This beautiful Peony Bib set is both pretty and practical as well as perfect for a special occasion. Made from 100% cotton, these bibs are absorbent making them ideal for catching dribble. The patterns are suitable for a beginner with some experience of basic crochet stitches and each bib uses less than 50g of cotton… just perfect for gifting a special little someone!
I have really enjoyed putting this beautiful Peony Bib set together and I hope that you love it just as much as me. The pattern suggests using Drops Safran 100% Cotton yarn and if you have been following my recent posts you will know this is my go to cotton yarn. The cotton makes these bibs super absorbent, so just perfect for dribbling, teething babies. Not only that, but it is also Oeko Tex standard 100 approved; which means the cotton has been certified to be free of harmful chemicals and is safe for human use, as well as being verified as both safe and non irritating to human skin.
The handy Bib printable were made for me by MJHARRISPRINTABLES. I highly recommend this shop for all of your crochet gifts, if you want to label them professionally.
This bib set would make a great baby shower gift, coupled with my free Teething ring pattern…don’t you think? So if you fancy 10% off this pattern use code Happy10… but hurry because that offer won’t be around for long!

Today I’m going to share with you my amazingly simple pattern for making Crochet Teething Rings.
The pattern is suitable for a beginner and they literally take 15 minutes to make.
Teethers, make cute baby shower gifts on their own. They also make an ideal accessory set when paired with my Spring Bunny Lovey. What’s more they are made with safety in mind and safe for baby to chew on. They are also really useful first toys to help develop Baby’s hand eye coordination and grasp.
Prefer an ad-free, printable pattern? I’ve created a tidy PDF version teething ring pattern with UK & US crochet terms included, perfect for printing or saving to your pattern library.
I have opted to use Drops Safran 100% cotton as it is not only affordable, but it has a great colour pallete too. It was also really important to me that I chose a cotton that was Oeko Tex standard 100 approved. This means the cotton has been certified to be free of harmful chemicals and is safe for human use. It has also been verified as both safe and non-irritating to human skin.

Petal Teething Ring
Begin by securing yarn around the teething ring with a slst (this does not count as a st)
28dc around teething ring
ch1 and turn,
miss a st, *9dtr in next st, miss 2 sts, slst into next st, miss 2 sts* repeat * – * 3 more times, 9dtr in next st, miss a st, slst into last st.
Because you are cramming 9dtr into one st, it is easy to miscount the 2 missed sts immediately after; as the 1st missed st tends to hide under the petal made, so if your stitch count isn’t working for you check this first!
Fasten off and weave in loose ends.
The teething rings can be washed in the washing machine, or hand washed as per preference. Always check teething ring for safety before each use.

Top Tip
Wet the crochet petals with cold water and place the teether in the freezer, for an extra boost of teething comfort
If you’re making these teethers for a baby shower or gift set, you might also like my crochet Bunny Lovey pattern — which is also quick to make and pairs beautifully with these teethers.
Ridged Teething Ring
chain stitches do not count as a stitch throughout pattern
Ch11, dc in 2nd ch from hook and in each ch along, ch1 turn (10dc)
For ridged teether work remainder of pattern in back loops only -BLO. For a smooth crochet look work sts as normal. NB/ pictures below are not worked in back loop so do not show ridged effect. See picture at the top of this post for ridged effect.
Row 2 – 21: dc in each st along, ch1, turn
Fasten off leaving a long tail for sewing.
Sew long sides of rectangle together around the teething ring, using a whip st. Fasten off and weave in ends.
If you give this teether a go, I’d absolutely love to see it.
