Bowtie Pacifier Clip

I designed this bowtie pacifier clip so that you can remove the attachment for the pacifier if your baby no longer needs a pacifier or if you just want it to be simply a clip-on bowtie. It matches my “modern newsboy” hat. Below is the pattern.

Loop (used to attach pacifier)

Row 1: Ch 65, slst into the first ch on hook, yarn over and pull through a small loop, tie the loop in a knot so it cannot be pulled out.

Assembly

Hold main body of the bow flat so that rows 15 and 16 from the pattern are in the center and line up with the ends you sewed together.
Pinch the top and bottom of the center of the ring together, making sure to fold it inward on the two ends that were sewn together. This should form a bowtie shape. Sew the top and bottom together tightly. The front of the bow is going to be the side that is folded in on itself.

1. Take the suspender clip and slip it on the middle piece of the bow. Fold one end over the clip and sew in place as shown below.

2. Sew the middle piece of the bow on the back of the bowtie, one end at a time, making sure to pull the second end tightly around the bowtie so it helps to keep the bowtie pinched in the middle.

3. Tie the loop to the suspender clip by the small loop you created after the chain stitches.

4. Tie the other end of the pacifier clip to a pacifier.

5. Attach the suspender clip to a baby’s shirt so that the bowtie hangs in its proper place.
