Fuzzy Sleep Mask: Free Crochet Pattern

As part of my Pretty N Pink Travel set, I made this fuzzy sleep mask (eye cover) free crochet pattern! Do you ever go on a plane and get those cheap eye-covers so you can sleep in peaceful darkness? I wanted to make my own version of that that is high-quality, strong, soft, and suitable for every level.

Introducing the Fuzzy Sleep Mask!

This mask can be stuffed anywhere- it can fit into your FIST. What does this mean? That’s right! Bring this fashionable sleeper mask everywhere with you for a quick sleep solution.

When you want to take a quick break from napping, simply push your mask up onto your forehead. It’s so comfortable you’ll forget it’s there! And don’t even talk about the texture… I used GGH Bellina yarn for this pattern for maximum comfort and fuzziness. Think about all the possibilities! For a more laid back mask, I think normal yarn would do great. If any of you guys want to try this pattern with faux fur yarn, PLEASE CONTACT ME WITH PHOTOS. I’d love to see how that would turn out!

This sleeper mask is cute from any angle, even up on the forehead! But what about in action? Let’s get some pics of that…

When I first made this sleeper mask, I immediately started using it for myself… until my brother found it near my bed and put it on! Now I’ve been commissioned to make a blue one for his use… haha! He didn’t want to take it off 🙂

So, if you’re here for the free pattern, you’re going to get it NOW. Let’s go over some stitches and materials so we can prepare for the comfiest, coolest pattern you’ve ever made…
