Diddy the Teddy Blanket – Free Crochet Pattern

Diddy the Teddy Blanket – Free Crochet Pattern

Diddy the Teddy Blanket – Free Crochet Pattern. My inspiration for this pattern was a request for table place settings/favours for babies that were attending a wedding.  These were made to match the wedding colours with their names embroidered on, but these can be made in any colour with or without the name.
