Here I am again, lol, 11 months later. My grandson's collection currently includes Elmo, Cookie, Oscar the Grouch, The Count, and I made Abby Cadabby for his new baby sister born last Feb. and he appropriated that. His mom says he sometimes uses a stand-in for Big Bird so for his birthday Super Grover and Big Bird are getting added to his collection. He gets so much joy from these lovies Crystal, don't know that you'll ever see this, but every time I need to make a new one I come back here for a refresher and I've used these squares for other applications as well, I love the pattern.

My daughter's friend just found out they are expecting their first child and this will be my gift to them, along with a knitted and Tunisian crochet blankets. THANK YOU Crystal so much for making this amazing baby blanket and sharing the detailed and easy to follow tutorial! There is NOTHING on the Internet/KZbin that matches it IMHO!! Very unique creation with the Sesame Street yarn, just LOVE IT!!

I made my grandson the Elmo lovey and he has remained obsessed with it for over a year, I've had to reinforce the head a couple of times. His parents say they get compliments on it all the time. I'm making 3 more for Xmas this year. I wanted to comment and hopefully bump this up into the algorithm because this pattern has been wonderful and Elmo has held up to a lot of use and washes. Thank you Crystal, I should comment more.
