New Petal Baby Blanket and First Bear Crochet Pattern

Perfect for that new baby. Pattern includes detailed instructions for blanket (approx. 35 x 40") and a baby's first bear. Lots of pictures and tips to help you finish your blanket and bear. Bear has stitched eyes and blanket is soft and washable, perfect for lots of hugs. 


Sample was made with Caron Simply Soft Baby Yarn (lovely by the way) in Tiny Sprite, My Princess, Baby Pink and My Sunshine. You will need 3 skeins of Tiny Sprite and 2 skeins of each of the other colors to finish both the blanket and bear. Uses a size F (3.75 mm) and size I (5.5 mm) crochet hook. 
Skill level = advanced beginner/intermediate. Bear is crocheted in the round. 
Since a different color is used for each individual row in the blanket there are a lot of ends to weave in, but the ending results are worth the extra work.

Sometimes You Have To Set It Aside

For several weeks now I have been working on a knitting pattern (not my first attempt at writing up a knitting pattern) and as much as I love to knit, I'm frustrated. I have definitely done more un-knitting then knitting so it's time to put it aside (for another day) and get back to crocheting. 

I picked up and got back to work on a sweet baby blanket that has been patiently waiting for me in the basket next to my chair. It's almost ready for the border. I love the soft sweet colors and can't wait to share the pattern with you. I might add a small softie to go with it. Just not sure what the little softie will be yet. I'll keep you posted. 

Loving the Caron Simply Baby Yarn, soft and washable.

New Huggable Baby Pattern Details

Just in case you were wondering what's different about new Huggable Baby.

Huggable Baby will be approx. 19 inches tall when finished with two strands or worsted weight yarn held together and can wear newborn size clothes. There are instructions for a optional stitched bottom/bum and of course there is still that sweet belly button. The instructions are different for sizing, body and head, but similar for hands and feet. So Cute Baby is made with one strand of worsted weight yarn and should be about 15" tall when completed.

Happy crocheting

Have you had time to crochet? Never seems to be enough time, but there has definitely been a lot of crocheting going on here this week.
