Fun Crochet Bunny Candy Bag Pattern That Doubles as Decor
Uses and Materials
You create this project to hold treats or small gifts, making it an excellent handmade item for holiday sales or personal gifting. The finished bag holds approximately four to five standard bonbons.
Gather the following materials:
-
Yarn: Size 4 yarn, such as Barroco Maxcolor. Use two contrasting colors (e.g., Porcelain and Rosa Candy) for the body and inner ear/details. You can substitute with any desired colors like white, brown, or light pastels.
-
Hook: Size 3 crochet hook.
-
Accessories:
-
Two white or colored pearls (size 8) for decorating the drawstring ends.
-
A length of ribbon, if you prefer to use it instead of a crocheted cord.
-
-
Tools: Cutter, tapestry needle (for sewing), and a hot glue gun (for the tail).
Special Features
This project incorporates several unique design elements to achieve the finished look:
-
Bunny Motif: The bag features two large, curved bunny ears sewn to the top and a simple, fluffy pom-pom tail attached to the back.
-
Versatile Sizing: The pattern provides specific instructions on how to easily increase the width and height of the bag by adding more rounds. This allows you to accommodate larger Easter eggs or more bonbons.
-
Drawstring Closure: The top edge includes a final row of spaced stitches, creating holes specifically for weaving a cord or ribbon to close the bag and tie a decorative bow.
Level of Difficulty
Intermediate.
This pattern requires a confident understanding of basic crochet techniques. You must be able to perform a Magic Ring, single crochet (sc), double crochet (dc), increase (inc), decrease (dec), and the double treble (ponto alto duplo). The difficulty also involves assembling the separate pieces, creating the pom-pom tail, and sewing the ears securely.
Tutor's Suggestions
Follow these suggestions from the tutor to ensure a smooth crocheting experience:
-
Color Customization: Feel free to substitute the suggested Porcelain and Rosa Candy colors. The design works beautifully with various color combinations, such as white, chocolate brown, soft blue, or yellow.
-
Size Adjustment: If you want a wider bag, add one or more rounds of increases after Round 5 (e.g., Round 6 could be 5 dc + inc, Round 7 could be 6 dc + inc). If you want a taller bag to hold a bigger egg, add more straight rounds of double crochet after the increase rounds (e.g., 10 or 12 straight rounds instead of 8).
-
Drawstring Alternative: You can substitute the crocheted cord with a satin ribbon for a different, potentially more elegant finish.
-
Weave Ends Immediately: Hide the starting yarn tail from the Magic Ring as soon as possible, as it becomes more difficult to weave it in once the body height increases.
Crochet Bunny Candy Bag
Its rounded shape, floppy ears, and soft texture make it suitable for holiday baskets, school giveaways, birthday favors, or even decorative storage on a desk or shelf.
One of its advantages is how customizable it is, different colors, embroidered faces, or small accessories instantly give each bag its own personality.
The process begins with forming a compact base, followed by working upward in continuous rounds to shape the main pouch.
A top opening is then formed for easy filling. After that, the signature bunny ears are stitched separately and secured neatly to the top edge. Adding a mini tail enhances the charm, and weaving in the final ends gives it a clean, finished look.
