This darling crochet plaid moose lovey features an adorable moose friend on top of a snuggle-sized crochet buffalo plaid blanket. He will make the perfect gift for that baby shower that’s coming up, or a birthday or Christmas gifts for your little sweetheart! Make it with silky soft yarn so it’s perfect for Baby or kids.
Phew! Last week was super crazy, but it was so much fun to finally share all the plaid patterns I have been working on the last few months. I feel so blessed to have your support and I want to THANK YOU for your part in making Plaid Week a success and for making Whistle and Ivy a success. This blog is nothing without you.
From the release of my Plaid Collection Vol. 2 last year, everyone was very excited about my Crochet Plaid Moose Lovey, which I included exclusively in the ebook. Since then I have gotten many, many requests to sell the pattern alone, which I declined because…
Actually, I am not sure why.
I decided to change that immediately after Plaid Week this year. You can now get the single pattern for my crochet plaid moose lovey! (Get it on Ravelry or Etsy) You may already have it because you bought my ebook (THANK YOU!) but if you were holding off because this guy stole your heart, but you weren’t wanting the whole ebook, now you can get the pattern for him.
You can get the Crochet Plaid Moose Lovey in my Ravelry Shop or my Etsy Shop

You will LOVE The Endless Bundle – it’s literally ENDLESS! My membership program includes the ENTIRE Whistle and Ivy pattern library (to download and keep!) videos, full tutorials, courses, community, and much more. See you on the inside!
I actually found this lovey in a tote in my office the other day and Sis has claimed it as her own! I kept him even thought I don’t have babies anymore, but I guess he can be loved by children of all ages :)
If you are thinking of doing a plaid baby set, I have a few other patterns you might like:

xoxo,
Thank you so much for the pattern. I made this for a friend’s baby shower!
So glad you like it!
according to pinterest, this is a free pattern….then, as like with many other pattern writers, it takes you to where you can pay for the pattern. I don’t mind paying for a pattern that i really love….i just despise finding things that are posted as free patterns, only to find that they aren’t free!!!! you need to change your Pinterest ad!!!! it says that it is free!. i wanted to make this lovey for my new grandson, and i was so disappointed to learn that i had to pay for the pattern. I understand…I just wish you would change your Pinterest ad to not mislead other fellow crocheters. meanwhile, I will just search for a moose head pattern that is free, and make my own pattern comparable to your so-called free pattern. That is very misleading and disappointing. DON’T SAY IT IS FREE IF IT ISN’T!
That is not my ad, I never advertised this as free. There is a lot of “spoofing” on Pinterest, where sites scrape content from designers and creators like myself, create pins with my images and send people to their website first with a link to my blog. Most of the time these sites don’t even read the content to know whether it’s free or not. Can you please share the pin link with me so I can report it?
Hi Beth,
I just purchased the pattern, but there is no info on how much yarn is needed for each color. I am trying to use some partial yarn skeins in my stash and a general idea of what portion of the Red Heart Skein you used for each color would help. I can extrapolate from there. Thanks.

For the plaid, it is not very much at all. Less than 1/4 skein for each color. And maybe 1/2 for the moose parts. Sorry it’s not more precise, I round to the nearest skein, as personal gauge of each crocheter actually affects the yardage a great deal! So less than 1 of each color.
I’m on the 1st part of the antler and I just got confused. Row 7 has enought for 19 stitches but the count is 21. At the end it said to sc 4 there is only two left which makes 19. Please help!
Hm. I wonder if you have an older out-of-date copy? My copy says a count of 19 for row 7. Can you double check? Send me an email: Bethany at whistleandivy dot com
I’ve only ever made blankets and hats. Wondering how hard it would be for me to make this lovey? Do you think I could do it with just basic knowledge of reading simple patterns?
Hi Christine! Are you familiar with increases and decreases?
Hello,

Thank you for your job it’s so cute !!

Thank you!!
Is there a way to make the moose head starting with the magic circle? I’m having trouble starting the head with chaining. Thanks
Yes, you would make a ch 3, sl st into the first ch, then work round 1 into the ch 3 ring you made.
I am really excited to try this pattern. I purchased a pattern and have a question but when I try to reply as invoice says my email says it is undeliverable. Please help!
Oh no! I am not sure what is going on. Send me an email with this contact form:

Hi, I am new to your site. I just love your crochet projects. Thank you for all your free patterns. You have helped me to be able to make some really nice things which helps me as I am on a fixed income and can not afford to purchase patterns or buy books. Thank you for helping me give gifts to my grandchildren. Love your work.
You are very welcome Kathy, thank you for your kind words!
Love him! Is there a chance you will ever design a body for him?
Hm. Yes, I could do that!
Wow it’s so cute… Don’t feel like moving it out of sight
So cute!
Thank you!
I just purchased the moose lovey and I can’t get it to print. I am sure it is something I am doing but what is it that I am doing wrong?
I have no idea, I am sorry! You should simply hit “print” but if its not printing there is a problem with your printer.
