Crochet Bunny Candy Holder Pattern That Brings Joy to Every Table

The crochet bunny candy holder balances fun and practicality. Its soft texture, compact shape, and cute bunny ears create a cozy, inviting look. You can customize colors, facial details, or closures like flaps, loops, or drawstrings, giving each holder a unique personality.

Tip

Quick Tip: When preparing the arms, cut your Velcro pieces into small, rounded circles before gluing. This prevents the corners from showing and minimizes the chances of the Velcro catching on other fabric or peeling off over time, ensuring the bunny's hug is long-lasting!

Special Features

  • Integrated Ears: The ears are formed by folding the top edge of the main cylindrical pouch and then crocheting the ear shape directly onto the folded layer, giving the pouch a clean and seamless finish.

  • Velcro Arms: The bunny's arms have small, rounded Velcro pieces attached to the ends. This feature allows the bunny to clasp a chocolate bar, a small phone, or hug the strap of a bag, making it a portable and interactive decoration.

  • Secure Closure: The top opening closes with a simple, secure button and chain loop closure, which is hidden behind the head/ears.

  • Multipurpose Design: While designed for sweets, the sturdy, tubular shape allows it to serve as a small case for tiny belongings (like lipstick, coins, or earphones).

Level of Difficulty

This is an Intermediate project. You must be comfortable with the following:

  • Basic Stitches: Chain (CH), Slip Stitch (SS), Single Crochet (SC), and Double Crochet (DC).

  • Shaping in the Round: Working the initial oval base of the pouch, which requires increases.

  • Integrated Construction: The technique of folding the fabric and crocheting the ears onto the folded edge requires precise stitch placement.

  • Small Parts & Assembly: You must create and accurately attach small pieces like the snout, arms, and eyes.

Tutor's Suggestions

  • Hook Adjustment: Use a 2.0 mm crochet hook (as used in the video) and adjust it based on your yarn thickness to ensure the final gauge is tight.

  • Arm Length: The tutor found the arms slightly too long. To fix this, reduce the arm length by one row or use the Half Double Crochet (HDC) stitch instead of Double Crochet for the arm rows.

  • Button Size: Select a small, delicate button for the back closure. Adjust the length of the closure loop (initially 6 chains) to perfectly fit your chosen button size.

  • Pouch Capacity: Note that the pouch is small. It will not fit thick, bulky bonbons, but is perfectly sized for thinner chocolates (like chocolate sticks or "Bis" chocolates) and small candies.

Uses

  • Easter Gift Pouch: A creative and personal way to present Easter sweets to children.

  • Small Storage Case: Use it to carry earphones, lipstick, or coins.

  • Bag Accessory: Use the Velcro arms to hug a bag strap or purse, turning it into a decorative "bag charm."

Materials

  • Yarn:

    • Main Color (Blue): Amigurumi yarn (or similar) in baby blue.

    • Snout/Accent Color (White): Clea yarn (or similar thin yarn).

  • Hook: 2.0 mm crochet hook.

  • Accessories:

    • A pair of black half pearl beads for eyes (or safety eyes/embroidery floss).

    • A small button for the back closure.

    • A small piece of Velcro (cut into four small round pieces for the arms).

  • Tools: Tapestry needle for assembly and weaving in ends, cold silicone glue.

Gather yarn, a crochet hook, scissors, and a yarn needle. Start by forming the main body with a magic ring or circle and crochet in rounds using basic stitches.

 

Create bunny ears and any facial features, then attach them securely. Add a loop, flap, or drawstring to hold the treats inside and weave in all ends for a neat finish.

The result is a charming, functional, and handcrafted accessory that brings joy to both the maker and the recipient.
