Free crochet easter basket pattern: a Bunny in an Easter Basket amigurumi, about 16 cm tall in DK yarn with a 2.5 mm hook. A white bunny with tall ears and pink cheeks sits in a pink and white striped basket with three striped eggs, and a tiny yellow chick perches between its ears. You need about 130 m of yarn: 75 m white, 20 m pink, 10 m rose, 5 m cream, 5 m mint, 5 m yellow, 5 m lilac and 5 m orange. Plan on roughly 4 hours. Make it as an Easter centrepiece or a gift for a bunny lover. Spin the 3D model to see all the eggs and follow the round-by-round pattern.

How to crochet the Bunny in an Easter Basket

Advanced · 17 cm tall · about 4 h · DK yarn · 2.5 mm hook

  1. Crochet the 14 pieces in rounds: Basket, Body, Head, Ear ×2, Chick, Beak, Paw ×2, Egg, Lilac egg, Yellow egg, Cheek ×2 (138 rounds in all).
  2. Stuff and put it together in 11 steps; each one lights up where it goes on the 3D model.
  3. Add the face: safety eyes by round and stitch, or embroider them for a child under 3.

Every round with its stitch count is in the Pattern tab below, and in the free printable PDF.

Safety eyes and noses go in before the piece is stuffed and closed (see the pieces above); embroidery is easier before the piece is sewn on.

  • Safety eyes with a printed glint 10–12 mm (on the head): between rounds 12 and 13, 8 st apart (count along round 12: about 3.9 st each side of the centre front line).
  • Satin stitch (on the head): in rose thread, a oval about 5 mm wide and 3.6 mm tall, horizontal stitches; centred in round 14, on the centre front line .
  • Embroidery in dark brown thread (on the head), straight stitches through: (between rounds 14 and 15, on the centre front line ) → (between rounds 15 and 16, on the centre front line ) → (between rounds 15 and 16, 0.5 st from the centre front line, toward the toy's right ) → (between rounds 15 and 16, 1 st from the centre front line, toward the toy's right ).
