• Continue sewing the body, stopping when only a few stitches are left to add the final batch of filling.
• Add the remaining filling to the body and sew the remaining stitches.

• Hide the final thread inside the bunny’s body and cut close to the base.

Make and Attach the Tail:

• Create a mini pom-pom using a fork by wrapping the yarn around the fork multiple times.
• Tie the center with a longer piece of thread and cut the loops on both sides.
• Give the pom-pom a haircut to make it fluffy.
• Attach the pom-pom to the back of the bunny, hiding the threads inside the body.

Finishing Touches:

• Adjust the filling as needed to shape the bunny.
• Optionally, add facial features or leave the bunny as it is.
