Weighted plushie

Hello wonderful people of Ribblr :sparkling_heart:

So I really want to make a weighted plushie, but I have absolutely no idea what pattern to use! I can make something pretty big so don’t worry about the size. And I would prefer it to be an animal but I’m open to anything!

I’ve seen patterns for weighted ferrets, or maybe if you look on @ Loopsandknotscrochet ‘s YouTube channel, there are splitting animal crochet tutorials

Weighted pellets and put them in a tied nylon. I got the pallets from my grandma but I bet you could buy them on Amazon

I’ve used this pattern to make weighted whales for friends of mine, and they turned out great. :blush: I sewed a little pouch roughly the shape of the whale and filled it with rice so it could be microwaved and used as a hot pad for cramps as well. I filled each one with 5.5 pounds of rice, but they could have easily help more. If you do plan on making a microwaveable one, I’d recommend using cotton yarn just to be safe.

Honestly, any pattern can be weighted if you use a pouch… so pick anyone and add your weights!

So I made an elephant :elephant:


The pattern is by @Crochet With Bay on YouTube

Here’s the link

And I was really playing yarn chicken with this one, so I had to adjust a few rows so I had enough yarn.
