Sweet bunny amigurumi crochet pattern
Years ago, my first paid commission was to create eight original animal amigurumi patterns that were to be completed within two weeks, and each pattern was required to be 12cm tall.
Today I’ll be exploring the first one – The rabbit plushie and the changes I made to make the pattern easier and more detailed.
Discover all the tools, techniques, and materials you need and follow step-by-step instructions to ensure your final product looks perfect and cuddly.

What should you know before starting an amigurumi? Tips for Success!
Bellow, You’ll find some tips and tricks to avoid the mistakes all beginner crocheters make with their first amigurumi.
What type of yarn should I use for an amigurumi project?
If you’re looking to make an adorable crochet bunny amigurumi, you may think the type of yarn you use doesn’t matter, but you’d be wrong!
Different yarn weights provide different textures and looks, opening up even more options for your adorable bunnies.
Whether you’re looking for something lightweight or heavier, fluffy or soft, DK weight, worsted weight, bulky weight, or velvet yarn, the Amigurumi bunny pattern is designed to fit them all.
Using the same pattern years ago, I crocheted a 12 cm bunny with mercerized cotton yarn, and today’s bunny using velvet yarn is 31 cm in height.
Keep in mind using different weights of yarn will result in different finished sizes for your stuffed rabbit.

How to choose the perfect hook size for an amigurumi?
One of the most important factors for the success of the amigurumi is using the correct size hook. However, choosing the right hook can be tricky.
Keeping the stitches’ size consistent when choosing a crochet hook for an amigurumi project is the most important factor. Consider the yarn you’ll be using, practice different hook sizes to find your comfort zone, and read the pattern carefully for instructions.
By using a small hook, rather than the crochet hook recommended on the yarn’s label, you’ll be able to produce the tight stitches necessary for a successful amigurumi project.

What does tight stitch mean?
What are we talking about when we hear “tight stitch”? How exactly does a tight stitch help create durable and sturdy amigurumi?
It makes the project look better and prevents the stuffing from showing through the stitches. It is not the easiest thing to learn, and it does take some practice to master, but it is worth the effort.
Once you gain a bit of practice and experience, you’ll find that getting tight stitch becomes easier and more natural—allowing you to enjoy your crafting experience truly. The extra effort to create a tight stitch pays off with durable, sturdy, and time-resistant amigurumi pieces.
By learning to achieve the perfect tight stitch, you will be rewarded with a high-quality finished product that you can be proud of.

How to perfectly stuff an amigurumi?
Discovering the perfect balance between support and plushness is essential to creating the perfect amigurumi. Many first-time amigurumi makers find themselves struggling to get that ideal consistency.

For a perfectly-shaped stuffed animal, start with polyester polyfill, and add it in small, evenly-distributed pieces. This will take time, but the result will be worth it. When stuffing, make sure to get it nice and firm but not too hard; the body needs to be well stuffed so it stands when you attach the head and ears.
With this method, your crochet amigurumi will look amazing!

Tips and Tricks when working with Velvet yarn
To begin your amigurumi crochet project, tie a tight knot at the end of the yarn. Don’t forget to tie another knot when you’re finished and cut the yarn – it’ll ensure that everything stays secure.
What type of yarn is velvet yarn?
Velvet is a lush 100% polyester yarn that is extra soft.
What weight is Velvet Yarn?
Velvet yarn comes in weights, from thinner to super bulky ones, like the one I used for the crochet bunny pattern.
What is velvet yarn good for?
Because of the velvet yarn’s thickness, woolliness, and super softness, it is suitable for all types of crochet and knitting projects.
Velvet yarn is microfiber, ideal for baby and children’s products and soft toys such as the crochet bunny.

Is velvet yarn hard to crochet?
Depending on the type of velvet yarn you use, it can take some getting used to when crocheting with it. Some velvet yarns have a slippery texture. Additionally, using a stitch marker, such as a safety pin or yarn tail, can help you track your stitches. With practice, crocheting with velvet yarn can be a rewarding and satisfying experience.

The pattern is worked in continuous rounds that’s why it is better to use a stitch marker to indicate your first stitch and keep track of it.
For all the decreases, I used the invisible decrease method. If you are a beginner, check the five tips you should know for an amigurumi as a beginner.

Finishing Your Bunny amigurumi
Bring your crochet amigurumi to life by sewing its parts together! Start by securely attaching the head to the body. For a stronger hold, make sure to insert your needle through both loops of the body’s last round and each stitch of the head.

How to make a nose for stuffed animals?
The first step is to insert the needle from back to front in the middle of the eyes.

Then insert your needle under the eyes from left to right.

Then insert the needle from right to bottom middle spot

Continue repeating these steps till you fill the nose.

Using the same method, make the mouth, FO, and secure with a knot.

Finishing touches of the bunny amigurumi
After you have all the parts finished, it is time for the last finishing touches. To make the facial expression more realistic, we will use the amigurumi technique for the eyes and the chicks.

Take a piece of yarn and insert the needle next to the safety eye from the back to the front and from right to left and pull the needle at the back side of the head. Then repeat the same for the other eye.

You will have two strands of yarn at the back side of the head, secure them with a knot and weave the tails in.
Repeat the same steps for the chicks, but this time pull the needle from the bottom of the head, secure it with a knot, and weave the tails in.

In the end, you must have a cute and realistic-looking bunny plushie head.

Then sew the head on top of the body. Don’t forget to stuff the body well so that it can stand when the head is attached.

How to sew all the parts together for bunny amigurumi?
Sew the hands on both sides under the head.
Sew the feet on both sides of the bottom part of the body.
Sew ears on top of the head.
Sew the tail on the bottom backside of the bunny’s body.

Typos: should be cheeks, not chicks
I’m having a problem with the chain count for the head.
I chain 11 chains like it says, sc in 2nd chain from hook, which leaves 10 chains left. Then sc in the next 8 chains, leaves 2 chains left. So where does the 2sc in the next 3 chains go?
Thanks for pattern and help.
Carol
Hello, when you start with 11 chains and make sc in 2nd chain you have 9 chains left not 10. Then make sc in next 8. you have one last left and you will make 2 sc in it.
I have corrected the pattern. It is 3 sc in next st,NOT 2 sc in next 3 sts.!
Help. I am confused with making the head. No magic circle? Chain 11. Do you connect. ?? Help
Help. I am confused with making the head. No magic circle? Chain 11. Do you connect. ??
No, you work around the chain.
Help. I am confused with making the head. No magic circle? Chain 11. Do you connect. ??
No, we work in continuous rounds. Use a stitch marker to indicate your first st, so this way you know the beginning of the round and will not skip or get confused with your stitches.
I need help. I end up with 24 stitches at the end of round 1. Any idea what I’m doing wron
What does sc1 and sc2 mean? Is that an increase?
it means sc in next st and sc in next 2 sts, I corrected the pattern. Thanks for the feedback!
I end up with 24 stitches for round 1 no matter what I try. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
In rnd 1 for the head – it is not 2 sc in next 3 sts, it is 3 sc in next st and this way we have 22 sts.
When I make the eyes indented this is very noticeable in the back of the head. It leaves divits.
