This adorable bear lovey pattern creates a comforting, handmade gift for little ones. The pattern includes instructions for the bear head, arms, and a cozy blanket base, making it perfect for cuddling or use as a nursery decoration.

Size Options

The finished lovey measures approximately 12 x 12 inches (30 x 30 cm) for the blanket section, with a head that is about 2.5 inches (6 cm) in diameter.
To adjust the size, you can increase or decrease the number of blanket rounds for a smaller or larger lovey.

Gauge

Gauge is not critical for this pattern, but consistency in stitch size is helpful to ensure the head and blanket match proportionally.

Stuffing: Polyester fiberfill for the head and arms.
Black yarn or embroidery thread for facial features (eyes, nose, and blush detail).
