“Nicky the NICU Jellyfish” was created when my good friend had a preemie baby in the NICU (neonatal intensive care unit), she did research on preemie babies and came across an article about crochet toys with coils on them that remind babies of the umbilical cord, and it calms them when they’re in the NICU!

And the best part? It keeps them from pulling on their wires!

The pattern is in English U.S. terms only. It is a written pattern with lots of photos and video links to help beginners.
Links to purchase all supplies are included in the pattern.

STITCHES USED:
Magic Ring: (video included)
sc: single crochet
sl st: slip stitch
dc: double crochet
tr: treble crochet or triple crochet

MEASUREMENTS: Approximately
2.75 inches wide, 8.5 inches long.

I recommend using 100% cotton yarn so you do not irritate sensitive baby skin. (Unless you are making this as a decorative piece.)
