This Crochet Zebra Lovey is made from a combination of my granny square pattern and Amigurumi Today’s crochet zebra pattern.
Similar to the Crochet Donkey Lovey and Crochet Horse Lovey, it’s an easy make using fingering weight yarn. This makes for a light, airy and detailed crochet piece suitable for babies of all ages.

Rnd 17: In ark grey yarn, sc in each st across working (sc, ch 2, sc) in each of the 4 corner spaces. Fasten off yarn.
At this point, your granny square should measure around 11.5 inches. Attach the head to the body. You will do this by sewing the bottom section of the head around the first row of your granny square and the forelegs to the sides.
Once that is done, embroider the eyes and nose on the head. Now you have a lovely Crochet Zebra Lovey.
