The Inspiration + Design

I’ve always loved vintage silhouettes and making a baby set with a classic bonnet & bloomers is just my style! I wanted to make a couple of basic, classic pieces that are just the right thing for sweet new babies.

The bonnet is extremely simple in construction and works up very quickly in the round and then in turned rows.

The bloomers are also simple in the shape but with a textured waistband and secure drawstring. This allows for the fit to be adjustable when dressing and undressing the baby.

The perfect crochet baby set  – beginners included!

A simple pattern with video tutorials to help out the beginner crocheter make this crochet baby set with ease. Full videos are embedded in the written pattern below so just scroll on down for those!

I chose very simple stitches in order to keep this crochet baby set easy and beginner friendly. I believe an advanced beginner could easily tackle this project!

Vintage style with a classic craft

My favorite style of crochet pattern is a classic, vintage style that nods to the history of the craft. Crochet is something that has been around for generations and I love designs that acknowledge that history in a timeless and classic way. That’s why this crochet baby set is so timeless and elegant.

New baby gift giving is easy with this set

If you’re in need of the perfect baby shower gift, this crochet baby set would be a lovely gift along with a book of nursery rhymes!

It can even be worked up last minute! It took me less than two hours to make both the bonnet and the bloomers so as long as you have some weight 4 worsted yarn on hand (preferably of the baby variety), this crochet baby set can be done and ready to gift in an afternoon.

Super soft baby yarn

For this crochet baby set I chose to use Lion Brand Feels Like Butta yarn from Michaels. This yarn has a suede-like feel and is so super soft – the name really doesn’t lie! There are some gorgeous muted pastel tones in this yarn line that are absolutely perfect for our vintage style crochet baby set. They look almost worn in and aged in the most delicate way even when they’re fresh off the hook.

I used the colorways blossom and sage for my samples but all the colors of this yarn that I saw at Michaels would make a gorgeous vintage crochet baby set. Here are the ones that I saw at my local Michaels – you could even choose a color to match the nursery of the new baby!

A truly beginner friendly pattern

A crochet baby hat might be the sweetest thing to make – and some of the easiest! For those of you that might be brand new to crochet, don’t worry! I’ll walk you through this pattern with written instructions as well as a full video tutorial. I chose really simple stitches for this pattern so you can follow along without expert-level ability. Just be patient with yourself and have fun!

The Inspiration + Design

When I was pregnant with my son Parker, I wanted to make a cute newborn set for him! I had trouble finding a boyish set that I loved so I set out to design my own. This was one of the very first patterns I posted on my blog and I’m so glad you’ve loved it as much as I have over the years. I made only a newborn hat in the original post but I’ve scaled the pattern to include hats for all baby sizes, preschoolers and children! Yay!

This crochet baby hat is part of a set – see the matching baby booties here & the matching diaper cover here.

This set is a great gift for baby showers or new additions to family and friends’ families, and it’s a very gender neutral pattern. I’ve got it pictured here in the classic blue and pink as well as a gorgeous grey marble. I love modern baby items that are simplistic in design and can work for any mom’s style! Click here to check out all my kids crochet patterns.

I wish I’d been able to get some photos of Parker in this set when he was born, but he weighed in at a whoppin’ 10 lb. 2 oz and was too chunky to fit into them! Lol!

The Yarn

I decided to use Lion Brand Vanna’s Choice yarn for this pattern as it’s a very versatile worsted weight yarn with a stunning color range. There are colors to match any baby shower or nursery theme, as well as any individual style.

However you can use any worsted weight yarn for this project! There are wonderful wool based worsted weight yarns to use for this project as well as other natural and synthetic fibers. Really, anything goes as long as you can meet the gauge listed in the pattern below.

I do have a video tutorial for the newborn size of this hat for all my visual learners below – enjoy!

Row 2: Dc in first st, *Fpdc, Dc, repeat from * across, Ch 2, turn

Rows 12-18: Dc across, Ch 2, turn
Row 19: Dc across, Ch 1, Sc around perimeter of the diaper cover, sl st to first Sc, finish off, weave ends

Now time to sew the button – be sure you sew it onto the right side! You want to identify the side of your diaper cover that is the “right side” or the side that has the ribbing from those Fpdcs and Bpdcs exposed. This will be the side that you see when the little guy is wearing the cover, not the side against his bum or diaper. Here are some photos to help you out with placing your button!

Sew your button on the side that looks like this.

Then flip it over – this is what will be the inside of the diaper cover.

Fold up the bottom portion…

….and fold the sides in securing onto the button (I didn’t write button holes into the pattern because buttoning around those Fpdcs and Bpdcs works just fine – find a space between ribbed stitches and pop that button through!)

Hi friends! I’m so excited to introduce you to Destiny from Knifty Knittings today. She’s the sweetest gal who designs gorgeous, approachable knits with the most perfect pom poms I’ve ever seen! Give her some love and enjoy her free pattern for this super cute kids pom pom scarf!

If you’d like to see the last Guest Designer Program post (a crochet pattern!) from another great yarnie, click here.

Hello there! I’m Destiny, the knitter and designer behind Knifty Knittings. I’m a born and raised Alaskan, living and knitting in Michigan with my husband and precocious toddler. You can find me and my designs over at Knifty Knittings!

I am a firm believer that pom poms make everything better. I designed this fun and simple scarf with my 3 year old in mind – I needed something that would stay put as she ran around and conquered snow hills, but also looked cute. The poms are cute, but also functional! Wrap the scarf around, tie the poms, and it won’t budge!

PATTERNS I LOVE (& you should too)

1. Crochet Homemaker Gingham Throw / 2. Crochet Everyday Cardigan / 3. Crochet Le Nuage Wrap/Triangle Scarf

I used Lion Brand Wool-Ease Thick and Quick for this project, but any super bulky weight yarn (category 6) should work just fine. For a non-wool alternative, try Lion Brand Hometown USA or the new Lion Brand Thick & Quick – the cousin of WETQ now without wool! Let’s get started…

Some people call me a hipster mom. My three month old son is my first baby and I still like to dress and look somewhat put together – but let’s be honest, there is only so put together I can be when I haven’t slept in months! And while being in DESPERATE need of some coffee, but that’s another story for another time.

Being that I like to put myself together, you know my little man has to be looking adorable too. Although he HATES wearing hats, which I found out the hard way after trying this cute little hat on him, I still love this one!

It’s slightly slouchy in the back, but not too big that it would get in the way of playing. Just a relaxed fit!

The sizing below is pretty accurate, but my little guy’s noggin is in the 95th percentile, so although he’s three months old, he’s wearing the 6-9 month size.

Hope you all enjoy this adorably hip slouchy baby beanie!

If you haven’t rushed to your nearest theater to see Finding Dory yet, you need to! Stop reading right now. Rush to the theater.

I’ll wait.

Okay, now that we all know what an amazing movie it is (I venture to go as far as saying it’s as good as Finding Nemo!) let’s proceed with today’s project!

As Dory is the heroin of the movie, it makes sense that Pixar gave us a bit more background on her, and everyone is loving Baby Dory! She’s so small, cute, and cuddly even if a bit confused. But hey, that’s Dory.

So I whipped up a Baby Dory hat for all the munchkins out there who want to look just like their favorite fish!

Make this adorable hat in any size below, then make and add the character embellishments.

OH – and just keep swimming!

PATTERN:
Materials:
-Worsted weight yarn, I used Lion Brand Vanna’s Choice in Sapphire, Mustard, White, Black, and Raspberry
-Size I 5.5mm crochet hook
-Tapestry needle

Hat:
*No matter the size, use Sapphire for the hat.
*After making the body of the hat, continue with earflap pattern below.

Newborn baby

The post Baby Dory Inspired Crochet Hat appeared first on Sewrella.

My little baby boy is kicking around and making sure I know he’s there – which is an incredible feeling!

It is, though, making me more and more aware everyday of how much has to be done before his big arrival.

In an effort to calm this anxiety what is a girl to do but pick up her crochet hook and make something for her baby to be?

This project had to be quick and simple though as my checklist is long and there is no time to waste!

So I made the simplest baby beanie for my sweet little guy in a fun cotton candy colored color way.

I know this little hat brightened my day and I can’t wait to pop it on his little noggin!

The hat I made is in a NEWBORN size – perfect for tiny little cuties.

PATTERN:

Materials
-Worsted weight yarn (I used Joann’s Big Twist in Nursery Rhyme Variegated)
-Size H 5mm crochet hook
-Tapestry needle

Begin with a magic ring, Ch 2, 11 Dc in magic ring, sl st to join, Ch 2
Round 2: 2 Dc in each st around, sl st to join, Ch 2
Round 3: *2 Dc in first st, Dc in next st*, repeat from * around, sl st to join, Ch 2
Round 4: *2 Dc in first st, Dc in next 2 sts*, repeat from * around, sl st to join, Ch 2
Round 5-10: Dc in each st around, sl st to join, Ch 2
Round 11: Sc in each st around, sl st to join, finish off, weave ends

This beanie is so quick and easy – it will probably only take you 30 minutes to whip up!

This is also a great pattern to use for quick donation beanies. Hospitals and NICUs are always in need of handmade donated items and these take very little time to whip up!
