Little Lovey a Free Crochet Pattern

Sharing is caring!

Crochet a Little Lovey that is perfectly sized for little hands. Crocheted with scraps of cotton yarn on an organic Maple Wood Ring baby will enjoy the different combined textures. Crochet teether, toy, or lovey the Little Lovey crochet pattern is all of the above.

This one is a great stash buster. There never seem to be a lack of baby showers happening and these ring loveys are popular with moms and babies. I crocheted this one in cotton to minimize the fuzz that comes with yarn.

The Little Lovey is an easy pattern that’s also a breeze to adjust to your size needs. I’ve linked up a photo tutorial for crocheting around a ring, if you’ve never done that before.
