Clownie

The one they ask for by name.

---

Clownie started as an updated version of a vintage crocheted clown doll pattern — the kind of toy that lived in a baby's crib and then on a child's shelf for years afterward. Moms keep telling me how they received similar clown dolls from their own grandmothers and now their babies won't put Clownie down.

He's crocheted in worsted weight yarn with a fiberfilled head, making him soft enough for a newborn and sturdy enough to survive real use. The pattern includes full instructions and photos so that you can make your own special Clownie!
