Which Yarn Works Best For A Crochet Baby Lovey?
There is no doubt that a crochet baby lovey should be soft and huggable, so be sure to use baby-friendly yarn. The Elephhat Lovey by Loops and Love Crochet was made with Knit Picks Brava Worsted. It’s a medium-weight yarn with 100% acrylic fiber content that offers excellent softness and is often used in baby projects.
