Barry The Bear Baby Lovey Crochet Pattern

Barry The Bear Baby Lovey is my latest pattern.

This cute bear baby lovey was created to match the 3in1 Woodland Bear Baby Blanket and together will do a great baby shower present for boys and girls alike.

I used the one row gingham pattern to create a smaller pattern that matches the 3in1 bear baby blanket.

The design for the bear baby lovey is suitable for girls or boys alike, it is crocheted in neutral colors, but you can customize it by choosing your own color palette.

SPECIAL STITCHES

First Double Crochet In The Row (Dc1)

Sc in the first stitch, ch2. 

Compared to the usual method of crocheting a double crochet in the first stitch of a row (ch3), this method of constructing it will eliminate the gap that usually occurs between the first two stitches and will help bring the yarn that is not in use over to the following row.

SUPPLIES USED

• Marriner Yarns double knit (light worsted) yarn
• 1 x 100g ball in dark brown (chocolate)
• 1 x 100g ball in brown (mink)
• 1 x 100g ball in cream (oat)

Marriner Yarns is only found in the UK, so for my international readers, I can recommend a similar yarn, Red Heart Yarn , which comes is a multitude of colors and weights, just as affordable and easy to work with as Marriner Yarns.

• 9mm safety doll eyes
• 4mm crochet hook
• tapestry needle
• scissors, stitch markers and pins to pin the parts in place before sewing

I get most of my crochet supplies from Amazon, it’s fast and easy and I find everything I need in one place. 

I hope you enjoyed my latest creation and found the pattern easy to follow. Don’t forget to tag me with your finished projects, I would love to see how yours turned out.
