It's Crochet Baby!

It's crochet baby! For that adorable little bundle of joy.

All of mine are now grown but I definitely remember receiving all the cute things for each of my little bundles.  Warm booty and beanie gift sets beautifully colored for a fashionable baby. A new addition to this gift set is the playful lovey (this was something new for me-over a full sized blanket).

The one thing these four sets have in common is that they were created using free patterns I had found on ravelry and through pinterest. I thought I would share those links with you here.

A note on the lovey-in making the giraffe lovey I followed the pattern. As I continued creating additional loveys I did a google search and came upon images of the ladybug, dog and mouse to which I created not using a pattern but creating from the photo. Still using the same basic square pattern as the giraffe.

A note on the booties regarding the two tone. I changed color after round 4 for the body of the foot and also after round 15 for the start of the heel and ending at round 20 before "sc in next 9 stitches".

I hope you find these links useful. Happy Crocheting!

The Flora Project

Flora the Book Promotion  Good morning everyone and Happy Spring! I've recently accepted a commission to create a doll to  represent the character of the book "Flora". I've been tasked with making 25 dolls to go with the book. Flora doll While making these dolls I thought I would share with you some design tips in crochet with what I've learned while making these dolls. Unfortunately I can't share the pattern itself but I can share some do's and don't(s) which may make your design projects go a bit more smoothly. For instance: Tip #1 (which I may have come to learn a bit late in the game) for a smoother finish look around the edges of sleeves and dresses use a slip stitch around the final row of the piece. The sleeve on the right is the sleeve with the slip stitch. The one on the left is not and it leaves a definite mark at the end of the row.  Let me know your thoughts about it or if you have any other suggestions to benefit all you lovely crochet-ers...
