A baby comforter called Floppy Tot is a soft, cuddly toy designed to provide comfort and security to babies and young children. This toy is soft, plush, and easy to hold, making it perfect for little hands.

Floppy Tot appeals to children because of its soft texture and comforting presence. It can become a familiar friend that children can carry with them, helping to soothe them and provide a sense of security during naptime or when they’re feeling upset.

It’s special because it represents safety and comfort. For many children, Floppy Tot can help ease anxiety and make the big world seem a little less scary. It’s like having a constant companion that’s always there to offer a hug.

We love them so much because they remind us of the simple joys of childhood. They symbolize the innocence and purity of being young and the comfort of having a tangible source of security and love.

Knitting a Floppy Tot would be a wonderful project because it allows you to create a personal and meaningful item for a child. By choosing your own colours and patterns, you can make a one-of-a-kind comforter that carries a special touch. It’s a way to give a gift that can provide comfort and joy to a child.

Pattern Instructions and Help

What About Knitting Needles?

We use either 3mm(UK 11, US 3) needles with Double Knitting yarn.If you use chunky / bulky then 4.5mm single pointed knitting needles(UK 7, US 7) are what we use.

Is That Right? It Seems Too Small

If you look at a ball band or have knitted garments before, you will know the recommended size is for larger needles.We do this so when you knit the pieces the knitting stays dense and the toy stuffing doesn't show through.

How Do I Attach a Head to a Knitted Toy ?

The article gives help to avoid wobbly knitted heads and makes them secure for children to use.

How Do I Get Perfect Toy Eyes?

Here is a guide to guide to sewing eyes securely to your finished toy

Using Your Pattern

Do You Sell Yarn, Needles or Haberdashery?

All we do is create gorgeous toy knitting patterns.We don't sell anything else.This makes us specialists at what we do.

This also means that you are free to buy your haberdashery from your local yarn shop or any other place that you like.

Do I Need To Go And Buy More Yarn?

No. (Well, not unless you want to!) Just use up some of your stash. The patterns don't use any brand in particular. If you keep the yarn a consistent thickness for all colours and you can pretty much use what you want.

We tend to use acrylic yarn for our toys as the thickness is consistent and colours are vibrant.

We only use 2 thicknesses of yarn for all patterns. Either Double Knitting (Light Worsted, 8ply, No.3, Approx 300m/100g) or Chunky (Bulky, 16ply, No.5, Approx 150m/100g) See the listing to see which one we used.

You know that you will be able to use the pattern in future too when your stash changes. Don't be afraid to experiment with fancy yarns and thicknesses.
