Why You'll Love This Bunny in carrot Amigurumi Pattern

I absolutely love this pattern because it combines soft plush textures with classic amigurumi shaping to create an irresistibly cute toy. I enjoy how compact and gift-ready the finished carrot makes the bunny—it's perfect for presenting as a small handmade surprise. The pattern is simple enough to follow while still offering satisfying shaping through increases and decreases. As a maker, I appreciate the clear assembly steps and helpful tips that make sewing and finishing fast and neat. It always brings me joy to see the character appear as you sew on the ears and embroider the tiny nose.

Switch Things Up

I love customizing this pattern by changing yarn colors to create different personalities for the bunny; pastel colors make a sweet baby-friendly version while bright tones create a playful look.

You can make the bunny smaller or larger by changing yarn weight and hook size—use finer yarn and a smaller hook for a keychain-sized bunny or bulky yarn for a cuddly, chunky toy.

Try embroidering different facial expressions by moving the eyebrows and nose placement; a slightly higher nose and narrower eyebrows creates a cheeky smile.

Swap the button on the carrot for a small snap or velcro to make the flap functional for little hands to open and close easily.

I often add tiny accessories like a crocheted scarf, a little bow, or a tiny flower sewn to the carrot for seasonal variations.

For sturdier limbs, you can insert thin wire inside the arms or legs before stuffing to make them poseable; just be sure to wrap wire ends safely inside stuffing.

Make a whole family by varying yarn and eye sizes—different colored bunnies tucked into differently sized carrots look adorable as a set.

Try adding safety eyes of different sizes or embroidered eyes for a softer, child-safe option—just adjust placement to maintain proportion.

If you want a weighted base so the carrot sits upright, add a small pouch of poly pellets at the bottom of the carrot before closing the final rounds.

I sometimes stitch on tiny felt details like cheeks or a tiny felt flower for extra texture; hot glue or hand stitch these securely for durability.

Common Mistakes & How to Fix Them

✗ Inserting safety eyes at the wrong round causes misplacement; insert safety eyes between rounds 8 and 9 with 5 stitches between to ensure correct placement. ✗ Understuffing the body and neck can cause the head to dangle awkwardly; stuff the body and neck firmly and sew the head on twice to secure it. ✗ Crocheting too loosely with plush yarn may allow stuffing to show through; maintain tight stitches and use the recommended hook sizes for best coverage. ✗ Forgetting to count stitches after increases or decreases leads to uneven shaping; count stitches at the end of each round to confirm the correct stitch total. ✗ Sewing limbs in inconsistent positions will create an unbalanced toy; pin arms and legs in place and check symmetry before sewing securely. ✗ Skipping the buttonhole chain in the carrot will break the closure; follow rounds 16-17 carefully to create the buttonhole and check the fit before finishing.

— Skill level :

Info :

Easy. Basic crocheting skills required. You can use any yarn to make this amigurumi. For example, if you use a smaller hook and a suitable yarn, the toy will be smaller while maintaining the same proportions.

— Finished Measurements :

Info :

Approximately 4 in/10 cm high without ears and 6 in/15 cm high with ears using original yarn and hook B/2 (2.5 mm).

— Crochet Abbreviations (US terminology) :

Infos :

dc - double crochet. dec – decrease. inc – increase. rep – repeat. rnd(s) - round(s). sc – single crochet. sl st – slip stitch. st(s) - stitch(s). () - rep the content of the parenthesis as many times as the number after parenthesis says. The number after = is the total number of stitches in the rnd.

— Beginning :

Info :

All pieces are worked in a spiral continuously. This means that you do not end the rnd with a slip stitch and do not start a rnd with a chain. I start working every piece from a magic ring but you can ch2 and work the necessary number of sc in the second st from the hook. You should crochet tight enough to prevent stuffing from sticking out.

Assembly Instructions

  • Insert safety eyes between rounds 8 and 9 of the head with 5 stitches in between, or attach sewn eyes before stuffing to secure them.
  • Sew the head to the body by matching round 13 of the head to the stitches from round 11 of the body; stuff neck and body firmly and sew twice to prevent the head from dangling.
  • Position and sew arms between rounds 10 and 11 of the body, angling them slightly as shown in the photos, and secure with tight stitches for durability.
  • Attach legs to the body between rounds 3 and 4 of the body, making sure to insert the needle in the same places on each leg to keep limbs flexible and symmetrical.
  • Sew the tail to the body between rounds 2 and 5 of the body, then sew the belly to the body between rounds 3 and 11 ensuring it sits centered.
  • Sew ears to the top of the head and make a couple of stitches to secure them together; sew the muzzle between rounds 8 and 13 of the head and embroider nose and eyebrows as directed.

Important Notes

  • 💡Use stitch markers to keep track of your rounds, especially when working increases and decreases in spiral rounds.
  • 💡Stuff firmly but not overly tight to preserve shape; overstuffing can distort the amigurumi and under stuffing can cause the head to wobble.
  • 💡Insert safety eyes before completing round 13 of the head (between rounds 8 and 9) to guarantee correct placement and security.
  • 💡Sew the head to the body twice and reinforce the neck area to prevent the head from dangling during play.
  • 💡Pin parts in place and check symmetry before sewing to ensure balanced placement of limbs and facial features.

This cute Bunny in Carrot makes a delightful handmade gift that fits in the palm of your hand. The pattern uses soft plush yarn for the carrot and cotton yarn for the bunny, creating charming texture contrast. 🧶🧡 Finish, embroider, and attach a small button to make your toy extra special! ✨

FAQs

What size will the finished piece be?

The finished amigurumi measures approximately 4 in/10 cm high without ears and 6 in/15 cm high with ears when using the recommended yarns and hook B/2 (2.5 mm).

Can I use different yarn weights for this pattern?

Yes, you can substitute yarns, but the size will change. Use a suitable hook for your chosen yarn and check gauge; plush yarn creates a softer, chunkier carrot while cotton works well for the bunny.

Do I need prior crochet experience for this pattern?

This pattern is beginner friendly, but you should be familiar with basic stitches (sc, inc, dec) and working in a continuous spiral. The pattern includes clear rounds and assembly instructions.

How long does this project typically take to complete?

Most crocheters complete this project in 2-3 hours, though time may vary based on experience level, yarn choice, and assembly detail.

How should I attach the button and make the buttonhole on the carrot?

Create the buttonhole by following rounds 16-17 (ch 24 and skip ch 6 for the buttonhole). Sew the button in the middle between rounds 13 and 14 once the carrot dimensions fit the bunny.
