Free baby crochet patterns for babies and toddlers

ots of free baby
crochet patterns.
I can not create a crochet pattern for crocheters in Australia or America
or any other country.
They sell other yarns than here in the Netherlands.
So I reverse;
First crochet a tension swatch ( determine
your gauge ) with your own yarn and hook size you want
Than choose your pattern here, so easy.
You are free in choosing your own yarn and hook size.
Just count your stitches and rows over 4 inch or 10 cms,
and I think I have a pattern for you
ith all the ideas to embroider a small motif, on your sweater or
cardigan, you can create the cutest baby clothes.
Finished in a few evenings and so much fun to crochet. Bring out the best in
yourself ! Design your own baby clothes for baby boy or girl.

Baby 4.5 Kg = size 62 cms = 3 months
Baby 8.2 Kg = size 74 cms = 6 months
Baby 11 Kg = size 80 cms = 9 months
Baby size 86 cms = 12 months
Baby size 92 cms = 1,5 years
Sizes and lengths are approx. , some babies are taller and bigger than
others.
Here is
a big tutorial about swatches
Use the easy conversion chart on the navigation bar at the left,
if you want to use inches instead of cms.
If you have more or lesser
rows in your tension swatch, follow the length given in cm's instead of
rows, in a pattern, this way it will fit always.
Foreign crochet and knitting patterns magazines, only give sizes in cms, try to think more in cms.
I receive a lot of email from the American knitters and crocheters, with questions like;
where is the crochet or knitting pattern ? I can not find it.
I think they mean; where is the written pattern?.
My patterns are mostly in symbol charts, so much easier.
Patterns can be written in several different ways. Crochet instructions
can be written out in abbreviations, presented as symbols, or can be a
combination of both.
While it may take a while to learn the symbols, they can save space, and
after awhile, many experienced crocheters find them easier to read.
Another good thing about crochet symbols is that they are international,
so no matter where the pattern comes from, the symbols will usually be
the same.
With a little practice, a crochet chart is easy to read and follow. Once
the symbols are familiar to you, you can see the entire patterns at a
glance. No more losing your place in lengthy row-by-row written
instructions.
With a chart based pattern you can find where you are, at one quick
glance at the chart.
With the verbiage based pattern, you have to find
the place among the words and READ.
Learning the symbols for single, double, triple and chain stitches isn't
difficult.
Once you learn these very easy symbols, crocheting will not only become
much faster for you, a whole new world opens in terms of pattern
availability simply because the symbols are more or less international.
A crocheter who doesn't read Dutch, ( that can't be too many
........ LOL .....)
BUT can read crochet symbols, can make these beautiful crochet patterns.
Here's a random chart key I pulled of the net. I think this is Italian
..
,

but look at their symbols! THEY ARE THE SAME!
So, pick up a chart based magazine and LEARN the symbols. You will be so
very glad you did, as you find your projects going much faster. You
will be pleased when you stumble upon a beautiful pattern book
published in a foreign language -- and can easily work out the pattern
for yourself.
I do this all the time, and I can read Japanese, Chinese, or Korean
symbols easily, they are all the same.
The Only Limit Is Your Imagination
Tip: You can crochet flowers and sew onto a cardigan, make one also
on the back of the cardigan!

Crochet
Tips;
single crochet = rows are equal
or nearly equal to the amount of stitches
double crochet = rows are half or nearly half to
the amount of stitches
Single crochet:
chain 1 to turn, insert hook in 1st stitch of new row.
Half double crochet: chain 2 to turn, insert hook in 2nd stitch of new
row.
Double crochet: chain 3 to turn,
insert hook in 2nd stitch of new row.
Triple crochet: chain 4
to turn, insert hook in 2nd stitch of new row.
There is no right or wrong way to
hold your hook as long as you're comfortable.
If you are simply joining a new ball
or skein of yarn in the same color, it's best to do it at the beginning
of a row because it is easier to hide the tail of the yarn. |
