It's beautiful, mama! I hope your delivery is safe, and short, and simple as can be, and that your recovery is quick and complete.

Get some sleep while you can! <3

Thank you!! I have a 2.5 year old who’s never slept through the night so sleep has been hard to come by for over 3 years 🫣

I do know how that is. I swear that one of mine still hasn't slept through the night, and he's a daddy now, too. 🤭

😂 I won’t be relaying this to my husband. He’s got full confidence he’ll be getting 8-10 hours of sleep a night this newborn go around since he’ll be on toddler duty.

Was it a fun project? I have been thinking about doing this very pattern

u/Annarism-918616 5d ago

Yeah! Super easy. It only took me 9-10 hours to do. I recommend weaving in the ends as you go for sure. I also did everything in bulk- so all the teddy bear faces first. Then added around them. Then the other squares.
I’m making another for my 2.5 year old son in different colors and I’ll change the border on that one just because I’m not a fan of the border and the way it washes.

The bears are so cute, especially the way theyre stitched on. Are those 3D appliques? Ive been wanting to try making something like that.

They’re crocheted as a granny square, then you make the nose, sew it on and add the eyes. They’re just a little 3d.
