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
I’ve used this pattern to make weighted whales for friends of mine, and they turned out great. 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.
