crochet teddy lovey

I can't believe it's so long since I blogged. I made this "lovey" yesterday. I've been seeing them around on the internet for a while but this is the first one that I have made. They are a cross between a security blanket and a cuddly toy. The yarn was left over from a knitted double side blanket and I thought was  a good teddy colour.

I didn't have a pattern, I just made it up as I went along.

The edging creates a lovely feeling texture, for baby. The ribbon is also a touchy feely feature, and is sewn securely into place, with no fraying ends. All the features are embroidered for safety.
