Why You'll Love This Bunny with Basket Amigurumi Pattern

I absolutely love this pattern because it brings together tiny accessories and a sweet character in one compact project. I enjoy adding the little basket and egg — those finishing touches give the bunny character and personality. I also love that the hat and flower make the doll feel custom and hand-finished. The pattern balances simple rounds with small shaping, so I can relax while still making something special.

Switch Things Up

I love how easily this pattern can be customized with color changes to create different looks; switch the hat and shorts colors for new personalities.

I often change yarn weight and hook size to make mini keychain versions or larger plushies — bulky yarn and a larger hook makes a cuddlier toy.

I like to embroider different facial expressions for variety; moving the eyes or altering mouth placement completely changes the character.

For seasonal versions, I’ll swap the egg colors and add tiny embroidered patterns on the egg to match holidays or events.

I sometimes replace safety eyes with embroidered eyes for a toddler-safe toy; this keeps the face secure and child-friendly.

Try adding wire inside the limbs for poseable arms if you want a display piece that can hold the basket in different positions.

Add tiny crocheted props like a scarf, tiny carrots, or a headband to expand play possibilities and make it more unique.

Feel free to use variegated or speckled yarns for the shorts or hat to create textured, colorful effects without changing stitches.

I often use buttons or small beads as extra decoration on the shorts strap — just be sure to sew them on very securely if the toy is for a child.

Experiment with different flower styles for the hat: larger petals, layered flowers, or beaded centers all make charming variations.

Common Mistakes & How to Fix Them

✗ Skipping stitch markers during continuous rounds leads to losing track of the round start; place a marker at the first stitch of every round to stay on track. ✗ Forgetting to stuff gradually causes lumps and uneven shaping; stuff small amounts at a time and shape as you go for a smooth finish. ✗ Placing safety eyes after too many rounds can misposition them; add the safety eyes between the recommended rounds (rnd 13-14 for the head) and check spacing before securing. ✗ Pulling yarn too tightly when joining parts will distort the shape; use gentle, even tension and pin pieces in place before sewing to ensure correct positioning.

Assembly Instructions

  • Sew sleeves (arms) to both sides of the body at around round 27, positioning them symmetrically and securing firmly with a whipstitch.
  • Attach the head to the body opening, aligning the neck opening to the top of the body and sewing with a mattress or whipstitch using the long tail left from the head.
  • Position and sew the ears on top of the hat at around hat rnd-3, then sew the hat onto the head if desired, or place it as a removable accessory.
  • Sew the small flower and leaf to the top of the hat using the long thread ends left from those pieces, stitching securely so they sit flat.
  • Assemble and stuff the legs before joining; sew the legs to the bottom of the body ensuring even spacing and stable attachment.
  • Attach the basket strap by chaining 30 (rnd 11) and securing ends inside the basket; sew the basket onto the arm or position as a removable accessory.

Important Notes

  • 💡Place safety eyes between rounds 13-14 of the head with 9 single crochets between them for correct facial placement.
  • 💡Keep stuffing the head and body tightly but in small amounts as you work to maintain smooth shaping and avoid lumps.
  • 💡Use stitch markers to mark the start of each round when working in continuous spirals for accurate stitch counts.
  • 💡Pin all pieces in place before sewing to check positioning and symmetry, adjusting as needed for best appearance.
