Cocoon with Beanie Crochet Pattern

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Information about Snuggle Bug Preemie Baby Cocoon and Beanie Crochet Pattern below.

With the cocoon being part of this scrap busting event, I used 5 different crochet stitches for each part.  I used:

Half Double Crochet
Herringbone Half Double Crochet
Feather Stitch Stitch
Half Double Crochet in the Back Loop Only
Braided Puff Stitch

Notes:

The Cocoon is worked in the round.  

Some rounds of the Cocoon will have turning rows.

There will be a color change for each type of stitches used.

Due to different stitches used in each color block the Gauge will be different due to types of stitches used.

Each designer uses a different technique for their Puff Stitches, so the Right Handed Video Tutorial may be different from how the Special Stitch instructions for the Puff Stitch are written.

The Braided Puff Stitches are created using a 2 row repeat using my version of the Puff Stitch.

Placing a SM in 1st st of every round keeps a nice even st and it helps you not lose your place when going into the next round.

 

There are Left and Right Handed Video Tutorials inside the Snuggle Bug Preemie Baby Cocoon Crochet Pattern.

Size:
8” x 13”

Materials:
300-500 yds of #4 Ply Worsted/Aran Weight Yarn
US H Crochet Hook or 5 mm
Scissors
Tapestry Needle

The baby cocoon can be customized using the Gauge below.

Gauge:
US H Crochet Hook or 5 mm
16 hdc x 8 rows = 4”

 

You can find the premium copy of the Snuggle Bug Preemie Cocoon with Beanie Crochet Pattern at my Ravelry Store and LoveCrafts starting January 19, 2023.

The Acacia Skirt Crochet Pattern was released in early September.  I am so proud of this new design, as this is my first skirt crochet pattern.  Let me tell ya, it won’t be my last!

This new design has a technique I have never used before, it uses your body type.  It can be customized to fit you from your waist to your hips to the body of the skirt!  There are also 3 length suggestions inside the pattern that you can choose from or you can crochet it to fit your own custom length.

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:

Whitney Dunning of Pine Tree Crochet shares another free handbag crochet pattern, the Grab and Go Clutch.  This bag uses the Moss Stitch to create the beautiful design.  The Grab and Go Clutch uses very little yarn, so you can use those scraps of yarn you have laying around.

My free crochet pattern I am sharing is for my Sharon Bag.  I designed this bag for my mom, Sharon, so she could carry around her iPad.  In designing my handbag I used Cables/Braids using the Front Post and Back Post Double Crochet.  The Sharon Bag is worked in the round going into both sides of your starting chain.  There are 2 sizes to choose from, Small and Large.
