Bunnies are cute and fluffy animals that everyone loves, especially little kids, but it’s not always possible for people to have rabbits as pets. So why not do the next best thing and crochet a bunny?
Crochet amigurumi bunnies are so adorable. Not only are they handmade, they can be customized and personalized to fit whoever it is being made for. That’s why these crochet toys make great gifts for kids for any occasion – birthdays, baby showers, Christmas, and every other special occasion you can think of.
If you are wondering how you crochet a simple bunny, you will find a lot of free patterns and tutorials in this list that will show you how to make some cute crochet bunnies.
Can a Beginner Make a Crochet Bunny?
Of course! Here you will find a great collection of amigurumi crochet bunnies, as well as a lot of non-amigurumi crochet bunny patterns you can make.
Even if you are a beginner, if you have a good grasp of the basic crochet skills, you will be able to make any of the crochet patterns below.
Stitches and Techniques
To be able to make these crochet bunny patterns, you will need to know some basic crochet skills and techniques.
For stitches, you will need to know how to make a single crochet stitch (sc), half double crochet stitch (hdc), and double crochet stitch (dc). You should also know how to make chain stitches (ch) and slip stitches (sl st).
If you are making amigurumi crochet bunnies, you will also need to know how to make the magic circle or magic ring. This technique is commonly used if you are crocheting in the round. Amigurumi is usually done in continuous or spiral rounds, meaning you will not slip stitch to join at the end of each round.
You should also know how to make a single crochet increase (inc) and an invisible decrease (dec) to help create a seamless look to your amigurumi crochet bunnies. If any of these skills are new to you, our Amigurumi workshop will teach you everything you need to know.
Supplies to Make Crochet Bunnies
To start making these crochet bunny patterns, you will need to prepare your basic crochet supplies such as your yarn, crochet hook, yarn needle, and scissors.
If you will be making amigurumi crochet bunnies, you will also need some fiberfill stuffing, safety eyes and safety noses. If you are making these crochet toys for kids, you can use embroidery thread or a thinner yarn weight to add the face details instead. You will also need some pins to help you hold the pieces together before sewing, and a stitch marker to help you keep track of the end of your rounds.
Free Crochet Bunny Patterns
These free crochet patterns include projects that are great for crocheters of any skill level. You will find not just amigurumi crochet bunnies, but also other bunny-inspired crochet projects that any bunny will enjoy.
