About This Cute Bunny Comforter Pattern

This pattern creates a cute bunny comforter combining a small granny square blanket with a sweet amigurumi-style bunny head, ears and arms. You will work a simple granny square and crochet the bunny parts in continuous rounds and short rows for the ears. The design is baby-friendly when finished with yarn-sewn facial details and offers a portable, cuddly gift.

The pattern uses worsted/light 8ply yarn and a 5mm hook to create a soft, tactile comforter. Detailed rounds and notes are provided to help you shape the head, ears and arms accurately.

Why You'll Love This Cute Bunny Comforter Pattern

I absolutely love this pattern because it combines two classic crochet projects — a granny square and a small amigurumi — into one charming comforter. I enjoy how quickly the blanket grows and how satisfying the compact head shaping is to finish. The project is forgiving and fast, so I can make several as gifts in a short time. I also love that sewing the face with yarn makes the toy safe for babies, which gives me extra peace of mind when making it for little ones.

Switch Things Up

I love experimenting with color — try pastel shades for a softer baby lovey or bold contrasting colors for a playful look.

If you want a larger comforter, repeat additional granny square rounds until you reach the desired size.

Swap yarn weight and hook size to make a minisize keychain lovey or a jumbo snuggle blanket; just remember the head sizing will change.

I often change ear shapes: make longer or shorter ears by altering the row counts to create different personalities.

Instead of sewing a yarn face, you can embroider different expressions or add tiny felt features for a different finish.

Use a decorative border around the granny square — shells, picots, or a simple sc round adds a neat trim.

Try adding a ribbon or a small crocheted heart to the corner of the blanket for an extra special gift touch.

I sometimes use variegated yarn for the blanket to add visual interest without changing colors mid-project.

Make the arms removable by sewing them with a loop and button if you want a washable option or easier repairs.

For older children, add safety eyes and a sewn-on nose instead of yarn embroidery, but avoid safety eyes for baby-safe versions.

Common Mistakes & How to Fix Them

✗ Skipping stitch markers when working continuous rounds leads to lost stitch counts; place and move a marker at the start of each round to track rounds and maintain shape. ✗ Working too loosely on the head causes stuffing to show through the stitches; maintain a tighter tension for head pieces and use smaller hook if necessary. ✗ Forgetting to leave long tails makes assembly difficult later; always fasten off leaving a long tail for sewing head and ears to the blanket. ✗ Not stuffing the head firmly enough results in a floppy shape; stuff firmly but evenly while shaping so the head retains a smooth round appearance.

Assembly Instructions

  • Sew the head to the centre of the granny square blanket using the long tail left after fastening off Round 14; position centrally and use a whipstitch for a secure join.
  • Fold each ear lengthwise and sew the top of Row 21 together before attaching both ears to the top of the head for a neat finish.
  • Using the long tails left on the arms, sew each arm just beneath the head onto the blanket body so they lie across the front of the blanket.
  • Embroider the face with yarn using a darning needle to create safe, secure facial features suitable for babies.
  • Weave in all ends and tuck excess yarn inside seams before finishing to ensure a neat, baby-safe comforter.

Important Notes

  • 💡Use stitch markers and move them up at the start of each round when working in continuous spirals to keep track of rounds.
  • 💡Stuff the head firmly but evenly so the stuffing does not show through and the head keeps a smooth shape.
  • 💡Do not join rounds; work in continuous spirals as indicated to avoid visible seams in the head and arms.
  • 💡Leave long tails when fastening off key pieces (head, ears, arms) to make sewing parts together easier and more secure.

This adorable Cute Bunny Comforter pattern makes a perfect baby-safe keepsake or gift that is quick to crochet and full of charm. The combination of a granny square blanket with a sweet bunny head, ears and arms creates a comforting little pal to snuggle.
