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.

Use the easy conversion chart on the navigation bar at the left, if you want to use inches instead of cms.

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!

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.
