Peaceful Progressions: Crochet Without the Guesswork
Time always feels limited when you want to crochet so you shouldn’t waste it scrambling for supplies or figuring out where you left off.
That’s why my crochet elephant lovey pattern is divided into bite-sized sections so you always know:
What you’ll crochet
Which yarns you need
What tools and pieces you’ll need
My elephant lovey pattern also comes with a Peaceful Progressions Planner that helps you finish Ellie on time and feel confident she’s gift-ready! This planner also sparks ideas for how you can package Ellie with other items to create a one-of-a-kind gift.
With my system and planner, you’ll not only enjoy the journey but finish with a handmade gift that truly feels special.

Just the essentials: weight 4 yarns, a 3.5 mm (E) hook, fiberfill stuffing, and a yarn needle. Weight 4 yarn is the sweet spot, not too thin, not too thick, which makes it easier to hold and stitch with. It’s also one of the most common yarns you’ll find, so you won’t have to hunt for something special. No safety eyes or extras required, just what you likely already have at home.
