Baby loveys are one of my favorite things to make – and design! They are super versatile, work up quickly, and are super snuggly for a little one.

Lovey blankets are the perfect small item for gifting and are craft fair bestsellers. This elephant is made with plush chenille yarn for extra softness and this petite-sized lovey is especially designed for new little ones!
