Important Crochet Notes

Work in continuous rounds without joining or turning unless the instructions specifically tell you otherwise. Place a stitch marker at the beginning of each round so you can easily keep track of your position.

When stuffing the bunny, add the fiberfill gradually and firmly enough to maintain the shape without stretching the stitches. If you notice gaps between your stitches, try using a smaller crochet hook to prevent the stuffing from showing through.

Step-by-Step Crochet Instructions

1. Crochet the Arms — Make 2

Lightly stuff each arm as you crochet.

Round 1: Make 5 sc into a magic ring. (5 sts)
Round 2: Inc in every stitch around. (10 sts)
Rounds 3–4: Sc in each stitch around. (10 sts)
Round 5: Repeat [3 sc, dec] twice. (8 sts)
Round 6: Sc in each stitch around. (8 sts)
Round 7: Repeat [2 sc, dec] twice. (6 sts)
Rounds 8–10: Sc in each stitch around. (6 sts)

Fasten off the first arm. Make the second arm in the same way, but leave the yarn attached because it will be joined to the body later.

2. Crochet the Legs and Body

Make 2 Legs

Round 1: Ch 9. Starting in the fourth chain from the hook, work 2 dc in the same stitch, 4 dc, then 6 dc in the final chain. Continue along the opposite side of the starting chain with 4 dc, followed by 2 dc in the final stitch. Finish with a sl st. (19 sts)
Round 2: Work 1 sc in the BLO of each stitch around. (19 sts)
Round 3: Sc in each stitch around. (19 sts)
Round 4: Work 5 sc, 4 dec, and 6 sc. (15 sts)
Round 5: Repeat [1 sc, dec] five times. (10 sts)
Rounds 6–10: Sc in each stitch around. (10 sts)

Fasten off the first leg. Crochet the second leg using the same instructions, but do not fasten off the yarn.

Firmly stuff both legs before joining them together.

Join the Legs and Shape the Body

Round 11: Ch 2. Work 10 sc around the first leg, 2 sc across the chain bridge, 10 sc around the second leg, then 2 sc along the opposite side of the chain. (24 sts)
Round 12: Repeat [2 sc, inc] eight times. (32 sts)
Rounds 13–18: Sc in each stitch around. (32 sts)
Round 19: Repeat [2 sc, dec] eight times. (24 sts)
Round 20: Repeat [1 sc, dec] eight times. (16 sts)

Attach the Arms

Position the bunny so that the beginning of the round is centered on the side of the body. If necessary, add or remove a few stitches so your marker sits directly at the side.

Round 21: Work 3 sc through both the first arm and body at the same time, 4 sc across the front of the body, 3 sc through both the second arm and body, then 6 sc across the back. (16 sts)
Round 22: Work 3 sc across the exposed stitches of the first arm, 4 sc across the body, 3 sc across the second arm, and 6 sc across the back. (16 sts)
Round 23: Repeat [2 sc, dec] four times. (12 sts)
Round 24: Sc in each stitch around. (12 sts)

3. Crochet the Head

Continue directly from the top of the body into the head.

Round 25: Inc in every stitch around. (24 sts)
Round 26: Repeat [1 sc, inc] around. (36 sts)
Rounds 27–32: Sc in each stitch around. (36 sts)
Round 33: Repeat [4 sc, dec] around. (30 sts)
Round 34: Sc in each stitch around. (30 sts)
Round 35: Repeat [3 sc, dec] around. (24 sts)
Rounds 36–37: Sc in each stitch around. (24 sts)
Round 38: Repeat [2 sc, dec] around. (18 sts)

Fasten off and weave the yarn tail neatly into the finished piece.

Round 1: Make 5 sc into a magic ring. (5 sts)
Round 2: Inc in every stitch around. (10 sts)
Round 3: Sc in each stitch around. (10 sts)

Round 25: Repeat [2 sc, dec] five times. (15 sts)
Round 26: Repeat [1 sc, dec] five times. (10 sts)
Round 27: Work 5 consecutive decreases. (5 sts)

Flatten the opening of each ear so the two sides line up. Crochet sc through both layers to close the base. Fasten off and leave a long enough yarn tail for sewing the ear onto the head.

Assembly and Finishing

Add the Face

Insert the 10 mm safety eyes between Rounds 33 and 34 of the head. For extra security and a neat finish, place small pieces of white felt behind the eyes before securing them.

Embroider the Face

Using black yarn, carefully embroider a small nose and a gentle smiling mouth. Center the details between the two eyes to give your bunny its sweet expression.

Add the Inner Ears

Cut two matching inner-ear pieces from pink felt. Secure them to the flat inner surface of each crocheted ear using glue or by sewing them in place.

Once the felt is securely attached, sew both ears to the top of the bunny’s head.

Add the Heart

Finish your Easter bunny by cutting a small heart from red felt. Attach it securely to the center of the bunny’s chest to create its signature festive accent.

Your adorable blue Easter bunny is now complete and ready to brighten up your Easter celebrations, spring decorations, or handmade gift collection!
