Meet the Spring Bunny: A Sweet and Floppy-Eared Amigurumi Friend

Hello, lovely hooksters! Spring is in the air, and what better way to celebrate than by welcoming a new floppy-eared friend into your home? Today, I’m absolutely delighted to share this precious Spring Bunny pattern from the incredibly talented Lyusya Rozonova (@lucy_rose_toys). With her sweet expression, poseable limbs, and the cutest little tail, she’s the kind of bunny that makes you smile just by looking at her.

There’s something so magical about bunnies, isn’t there? They’re gentle, curious, and remind us of new beginnings and fresh starts—perfect for springtime! This little bunny captures all of that sweetness in a beautifully crafted amigurumi form. Whether you’re making her as an Easter gift, a nursery companion, or just because you need a little bunny love in your life, she’s sure to become a treasured friend.

What I love most about this pattern is the attention to detail. The ears have a lovely gentle taper, the limbs are designed with a special stitch to create adorable little feet, and the shaping of the body gives this bunny such a sweet, sitting posture. You can even use thread or button joints to make the arms and legs movable—how fun is that? Plus, that little pom-pom tail is just the perfect finishing touch!

This pattern is wonderfully accessible for adventurous beginners and intermediate crocheters alike. You’ll practice working in rounds, shaping with increases and decreases, and assembling multiple parts. The result is a bunny that stands about 11.5–12.5 cm tall (depending on your yarn choice)—the perfect size for little hands to hold and big hearts to love.

So grab your soft cotton yarn in those perfect bunny shades, and let’s create a little springtime magic together
