Mini Cuddly Blanket Duck Mia
quick to crochet in between other projects



-- to the pattern --

The Mini Cuddly Blanket Duck Mia is a faithful companion for every little one—to cuddle, soothe, love, play with, and snuggle...

As always, the pattern is richly illustrated and describes in detail, step by step how you can crochet this cuddly blanket yourself, even as an ambitious beginner .

Duck Mia is also wonderfully suited for leftover yarn—less than 30 g of cotton yarn are used in total.

The crocheted duck is 13.5 cm wide and 11 cm long. I used just under 30 g of cotton yarn (yardage 115 m/50 g, e.g., Gründl Cotton Fun).
