Meet the Christmas Cocoa Barista Bunny – a soft pastel amigurumi bunny dressed in a striped winter sweater, chocolate pinafore dress with cream ruffle, matching beret, cute Mary Jane shoes, and a tiny hot cocoa crossbody bag with a gingerbread cookie friend. Everything is crocheted to look like a real handmade product styled on a wooden table in cozy holiday light.

Please note: I strive for accuracy in every pattern, but occasional errors can happen. Thank you for understanding and for enjoying my designs.

Materials

• Worsted weight (category 4) yarn in:
  1. Cream (main bunny body, sweater base, ruffle)
  2. Light beige or oatmeal (alternative body tone if desired)
  3. Brown (pinafore dress, shoes, cocoa mug, some details)
  4. Deep red (beret, shoe details, stripe on sweater)
  5. Soft sage/forest green (sweater stripe, candy cane detail)
  6. White (whipped cream, dots on dress, candy cane)
  7. Small amount of pink (cheeks and nose embroidery)
  8. Small amount of gingerbread brown (cookie)
• Crochet hook: 2.75–3.0 mm (use a size that gives you tight stitches with your yarn)
• 8 mm black safety eyes (2 pcs)
• Polyester fiberfill stuffing
• Yarn needle for sewing and embroidery
• Stitch markers
• Optional: tiny button or snap for back of sweater/pinafore (you can also sew closed)

---

Gauge & Finished Size

Exact gauge is not critical, but fabric should be firm so stuffing does not show.

As a reference:

• 18–20 sc x 20–22 rows ≈ 4 in (10 cm) with 3.0 mm hook in sc.

With the yarn and hook above, bunny height is approximately 8–9 in (20–23 cm) standing, not including candy cane on the beret.

---

Notes

• Work with tight tension for a neat, realistic stitch definition similar to photographed amigurumi.
• Stuff firmly but evenly, shaping as you go, especially in the head and feet for a rounded, plush look.
• The clothes and accessories are designed to fit this specific body size. If you use much thicker or thinner yarn, adjust hook size or stitch counts.

Pinafore Dress

Use brown for the main pinafore and cream for the ruffle.

Skirt Waistband

Assembly

1. Attach Head to Body
   • Center the head over the neck opening. Sew in a tight spiral, adding extra stuffing to the neck as you go so the head is stable.
2. Sew Ears
   • Place ears symmetrically on top of the head, slightly angled outward. Sew bases securely.
3. Attach Arms
   • Position arms on either side of the body, just below the neckline of the sweater. Sew in place, making sure they can rest naturally holding the mug strap or cookie.
4. Attach Tail
   • Sew the small puff tail centered on the back, slightly above the lower body.
5. Face Embroidery
   1. With black thread/yarn, embroider a small vertical line between the eyes, then a simple “Y” or curved line down for the mouth.
   2. With pink yarn, stitch a tiny triangular nose and add a few small blush circles on the cheeks if desired.
6. Dress and Style
   1. Put on the sweater.
   2. Slide the pinafore up from the feet, settle the waistband at the bunny’s waist, then cross and sew straps at the back.
   3. Put on the shoes, fastening straps across the top of each foot.
   4. Place the beret on the head, slightly tilted to one side. You can secure with a few stitches if the bunny will be handled a lot.
   5. Hang the cocoa mug bag across the body so it sits at one side.
   6. Place the gingerbread cookie at the bunny’s feet or sew lightly to one hand for display.

Finishing & Styling

• Gently shape all parts with your hands to emphasize the rounded head, soft tummy, and slightly bent arms.
• Trim any visible yarn ends and fluff the stuffing inside if needed.
• For photo-ready realism, pose your Christmas Cocoa Barista Bunny on a wooden table or sofa, add a blurred background of fairy lights or a small crochet tree, and let the detailed stitches and tiny accessories shine.

Your cozy bunny barista is ready to serve hot cocoa all season long!
