Make Binkies
When you have your binkies made you have a few options: Binky Patrol, Inc. UPS/FED EX ONLY:
Many people ask us to send patterns. We will continue to add links as people send us patterns. There are no set patterns for binkies. As long as they are soft and washable. Keep in mind the age group you are making the binky for and use basic logic.
If it is for a small child who can't walk yet, don't make it so heavy that they can't kick it off at night or with such large holes if crocheted that they can slip an arm through and get tangled.
If it is for a teen or older child, they want it snuggly -- and so it doesn't look like a "baby" blanket.
We always seem short on binkies for boys 12-18. They need them just as much as the girls. They are much taller -- Couch throw size is good for them. Any size from a stroller size that won't get caught under the wheels is also good for carseats, crib size, receiving blanket size on up to something large enough for a twin bed. Any size is welcomed. Keep the recipient in mind -- their age -- when choosing colors or patterns. My guess is an 18 year-old boy wouldn't be as keen on Elmo as a young preschooler.
If you want patterns and can't find them online - go to your local library. There are TONS of patterns in great books that you can borrow. Keep this simple, don't overthink it, please.
