Hello!
Boy am I glad it's Friday! It's been a busy week at work and I am ready for the weekend. I am sorry about my lack of home projects lately. I have been dealing with back pain since we moved in September and recently it's gotten to the point where I can't take it anymore! I get to start physical therapy on Monday so I hope that will help. I have been trying to rest and stretch and massage and just about everything I can think of, so the home projects have been on the back burner. I have been crocheting though. The great thing about crocheting you can do it while resting.
I have a co-worker that is having a baby girl in April and the colors in her nursery are pink and brown. I love those colors together. I knew immediately which yarn I wanted to use. It's by Loops & Threads and it's called Neopolitan. I found this on Pinterest and knew it would be perfect.

Isn't it so cute? It took no time at all to make. Casey at The Braden's was nice enough to post this pattern for free. She has a lot of great knit and crochet projects there. Head over there for this pattern, the link above goes directly to the pattern. I might head back over and add a matching beanie to this set.

I wanted to give her a matching blanket so I crocheted one of my favorite baby blanket patterns. It's called Pink Petals Baby Afghan and I have crocheted it before in all pink. You can that one here Pink Petals Baby Afghan. I loved the pattern so much I wanted to use it again.
Here it is.
I did a shell stitch along the top.
The bottom I left as is.
The pattern is basically one row of double crochet and then the next row V-stitch.
For the actual pattern you can go to All Free Crochet.
Thanks for stopping by!

Such a cute little diaper cover! You did a great job on it! Thanks for linking up to my party :)
ReplyDeleteHow adorable!! I love the yarn you chose. I can just picture a chubby little baby laying on the afghan with the diaper cover on,..... so sweet!! Thanks for sharing with us at Link It Up Thursday. I am featuring you on my facebook page.
ReplyDeleteAwww - so sweet. I may have to make some for future grandbabies. :)
ReplyDeleteSo adorable! Wish I had grandchildren! Lucky mom to get such a sweet, pretty gift for her baby.
ReplyDeleteAdorable!
ReplyDeleteHey I was just wondering the dimensions of the finished cover cause mine seems so small....I used smaller yarn worsted and so should I possibly go up a hook size I would rather it be a smidge big than too small???? Thanks
