If you have a question, please contact the designer directly and they will be happy to help you. Materials & Tools Yarn: The example bunny and bear loveys were made using Heirloom Cotton 8 ply (120m/50g) in the following colours: Bear lovey yarn used: Oat (6630) and Parchment (6617) approx 100g (per comforter) Bunny lovey yarn used: Glacier (6619) and Snow (6607) approx 110g (per comforter) Pink yarn for cheeks. Only small amounts of yarn is required for the cheeks so leftover yarn can be used. Black embroidery thread for eyes and nose. Hook: 2.25mm (US B/1) and 4mm (US G/6) Toy stuffing approx 35-40g Stitch marker Scissors Darning Needle Pattern Notes Skill level: beginner Written in UK terms – switchable to US terms below. When working amigurumi parts (head and ears), work in continuous spirals, without closing off the rounds with a slip stitch. Use a stitch marker at the beginning of each round. This helps when counting your stitches to compare it with the pattern. To help you when sewing pieces together, first pin them into place and check that you are happy with the positioning. Gauge and Finished Size Blanket gauge: 19 stitches and 9 rows in a treble crochet = 10cm x 10cm Amigurumi gauge: 5 rounds = 3.7cm across (Note: crochet the first 5 rounds of the head pattern to use as a gauge swatch). Finished size: The finished blanket is approx 33cm x 33cm; the head is approx 22cm in diameter. Convert Pattern Terms Here you can quickly switch between UK and US crochet terms.

Pin for Later “The inspiration behind this pattern was a combination of the stunning neutral palette of the Heirloom Cotton 8 I had in my yarn stash, as well as the fact that my boys both adored their little loveys as babies. They went with us everywhere – the car, the pram, the shops…Grandma and Grandad’s house – EVERYWHERE!! So, I wanted to create something that was just as adorable, safe for babies and toddlers to sleep with, durable and easy to care for, and specifically with a beginner crocheter in mind.” Alanna Sleepy Baby Bear and Bunny Lovey Free Crochet Pattern: interchangeable lovely blanket You have chosen to view the pattern in UK terms.

Stuffing Stuff the head firmly. Insert small amounts at a time until you get the right shape. Stuffing your toy can be tricky, but it is a very important step in getting the right shape and look for your toy. Overstuffing might stretch the fabric too far and show gaps and understuffing will give your piece a deflated look. Take your time with this step. Rnd 25: [dc in next st, dc dec] x6 (12 sts) Rnd 26: dc dec x6 (6 sts) Leaving a long yarn tail (about 30cm) for sewing the head to the blanket later, break the yarn and pull through.

Work 1 dc into each st across, into corner tr work 2 dc. Join round with a sl-st into top of beg ch 2. (244 sts) Break the yarn and pull through. Weave in all yarn tails. Embroidery Work Pattern Note: I have chosen to use an X stitch for the amigurumi parts (head and ears), which gives a tighter, neater finish. The standard V stitch can be used, however if used it will result in a slightly larger head size. Embroider the eyes, nose and eyebrows on to the head with black thread. I placed the eyes and the top of the nose between rounds 16 and 17 with 9 stitches between the eyes. Use pink yarn to add little pink cheeks under the eyes. Embroidery Work TIP: Bring the yarn up from the base of the head and return thread to the base when finished. Here you now can easily secure the yarn tails and the blanket will hide it all later for a professionally neat finish. Construction Construction Step 1 Bunny If making the bunny, pinch the base of the ears together and secure with a few stitches. Sew the ears to the top of the head between rounds 5 and 6 on either side. Bear For the bear, sew the ears to the top of the head between rounds 6-10 on either side. Blanket: step 1 Lay the blanket flat and position the head on the blanket with the face centered on a diagonal with the blanket seam (starting point of each round) at the back. (Step 1). Carefully pin into position, turn your work over and using the long yarn tail from the head, sew an ‘X’, being sure to pass through both the blanket and the head together. (Step 2) Construction Step 2 Step 2: blanket Next, turn your work again to begin sewing the blanket to the head from the right side. Use BLO round (Rnd 24) as a guide, picking up a stitch just above this round as shown in Step 3. When you have made your way all around the head, secure and weave in the yarn tail. Construction Step 3 Position the arms and sew securely to the blanket. Congratulations!!! Your sleepy baby lovey is finished.

The rounds 4 to 22 don’t grow as a cylinder but rather as an expanding cone shape. Have you any tips? Should there be an increase chain stitch? Reply juliak March 12, 2022 at 6:47 pm Hi! I’m working on this project now. It should be one continuous spiral, with no slip stitches to join. Make sure that there are 12 stitches per round with no increases after round 3. Mine is looking great so far! Reply Mary January 31, 2020 at 4:31 pm Do you have a clip to show how to make the round 12? I got stuck in this step. Much appreciated! Reply Kim February 9, 2020 at 4:26 am How do I contact Alanna? I was almost finished with the head and couldn’t figure out why it was so long? The pattern says DC ( double crochet) but the description of the DC is actually a single crochet. I’m confused. I tried the single crochet and it doesn’t look right either. Is it supposed to be a half double crochet stitch for the head? Please help. Reply Rena' June 20, 2023 at 8:32 pm This pattern is written in uk terms so a dc is actually an sc and a treble is actually a dc. Hope this helps. Reply Linda April 1, 2020 at 8:16 pm I started with the head but it’s coming out cone shaped? I’ve made many heads before but for some reason, the top portion is more of a cone than a nice round ball. Not sure what I’m doing wrong? Reply Stéphanie April 19, 2020 at 9:52 am It is not Double crochet but Single crochet you have to do. I was having the same problem and now it’s prettier. Reply Jordan August 12, 2020 at 12:20 am I am having the same problem! And I am doing single crochet but it’s still cone shaped. Did you ever figure out what went wrong? Reply Jordan August 17, 2020 at 1:12 am You can but I actually figured it out! No more cone shape (: Reply Flavia Rosca December 8, 2020 at 11:06 pm Hi Linda, I have the same issue like you had and unfortunately I didn’t saw your message before 🙁 I didn’t know that for UK the pattern is wroten in a different way. Reply Alia April 23, 2020 at 6:34 pm Hello! I have found your channel on youtube while pregnant and isolated from my family due to COVID (i’m in the US). You do such a great job, learning to crochet has kept me sane. I am beginner and have used your videos to make hat, booties, and bassinet blanket. I can follow along nicely on a video. However, reading I get overwhelmed with the directions. Also things like X stitch in the notes ect. Any chance could request a video of this sweet lovey? Thanks so much for considering!! Alia Reply Lea April 25, 2020 at 9:48 am Hello! I hope someone can help me with round 12. I don’t know how it works. I just try it 2 weeks I hope i will get an answer soon. Does a video exist? Or something were I can see how it works? Lra Reply Helen Thompson July 21, 2020 at 11:07 pm Hi Lea, search YouTube for the front post treble (fptr) and you will soon understand. Reply Héloïse May 16, 2020 at 12:54 am Hello, I love that lovey and would really like to make it but I can’t find nowhere in Quebec, Canada where to buy that yarn… so I was wondering if there’s any other substitute yarn you can refer me to buy like at Michaels ? Thanks in advance a lot! Reply Héloïse May 29, 2020 at 6:03 pm Hi, thanks for your help! And yes I’ve tried from google and I can’t find it… I’m trying to find a substitute but I’m scared to not end up with the same finish. We’ll see but thanks again! Reply MJ December 16, 2021 at 7:59 pm I know it’s been a year but I’m from Spain and I had to substitute the yarn. I used DMC 100% Baby Cotton but you just have to find some DK weight baby cotton or 100% cotton, I recommend a 3-4 mm needle size yarn. I used the DMC one and a 2.5 mm and a 4 mm hook and it turned out exactly the same as in the picture. Reply Corey August 7, 2022 at 3:10 pm Hello, I did some looking and ebay has many available options of the Heirloom cotton. Hope this helps Reply Erinn June 10, 2020 at 10:16 pm Round 15 of blanket, after ch 2 it reads dc same space (its beginning corner), but all other corners are 2dc, htr, 2dc and once back to beg, 2dc then join. My question is will that corner only have dc, htr, 2dc or should it be 2dc after ch 2 (in same st) to make all corner stitches the same? Reply Jessica Obleton June 22, 2020 at 9:40 pm I love these so much! Is there a print-friendly link that I am missing? Reply Shiloh July 12, 2020 at 11:12 pm What does break the yarn and pull through mean Reply Miss Mahtab July 17, 2020 at 5:42 am I love your ideas. That’s all is so impressive and unique. you are doing nice and loveable crocheting. Reply miki August 10, 2020 at 7:36 am thank you!! Reply Jessica August 12, 2020 at 5:51 pm How do I contact Alanna? I’m struggling to figure out Rnd 12. Reply Theresa Fisher August 4, 2021 at 4:49 am I’m not understanding Road 12 either did you get a response that helps you? I don’t understand after I slip stitch into the chain to space and chain for working the fptr around the first triple post but I’m not sure what post that is. Reply Tasha January 14, 2024 at 6:19 pm I am having the same problem, all is fine until I get to Rnd 12 then it gets all scrunch up so not sure it’s right. I did dc, fpdc, and then dc again. But wondering if it’s dc, fpdc , skip st dc instead. Very confused with that round. I would like to speak with her too if possible. Reply chipsy January 19, 2025 at 9:18 pm hi! i was struggling too. i recommend looking up “alpine stitch” on youtube for a better explanation. Reply Liz August 24, 2020 at 6:28 pm Has anyone tried washing this yet/have any tips for washing a crochet project like this? I want to make this but I really want to make sure I’m able to clean it once it’s being loved on 🙂 Reply Amanda September 3, 2020 at 2:27 pm Hi, I don’t see any instruction for how to make the arms. Am I missing something? Reply Abi March 13, 2021 at 1:24 pm Hi Amanda, the instructions for arms are just under the instructions for the bear ears. It seems they just forgot to bold the words 🙂 Reply Miel Maclean January 1, 2021 at 11:06 pm Hi I’m in the process of making one of the bunny lovey blankets and I’ve struck a problem while making the head. I’ve messaged the designer through Instagram Direct but havent had a reply (probably due to the holidays). I’m hoping someone can help or at least least me know how to contact the designer directly. Here’s what I sent her… This is the first time I’ve tried a pattern like this and the stitch count doesn’t match the pattern after I’ve done a dc dec row. I’m wondering if it’s to do with how I’m reading the instructions in the brackets. Do I repeat only what’s in the brackets or all instructions up to and including the brackets? Reply Edina January 30, 2021 at 12:48 pm Hello, how can I contact Anna? I was crocheting the blanket and I got to the 12th round but I do not really understand how to do that and I cannot keep crocheting. Thank you for your response, Edina 🙂 Reply Louise March 1, 2021 at 12:15 am Unfortunately, after reading the comments, I’m going to stick with original Bella Coco patterns and not this guest crocheter pattern Love your work SJ! Reply Brooklynn March 7, 2021 at 3:49 am Hey, I am making this for a family member who is expecting a baby soon, but I am confused on rounds 5-11 on the blanket. Do you mean that on each side I add 4 stitches, or add one stitch per side on each round. It would be really great if you replied. Thank you 🙂 Reply Caroline October 25, 2021 at 10:49 pm Hi I also struggling with the blanket. Mine seems to be going frilly and not lay flat Reply Kara November 12, 2021 at 2:45 am Mine is also has a wave in it. I have pulled it out 3 times and am still struggling on the 4th. Did you reach out to the original poster and receive any tips? Please share if you do! Reply Caitie January 2, 2022 at 1:17 am Hi Brooklynn, I’m at that part now too … I found that with the multiple corner stitches, it automatically increases the side stitch count, without needing to do any other increase stitches Reply KMK March 21, 2021 at 5:07 pm is there a free printable pattern for these?? Reply Brianna May 16, 2021 at 1:23 pm Can I get this translated into US terms ? Reply Mylah January 22, 2025 at 8:34 pm There’s an option above the stitch abbreviations where you can change whether it’s UK or US terms. Reply Alisha July 23, 2021 at 7:24 pm Hi, do we have to use the blanket pattern included or can we use a simpler pattern?

Reply Arti February 1, 2022 at 5:21 am Hi , Thanks for the pattern. My stitches from 12-15 have a wave to it. What did I do wrong?

I just made the bunny and absolutely LOVE it!! Also love how you embroidered the face x Reply Angelia April 6, 2022 at 12:46 am Made a bear and a bunny for my little girl to have while she is in the NICU for an extended time.

Thank you for this pattern ❤️ Reply Kirstin May 19, 2023 at 9:04 pm I’d like to make this but am a bit concerned about the following – Finished size: The finished blanket is approx 33cm x 33cm; the head is approx 22cm in diameter. 22cm is enormous! In the photos it appears to sit in the palm of her hand. Do I assume this is an error ? Thank you Reply Kate August 15, 2023 at 10:30 am Hi! I am struggling with the end/beginning of the new rounds of the blanket. It seems, there are bigger holes than in the rest of the pattern. Did anyone of you have the same issue and figured out how to fix it? I tried to contact the designer through instagram but didn’t get a response. Thank you!

I’ve made a beautiful blanket with a baby deer on it and want to make a little deer lovey to go with it. Thanks! Reply Naomi July 22, 2024 at 5:33 pm Hi! I’ve finished the head, arms, and ears, but I’ve been really struggling with the blanket part. In the 2nd round it says “ch 4, work 2 tr in corner dtr, [tr in next 4 sts, (2 tr, dtr, 2 tr) in corner dtr} x3”. I am mostly confused when it says “in corner dtr”, how do I do that?

With Emb digitizing services, you can seamlessly blend crochet with embroidery, making each blanket unique and special. It’s the perfect way to create a cherished keepsake with a personal touch! Reply I Love Digitizing October 4, 2024 at 12:29 pm I have reviewed your article and must express that I have not encountered such an informative and effective piece before. This article will undoubtedly assist many beginners, including myself, in developing their embroidery skills. I look forward to reading your future blogs as well. I truly appreciate your effort and commitment.

Also, I made a variation with the ears. Instead of pinching the ears and sewing them to stank up, I sewed them on the side of the head and let them flop downward. Very cute, and easier (for me) to attach. I love the pattern! Reply Leave a Reply Cancel Reply Save my name, email, and website in this browser for the next time I comment.
