What Makes the Sleepy Baggy Lovey Special?
If you’re looking for a sweet, comforting toy for your precious bundle of joy or a thoughtful gift for new parents, this project is a fantastic choice.
It may sound cliché, but these crochet baby loveys are completely different from other toys you’ve already seen. They feature some amigurumi elements, but it is their baggy-like body design that makes them so special. Their inside is left empty to remain light, but at the same time soft, perfect for cuddling.
Yarn and Hook Size Recommendations
Crochet these baby loveys using fingering yarn and a 2 mm hook. The designer used Stenli Baby Cotton Candy, but you can go for any other cotton or semi-cotton yarn that will create a soft fabric your little one will love to cuddle at night.
You can stick with the pink color or go for green or blue shade if the toy is meant for a baby boy.
Techniques You’ll Learn With This Pattern
The Sleepy Baggy Lovey will be an easy take for intermediates and those who already have some experience in crocheting amigurumi pieces. Apart from the basic stitches, this one requires you to use the magic ring technique and a little bit of increase and decrease, so be sure to get familiar with them first.
The toy consists of 9 separate parts, so a tapestry needle will definitely come in handy when sewing all the pieces together.
