Free Crochet Bunny Rabbit Pattern

Free Crochet Bunny Pattern

This sweet free crochet bunny rabbit pattern is so perfect to make for Easter (or any time really!) I love the floppy little ears and the simple details. The yarn I used makes it super soft and cuddly. I used Bernat Baby Velvet yarn, but if you can’t find it in the shade you are looking for, the regular velvet seemed to be very similar. I am sure you will adore making a cute little bunny!

Tail
Use a pom pom maker of your choice (I very highly recommend Clover Pom Pom makers. I used the yellow one.)
Using only one half of the pom pom maker, make half the pom pom. Tie it off and sew to the bunny’s bum.

Flowers
*If you want them to be removable, using green yarn, chain a long enough chain to wrap around the head and then tie. Attach the flowers to this.*

In a magic circle SC 5. Slip stitch to the first stitch. *Chain 5. Slip stitch in the same stitch. Slip stitch over the next.* Repeat * * 4 more times for a total of 5 petals. I made 6 for this little bunny.

If you want some greenery with the flowers, I made really simple “leaves” by chaining 7 and then HDC in each chain across, fastening off and attaching them with the flowers.
