Alex the Blankie Bear
Crochet Pattern
Alex the Bear carries his favourite blankie everywhere he goes! This pattern works with any yarn weight and is a great way to use up your yarn scraps. You can craft your own Alex the Blankie Bear in no time! The arms can be crocheted into the body or sewed on at the end. Pictures and links to helpful articles on our website have been included to help you crochet a cuddly companion. (This is an updated pattern with different yarn and pictures from the original.)

Our patterns are written a little differently with beginner and neurodivergent crafters in mind. The abbreviated instructions are followed by a breakdown in italics, making it easier to understand what you need to crochet in each row / round. If you’ve had trouble reading crochet patterns in the past, we hope that you’ll give ours a try!
