Step-by-Step Instructions
I will be dividing this easy crochet bunny pattern into 3 sections:
- Ears
- Head
- Putting it together
1: Ears
Let’s start with the ears. Make 2 of these!
7 CH, go back 2 chains, 2 SC, 2 HDC, DC, (6 DC), DC, 2 HDC, 2 SC
Leave a long tail for sewing. You will need it when we put everything together later.
2: Head
Next, let’s work on the head of the bunny. Think of it as creating an oval shape, but without the classic magic ring. It gives the head a really clean, rounded look!
1: 7 CH, go back 2 chains, 5 SC, W, 4 SC, V, SL ST
2: CH, V, 4 SC, 3 V, 4 SC, 2 V, SL ST
3: CH, (SC, V), 4 SC, 3 (SC, V), 4 SC, 2 (SC, V), SL ST
4: CH, 26 SC. SL ST
5: CH, (SC, A), 4 SC, 3 (SC, A), 4 SC, 2 (SC, A), SL ST
6: CH, A, 4 SC, 3 A, 4 SC, 2 A, SL ST
7: CH, 14 SC. SL ST
Once you finish Row 7, add your stuffing and sew it closed. Take your time here. Getting a nice, even shape makes the final bunny look so much cuter!
3: Putting It Together
Now for the fun part… assembling everything!
First, sew the ears onto the head. I like to sew them right at the spot where I closed the head, so the whole thing looks neat and clean. Here’s how the final result looks:
If you would like, you can also attach a keychain to turn it into a crochet bunny keychain. I added one with a bell and color-matched it to the yarn. It makes it look extra cute and put-together!
And that’s it, your small bunny is complete! I hope you enjoyed this free crochet bunny pattern as much as I loved making it. Whether you are keeping it for yourself or gifting it, this little bunny makes such a sweet charm. If you make one, I would love to see it!
