Bearghan

Created for my 10-month old niece.

Pattern concept by Pat Liles and documented here. Individual square patterns are from the book '200 crochet blocks' by Jan Eaton.

The yarn is an acrylic/wool blend that is washable and durable ... just what is needed for a baby's blanket!

I wanted to make something useful but cute, so thus the Bearghan! My niece went straight for the nose :)

Very cute! I love the name "bearghan" too.

Definitely cute! I bet a squeaky nose insert would be a big hit with your niece.
