The name of the skirt is a little different. I used the Wattle Stitch as the main stitch for the body of the skirt. When you think of the word wattle, you think of that fleshy, flabby stuff that is found on roosters or turkeys lol that is not the definition I wanted for the skirt. lol So I looked up the meaning of wattle and that is where I found out the name Acacia. An acacia is a type of flower that can be found in Australia and the branches and stalks are used for a type of fencing or walls. Below is a picture of an acacia flower.
If you don’t crochet or don’t have the time to make one for yourself or family or friends, I would be more than happy to crochet one for you! You can fill out the Custom Order Form below or email me at jo@joscraftyhook.com and we can discuss how to make it to fit your style, size, and color(s)!

Notes: The waistband is worked in the round. The rest of the skirt is worked in rows and are joined. Alt ch 2 or ch 2 counts as a half double crochet. There are 3 parts to the skirt, the Waist, the Hips, and the Body. Sizes range from 24” 26” 28” 30” 32” 34” 36” 38” 40” consecutively. If you need a wider waist, you can use the gauge and adjust your stitch count accordingly.
There are 2 types of ties for the waistband that can be found at the end of the pattern as another option to add to your skirt.
Gauge: US H Hook or 5mm 12 hdc x 12 rows = 4”

There is a story behind the creation of the BlueBerry Waffle Beanie. I designed a hat 2 years ago for Lion Brand Yarn and their #HatNotHate hat drive called the Blue Seuss Slouchy Hat. To show my support again this year, I designed the 2 versions of the BlueBerry Waffle Beanie. Here is what Lion Brand has to say about #HatNotHate:
“With #HatNotHate Lion Brand Yarn hopes to increase awareness on the impact of bullying has on children, teens and adults by rallying together and crafting blue hats to proudly wear throughout the month of October, National Bullying Prevention Month. With your help we hope to create a new “craftivist” movement to send the message that bullying in unacceptable.”
My daughter experienced Bullying and seen some of the harsh side effects Bullying can cause. This is why I feel SO strongly and have been designing Blue Hats to show my support against this cruel behavior. Because my daughter loves Waffles I decided to design this waffle stitch beanie to show my support. You will find 2 versions of the BlueBerry Waffle Beanie in this post.

This is my 2nd year designing a baby blanket for the Preemie Crochet Challenge. I feel strongly about showing my support because even though my daughter was born on time, she was unresponsive when she was born. The umbilical cord became wrapped around her neck during delivery and it cut off her oxygen supply. She was in hospital’s NICU for 3 days. She stayed unresponsive for hours after she was born.
My husband asked our church to pray for our daughter and God answered our prayers! Later the same day our daughter was born, she recovered! By the 3rd day she was responding well and we were able to take her home!
My baby wasn’t born premature, buy I still designed a Preemie sized blanket along with a Cradle, a Stroller and a Receiving Blanket sizes. Below you can see the different sizes done by my testers.
Here’s what Catherine had to say about this design:
Twinkle Twinkle Little Star Baby is such a fun project to
make. It would have to be one of my favourite projects so
far for 2021. The pattern is so well written, easy to
understand and works up beautifully. I found that it can be
a great scrap buster, where stitch markers are a great
help…It can be made to any size you like…Being one of
the testers I was having so much fun making it, that I
found it so hard to put my work down to do those things
like housework and other daily chores.
