Free Easter Chick Crochet Pattern

Charlie the Easter Bunny Chick Amigurumi

Crochet a cute chick wearing an Easter bunny hat with this fun free crochet pattern. This adorable chick makes a perfect Easter decoration or a sweet handmade gift for anyone who loves chickens (or bunnies!). The bunny hat is removable, adding extra playfulness to the design.

This pattern is written in U.S. terms and includes clear, step-by-step instructions, making it suitable for both beginners and experienced crocheters. When made with sport-weight cotton yarn and a B/2 (2.5 mm) crochet hook, the finished chick will be about 6 inches (16 cm) tall. Use thicker yarn if you want to make a much bigger, extra cuddly chick!

A little story about Charlie:

When Charlie the Chick found out that eggs that the Easter Bunny was bringing around were made from chocolate she wanted to be an easter bunny to! Please don’t tell her that some easter eggs are real eggs, this might scare her a bit.
