Child Size Blanket Cardigans
This is the free child's size version of my popular adult Blanket Cardigan Pattern. I offer this child size pattern series in a 18 month - 14/16. This one is the 18 month, but it includes links to all other sizes. I did decide to omit the fringe on the smallest sizes. Little hands, little fingers, lots of playing, maybe a little dirt, and you just don't know how well all that would mix together. We also decided to omit the buttonholes that are included in the larger sizes because of body proportion variation from child to child. Enjoy!

The front lapels and hood will be oversized and will drape for comfort and ease.

Snowman Lovey
Crochet a comforting Snowman Lovey for a special little one. A star shaped comforter blanket with a plush snowman attachment. To make this extra snuggly, I have used fluffy chenille-style yarn, but it could be made using plain yarn as well. You can also use different weight yarn, eg. #4 Worsted or #3 DK, instead. Just make sure you keep to the same yarn weight for all the colours. Use the hook size recommended for the yarn for the blankey and half a size smaller for the snowman. Please note that this will reduce the finished size of your lovey.
