Crochet Emoji Doll Lovey by Cherry and Crochet Designs

This funky lovey/comforter is quick, easy and rewarding to make. The pattern is easy to follow as I don’t use any abbreviations, only the full terms. It is also designed with babies in mind, so it is securely attached and doesn’t have any loose parts, such as buttons. It would make a perfect gift that is a little different and out there. You definitely can’t buy a handmade crochet emoji doll lovey from the shops, so make something special for your child. Loveys/comforters are used as a soothing, comforting toy that they can use to comfort themselves. This makes them perfect for babies who are crying throughout the night. I hope you enjoy making this unique baby toy!

Free Crochet Pattern- Simple Socks | Cherry and Crochet Designs

Simple Socks Crochet Pattern

I made these socks when my favorite, pure wool socks became holey and I was frustrated at how poor quality even the nicest socks are. I came to the conclusion the only way I was going to be able to guarantee the quality was by purchasing handmade ones or making them myself. I found some pretty cotton yarn I hadn't used in years and began my socks. They are made for a size 3-5 ladies and designed to be socks that can be worn with most shoes, or just inside. Each sock takes around an hour and a half to make as the stitches are deliberately very small to make them last longer. If you would like to make them in a bigger size, you could use a larger crochet hook. If you would like them to be longer at the ankle, you could do more rounds after round 76. They would make a gorgeous gift, (I'm making 6 pairs for Christmas gifts), or great for yourself. They could also be made to sell.

You will need
Yarn needle
2.5mm crochet hook
Approximately 100g/ 3.6oz 4ply yarn in fibre and colour of your choice (this yarn is the one used in the socks pictured)

Difficulty- Easy

These would look gorgeous in ethically produced, hand-dyed yarn, check out Darn Good Yarn's Factory Outlet, they have stunning eco-friendly yarns and craft supplies at ridiculously low prices. New Subscribers get 15% OFF - Shop Now - DarnGoodYarn.com

If you need to size them up, (they're made for a UK ladies size 3-5), try using a slightly larger hook size, eg a 3mm, or crocheting more rounds between 5-36 until it seems the right size, ideally try it on as you make them.
