[Nfb-krafters-korner] crochet patterns for baby

[qubit]

Hi Carol, and congratulations!!! :) :) :)
One thing you could make is one of those zigzag crocheted afghans, made 
small and from baby yarn.  It would look really cute as a baby blanket, and 
as the little one grows, he/she will probably enjoy looking at the zig zaggy 
pattern and the colors you chose to put in it.
You can actually make any variation you want on the zig zags.  For example, 
I have done swatches with the increases and decreases spread out slightly, 
and the resulting fabric is wavy instead of sharp zigzags.
That's the only solid idea I have so far.  It is nice because it does not 
have holes for fingers to come through.
If I think of anything else I'll ppass it along.

Subject: [Nfb-krafters-korner] crochet patterns for baby


Hello all, On Christmas day my son announced to me that I will be
a grandma for the first time.  Now that I am almost over the
shock, I am looking for crochet patterns for baby items.

If anyone has a pattern for any baby item that is not made with
shells or any other open stitch, I would love to have it.  In my
experience, tiny fingers easily get caught In large stitches, so
I would like to avoid them.

Thank you.

Carol
