I learned to crochet a bit as a youngster in the 1970's, and really never made much more than a few granny square projects. I was gifted a knitting loom set and a box of yarn for Christmas and having never knit before I got hooked 😂 on looming hats, scarves, and slippers for my family and friends. I've finished 9 projects so far. But then I found the crochet Stuffies and with my 1st grandchild coming this year I threw myself into crocheting lovey's and I just finished the grey bear you have the 2 part tutorial on from 4 years ago I think. I have decided that you are my favorite to learn from. And I'm just really a beginner. No problem with your accent for me. I grew up with a family full of a wide variety of accents. From Lakota, to Scottish, to German, to Spanish, to Korean, and to round it all off an Italian great aunt who spoke 9 languages fluently and was a UN translator.
Thank you for sharing this "FREE" pattern! I truly enjoyed making mine and the instructions (as always with your patterns) were as clear as a bell. Looking forward to my next project :)
Loved this pattern so cute and relaxing. I wrote your instructions down as i watched (i watched a couple times lol) so i could refer back to my notes and how i usually read patterns. Thanks so much! So cute!
Thank you so much for this tutorial! I have the same issue with that yarn you do. It's such a pain to work with. I was able to make an adorable gift for a friend's future baby ❤️
I have made many amigurumi’s following TH-cam instructions and yours was the hardest by far to follow. I would consider myself intermediate. I would suggest adding stitch counts to each section. Your accent also made you hard to follow (no discrimination, just honesty). I often follow video instructions and purchase the pattern after if I’m happy with the product. I would be hesitant to purchase because this was hard to follow correctly. This is a beautiful lovey regardless and it came out as my own.
For me it was the way she tells you the stich pattern. It helps when your just say 1 s.c + 2 dec. But instead she says Decrease every two stitches. Idk. Never had a video confuse me like this. I would consider myself an excellent crochet artist and I've watched alot of videos to follow along with and this was one of the harder ones for me.
I love this but I really wish you mentioned stitch counts at the end of rounds. Even a screen graphic? I’ve been doing amigurimi for a while but the ears are giving me fits with no counts or explanations.
I am from the Netherlands, first time ever doing this and it is finished! Perfect for beginners en good explain of what you need to do as wel with video!
Omg please tell me about the ears! M confused about the ears too. How did you increase? And when you joined the chain seven into a circle, did you have a round of six single crochets or seven?
Love it it’s so easy I made it in a couple of hours I think I would tweak it for my next one and add the feet to the blanket as I make it so I don’t have to sew them on
I can't wait to make this!! I've been looking for a simple quick and easy lovey that I can work up easily and make a bunch of them! ♡ My question is - on your cover photo you have one with rosey cheeks, how do you do that??
Ears 7chain slip stitch for a circle 3 rows of SC (8) Inc, 3sc, inc, 3sc Inc, 4sc, inc, 4sc 2 rows SC (SC, Dec) Around SC around 2dec fasten off and sew close
I love this and I’m super excited to make it, but I’m very very confused on how to make the magic circle, I’ve reminded the video about a trillion times and slowed the video down as well to follow and I’m just having such a hard time getting the stitch down 😢
Thank you 😍 you can use 6.5 to 7 mm crochet hook for the body and for the head of rabbit smaller one..maybe 6 mm crochet hook could be good. But the toy will be bigger if you don't mind 😁
Ok so I have question 🙃 everything went so tick and head so big. First I know I didn’t use the right tools, I have 3.5 needle instead 5mm. But does the yarn have size too or not? My yarn look the same but stronger one 🧐 I think your yarn looks more thinner but maybe because you are using size 5 needle. I did one leg but I’m not happy how it looks , is big and fat , have to fix it also 😢 I’ve ordered the correct size of needles and will tray same again but will different colour. It’s my first soft toy and I feel like I’m having two left hands 😢😢
Bonjour je souhaiterais faire ce modèle de doudou mais je suis française j'aimerais pouvoir traduire le patron, est ce que vous l'auriez par écrit svp merci d'avance !! ❤
Hi, every second stitch means decrease, one single crochet, decrease, one single crochet all the way around. Every stitch means decrease next to decrease. Decrease means crochet two stitches and get one.
Note for myself Ears : Long tail, 7 chain. Join together Single crochet all around 2x Increase, single crochet all around Single crochet all around Decrease, single crochet all around Single crochet all around Decrease Close hole
Try this: 7chain slip stitch for a circle 3 rows of SC (8) Inc, 3sc, inc, 3sc Inc, 4sc, inc, 4sc 2 rows SC (SC, Dec) Around SC around 2dec fasten off and sew close
Could you give the finished measurements for the body and the circumference of the head, please? Using a different kind of yarn and want to keep it proportional.
Hi I love your product and so far I’m doing pretty good I’m using the same yarn as you are and I’m just a little confused on how to do the arms and legs .
Hello, you should have got also two files. One of them is english written pattern. Write me on Etsy please. I need your email to send the written pattern.
Blanket was great, the head, pattern doesn’t stop and begin, all runs together, hard to follow, need total of stitches at end of each row,so confusing, tried to figure it out, found a different pattern to follow. At least I can follow, no way can you follow this one
For a beginner its so hard to continue without an example. Would liked to known every stitch num of inc/dec. The (head) last Dec didn't understand at all. Pls kindly gave us clear info. Sorry for the grammar though 😁
These are her ears 7chain slip stitch for a circle 3 rows of SC (8) Inc, 3sc, inc, 3sc Inc, 4sc, inc, 4sc 2 rows SC (SC, Dec) Around SC around 2dec fasten off and sew close
Hi, I feel sorry you don´t understand but I can help you. Tell me exactly where is the problem.. I have also a written pattern on www.etsy.com/shop/tommyssheepshop but it is not for free.
7chain slip stitch for a circle 3 rows of SC (8) Inc, 3sc, inc, 3sc Inc, 4sc, inc, 4sc 2 rows SC (SC, Dec) Around SC around 2dec fasten off and sew close
All I can say is 😅 Wish you’d write how many stitches are supposed to be at the end of each row so we can follow along correctly. I’ve never seen anyone randomly add in slip stitches when working in the round. So odd.
It is extremely hard to follow because you don't mention stitch count at the end of each round. Also, the yarn is so thick that you can't follow. I just gave up after 3 rounds.
This is a beautiful project and looks very simple. But, your information are extremely poor. Digging here and digging there with 5 mm hook. Then Changing hood from 5 mm to 6.5 mm. So confusing and Very disappointed!
Hello, I am going to help you 😊 Ch7 and then conect this foundation chain in a round. Then make 7 sc in two rounds. In next round Inc, 3sc,Inc, 2sc. In next round Inc, 3sc, Inc, 4sc. Next two rounds 11 sc. In next round (Dec, 1sc) 3, Dec In last round Dec * 2.

this is so easy, if you have extra yarn or bad yarn you can roll it into a ball and use it as the inside part of the head

Sewing bunny’s head to square body. Head keeps flopping over. Is that normal or do I have it stuffed too full?
It is normal ;)
does anyone know the stitch count for each round? it's a bit confusing without it
I’m trying to follow it myself.
Did you figure it out? I was able to write out the instructions for myself
@@charlotten.6894could i have the instructions?
I want to ask what r they used for ?
Thank you so much for this. My cousin is having a baby (two cousins actually) can’t wait to spoil them with baby stuff!
That’s great 😍 I am glad my video is helpful..
I love, love, love this pattern & tutorial. Thanks so much.
Thank you for you comment 😍 it pleased me.
I can't wait to make this!! I've been looking for a simple quick and easy lovey that I can work up easily and make a bunch of them! ♡
My question is - on your cover photo you have one with rosey cheeks, how do you do that??
Hello, thank you very much. I am glad to hear it 😍
I made the rosey cheeks with a blush :)
@@tommyssheep You're welcome!😊 what kind is it if you don't mind me asking?
It can be any
How many did she start with 21 in a chain ?
Can anyone help me by writing the instructions to the ears and paws out im struggling to finish it xx
Hi, i have a written pattern on www.etsy.com/shop/tommyssheepshop

do you have the video of how to make the body?
Yes, the video is in my YT channel 😊
Found this really easy until i got to the ears, ended up making it up as i went along
Can you make it bigger than 21 chains?
You can make it bigger 😉
I love this and I’m super excited to make it, but I’m very very confused on how to make the magic circle, I’ve reminded the video about a trillion times and slowed the video down as well to follow and I’m just having such a hard time getting the stitch down 😢
Oh thank youuuu 🥰 you don’t have to make a magic circle if you have troubles with it. You can make a circle from chains ;)
Amazing🙂 I have alize velluto 100g 68meters,,do you have any advise which hook I should use ? Thanks
Thank you 😍 you can use 6.5 to 7 mm crochet hook for the body and for the head of rabbit smaller one..maybe 6 mm crochet hook could be good. But the toy will be bigger if you don't mind 😁
Wondering if you have the size of the rectangle?
I thought I answered you and now I see that I didn't. I am sorry for my late reply. The length is 24 cm and the width of rectangle is 18,5 cm :)
Ok so I have question 🙃 everything went so tick and head so big. First I know I didn’t use the right tools, I have 3.5 needle instead 5mm. But does the yarn have size too or not? My yarn look the same but stronger one 🧐 I think your yarn looks more thinner but maybe because you are using size 5 needle. I did one leg but I’m not happy how it looks , is big and fat , have to fix it also 😢 I’ve ordered the correct size of needles and will tray same again but will different colour. It’s my first soft toy and I feel like I’m having two left hands 😢😢
Oh I am sure you are not having two left hands :)
Maybe you have ticker yarn. My yarn has 100 gr and 120 mt.
What are the dimensions suppose to be when done?
Love this boarder. Is looks perfect
Oh thank you, I am glad you like it 😍
I dont have a 6.5mm hook but is a 6.0mm hook also possible for this project
Yea you can use 6.0 mm ;)
Hi do you have this as a written pattern? I have got so far but struggling with the head and confused with paws x
Hi, oh I feel sorry it is hard for you. I am working on the written pattern. It will be finished in September ☺️
@@tommyssheep thank you that's great news 😀 I'm hoping to have it completed as a gift for a baby arrival in October 🤞
Bonjour je souhaiterais faire ce modèle de doudou mais je suis française j'aimerais pouvoir traduire le patron, est ce que vous l'auriez par écrit svp merci d'avance !! ❤
Cutest thing ever thank you
Thank you 🥰
how many yards of yarn did you use for this pattern?
Hi, about 90 grams :)
At end of head you said decrease every second stitch and next round every stitch. I’m new at crochet and not sure what you mean.
Hi, every second stitch means decrease, one single crochet, decrease, one single crochet all the way around. Every stitch means decrease next to decrease. Decrease means crochet two stitches and get one.
Note for myself
Ears :
Long tail, 7 chain. Join together
Single crochet all around 2x

Wow its just so beautiful thank you
Great to hear you like it. Thank you 😍
How did it go from having 4 too 5 stitches ?
I always count the chain as single crochet :)
Could you give the finished measurements for the body and the circumference of the head, please? Using a different kind of yarn and want to keep it proportional.
Hello, so the width of the body is 19 cm and the lenght of the body is 23 cm. Circumference of the head is 8,2 cm.
Thank you so much, I loved it and so cute
Oh thank you 😍 I am glad it was helpful for you.
Made the head smaller because I was gonna run out of yarn but I’ll be fine
I wish you showed how to make the magic ring 😢 it was too quick for me
You can slow down the video in settings of this video 😉 or try to follow this tutorial th-cam.com/video/JZl0AFnoFZA/w-d-xo.htmlsi=LIK3E8GaDm8AAFYL

I don´t know what you mean...:(
Hi I love your product and so far I’m doing pretty good I’m using the same yarn as you are and I’m just a little confused on how to do the arms and legs .
Hi, thank youuu..:) I am glad you like my bunny. What exact problem do you have with arms and legs? :) I would like to help you.
Love your video tutorials..
Do you have a pattern to crochet a lovey puppy ?
Thank you for your help !
Thank youuu 🥰 I do not have crochet puppy lovey 😞
This is difficult to understand. Would have been helpful if you say how many stitches there are in each round. Especially ears.
Hi, I feel sorry it is hard to understand for you. I have a written pattern on www.etsy.com/shop/tommyssheepshop
Is there a written pattern anywhere? It is hard to follow without stitch counts.
Not yet but I am working on it..☺️
Just purchased the pattern but only a partial short incomplete portion of your video is all I received.
Hello, you should have got also two files. One of them is english written pattern. Write me on Etsy please. I need your email to send the written pattern.

Hi ! Can i make this with milk cotton yarn ?
Hi, yes you can 😉

I know..I have a written pattern on www.etsy.com/shop/tommyssheepshop
21 chain and 20.rows is what she says for the blanket part
All I can say is 😅
Wish you’d write how many stitches are supposed to be at the end of each row so we can follow along correctly. I’ve never seen anyone randomly add in slip stitches when working in the round. So odd.
I thought it was going to be a slip stitch and chain pattern lol if you need help I was able to write it out for myself
I sprak nederlands
Super
I am glad you like it 😊
It is extremely hard to follow because you don't mention stitch count at the end of each round. Also, the yarn is so thick that you can't follow. I just gave up after 3 rounds.
🙁 I have written pattern where is everything mentioned.
If you want help, I figured it out 🙂
This is a beautiful project and looks very simple. But, your information are extremely poor. Digging here and digging there with 5 mm hook. Then Changing hood from 5 mm to 6.5 mm. So confusing and Very disappointed!
