Today I have a CBL (Crochet Bucket List) Project to share with you!
A family member asked me to crochet this lovey for an upcoming baby shower gift –
I’ve crocheted a few of Salena’s designs in the past and I was very willing to attempt this one too –
This design is available on Red Heart Yarns website:

The design is very easy to follow and it took me less than 2-hours to crochet.
I substituted Worsted Weight Cotton Yarn for the yarn recommended in the pattern – I just prefer cotton yarn for projects for babies.
The finished blankie is soft and huggable and just too darn cute!
I definitely recommend this pattern – and I encourage you to explore some of Salena’s other designs too 🙂 Here’s a link to her Ravelry page: Salena Baca on Ravelry
Here is a picture of the finished blankie –
If you are looking for another option for a baby comfort blanket, I also recommend this pattern by my friend Dedri.
I had the chance to test this pattern for her last year. I loved it and I honestly wanted to keep it for myself once it was finished!

and here is a picture of my finished project:
Rhondda says
No I didn’t – I followed the pattern. I think I remember it was slightly larger but only a very small bit.
Shirley says
Did you change the pattern size or hook size because you used a different yarn?
