Today I’m publishing a new crochet pattern for these very pleasing inter-linked rings, and in addition to just the pattern, I have also created a complete kit to make it super-easy for you to run these up.
These interlocking rings make a fascinating tactile toy for a baby or small child.
You can also make them using a heavy rope and they make a perfect dog toy or I’m sure you can think of many other uses!

My linked rings crochet pattern takes you step-by-step through making the design in your choice of one, two, three or four colours. You can also make the rings individually as well as linked together.
Made in DK (light worsted-weight) yarn with a 3.5mm (US: E/4) crochet hook, each ring is about 9cm (3.5 inches) in diameter, but you can always make them larger or smaller by varying your yarn and hook.
Linked Rings Crochet Pattern and Kit Links
If you’d like a head start, or to offer this as a gift to a new parent or grand-parent, the pattern is available printed and in a gift folder for gifting (100% recycled of course). I have also created a complete kit with 100% organic cotton yarn in a range of colours and your choice of natural wool stuffing or machine-washable toy stuffing.
Choose the four-colour combination you prefer:
The kit includes a blunt-tipped yarn needle and (optionally) a lovely Pony bamboo crochet hook. Also included is a recycled gift tag should you want to give the finished article as a gift.
As always, UK and US crochet versions of the pattern are available. That’s not one document with some notes to help you convert things, that’s two entirely separate documents – one on A4 paper, using British English, UK crochet terms and metric measurements, one on US Letter paper, using US English, US crochet terms and US standard measurements. I do this with the aim of making whichever pattern you choose to use as readable as possible for you.
Buy the complete kit, or a printed version of the pattern right here in my shop – both make lovely gifts for a crocheter.
You can also find the Linked Rings Crochet Kit over on Etsy.
