These adorable crochet toys are called loveys or security blankets. A project like that may have many names, but one thing makes it absolutely one of a kind. It’s a combination of a small, worked-flat blanket and amigurumi added in the center. Blankie makes a little “skirt”, which is attached to amigurumi’s head and hands. Loveys come in all shapes and sizes, and there are no rules on how they should look like! How great is that, right? We surely love it!
There are even designs that add paws and head at the edges of the blanket, and it looks absolutely gorgeous. Choose whichever animal you like, or even go beyond that and make a lovey that features your favorite movie character. Possibilities are endless! Trust us! We have seen many of them!
