Rally, the Hockey Fanatic, is one of my many sports themed lovey designs. He has adorable curly hair, hockey stick antennas, and a star shaped blanket. But what makes him really special is that all his pieces are crocheted in place - no sewing of limbs, and no worries about mispositioned body parts! Your only worry will be which sport you want to crochet after hockey.

Pattern was independently tested.
