Baby Kylon is three months old and he is grabbing things like crazy. It seems he has asserted a preference for Granny B's handmade blanket. It appears he's given up the pacifier in exchange for sucking on the blanket. He doesn't do this with his other blankets. Lol! I'm a very proud Granny who has offered to make more if need be. ❤️ This blew my heart wide open today.

My crafter heart loves this so much! 🩷🩷🩷 My crafter heart just loved this too. I know we have had recently a bunch of threads about crochet blankets as shower gifts. I give freely and if you like it great and if you don't, I'm cool with it. But this baby has made his preference known already! I told my stepdaughter my hook is at the ready to make another. ❤️

Here's what the blanket looks like. It's got ducks on it.

I told my stepdaughter my hook is at the ready to make another. ❤️ If I were you, knowing that this is what he has picked as his lovey, I would make another identical one as fast as I could so they can be rotated as needed. Literally identical. That way they will “age” at the same rate if you KWIM. Once we knew what our kid’s lovey was we got a second one exactly like it so we could wash one while the other was in use, or heaven forbid if one should get lost our kid wouldn’t be inconsolable. It was a smart move because in the earliest years she couldn’t tell the difference and we swapped them out on the regular. Thankfully we never did lose one. She’s almost a teenager now but still keeps both of them in her bed. 🩷

She loved the blanket I made her and my sister was desperate for another so she could get it away to wash it. I did make another. She's 15 now and she still has her lovies in her bed. I made her a queen sized one a few years ago too.

Cute baby and cute blanket - a perfect pair!
One of my dearest friend’s mother made blankets for each of my three grandchildren. She made them each a crocheted snuggle blanket as well as a hand tied ‘tummy time’ floor blanket. I’m delighted that my daughters-in-law love them and have used them faithfully. We snap photos of them in use to send to my friend and her mother which just makes all of us feel warm and fuzzy.
Never underestimate the gift of handmade love.

I'm so glad they love the handmade blankets. It has been my experience over the years that most new parents are really very gracious about having a homemade blanket made for them. Babies, like anyone else, have favorites. There have been several babies I've made blankets for who really, really love them. It's really just a matter of preference and as I said in one of those threads, you just expose the baby to all the things and just let the baby choose. That's what I did with my kids. So I'm glad your kids did choose to use them..
