Not only would this be baby's favorite lovie I know as a Mom I would love it to. This crochet bear lovie is too cute to not be lovable. Made with a granny square makes it that much easier to complete.

This pattern could not be that much more easier. With the blanket being a typical granny square and the addition of a bear head you could easily mass produce these if needed. I know we like to gift baby blankets and hats but I know these would be appreciated just as well.

I love how this project has a classic Granny Square as its base, and how it would work just as well for a boy as a girl. Just change that pink yarn to blue, or if you want something gender neutral, use yellow or green instead. The head is one of the simplest amigurumi forms, although I would work all the features in embroidery instead of using the safety eyes. Very nice instructional video, too.

What a cutie pie. I love making and giving them as gifts. One friend said her son carries his around like Linus with his blanket. I made mine out of cotton yarn so it's washable and allergy free. This one needs to be added to my to do list. Thank you.

This bear lovie would make an awesome baby shower gift for someone. Just make sure to make your stitches close together so there arent any large openings to get precious fingers and toes caught in. This pattern is pretty easy to follow along to and the video is an excellent help.

How awesome this "Crochet Bear Lovie" would be to sell at your local craft fair. It looks so sweet in that color combination. The blankie is made as a giant granny square. I appreciate the nice video tutorial that is given right here on this page. No need to click a link.

I love this Baby's Favorite Crochet Bear Lovie! The pattern is well written and easy to follow, and with the video to show you step by step this one will come out great! I think any young child would love having one of these. They are not to large but just the right size for the small hands. I'm looking forward to making this one. Thank you for sharing this free crochet pattern.

This is so cute! My niece would love one of these! She has a couple from the store already, but I think it would be more special as a handmade gift! The pattern looks pretty easy to follow. Even though

finishing my thought even though it says it is an intermediate pattern, I definitely want to give it a try because I love a challenge!
