Your Questions About Crochet Patterns Baby
Sandra asks…
can anyone give me a crochet pattern to be done with bernat baby softee 100% acrylic yarn?
admin answers:
One of the easiest ones I have is to make the chain the desired length.....turn.....ch 2, in the 3rd stitich from the end 2 dc, chain 2, 1 sc in the same stitich.....continue that until the end of the chain....turn.... Repeat the pattern in the ch 2 space, continue until you have reached the size you want. Repeat pattern on the beginning end just one time, both ends will then look the same. Sometimes I go all the way around so all four sides look the same. Its very easy and its a warm one.

How do you crochet a baby blanket? Need help with instructions...?
I am trying to follow a pattern but I have no idea what it is asking me to do. I've started with my basic chain the next step is what I cannot figure out. The instructions say "shell in 6th ch from hook (first 5 skip chs count as a dc and 2 skip chs)." Any help would be helpful.
admin answers:
The instructions for the blanket start with the finished measurements, then a list of materials and hooks, then the gauge (GAUGE: 3 shell pats = 4”; 6 rows = 4”). Then there is a Note: and a Special Stitch: (NOTE: Shell pat consists o one dc and one shell. SPECIAL STITCH:Shell: Work 5 dc in the st indicated.)
Those three instructions are critical to your finished piece coming out the way you expect it to come out.
The Gauge note tells you how many of the pattern stitches are included in a 4" width of the blanket, and how many rows are included in 4" of length. Granted, matching the gauge exactly isn't as big a deal in a baby blanket as it would be in a garment. Still, if you are expecting it to be 30-12" x 41", you will not be happy if it comes out 24" x 32" or 40" x 50" (and you run out of yarn).
The Note note tells you what the pattern means when it says "Shell pat" (one shell plus one double crochet by itself).
The Special Stitch note tells you how to make a shell (Work 5 double crochets in a specific stitch).
To start the first row, you will make a "Shell pattern" (a shell and a dc). The instruction you asked about means, "Skip 5 chains, three of which will stand in for a double crochet and two of which will be the skipped chains. Then double crochet in the next stitch 5 times." Then it says "skip next 2 chs, dc in next ch;" which means "Skip the next two chains. In the following chain, make the one double crochet that separates the shells." You have now completed an edge stitch (the 5 chains at the beginning) and one shell pattern.
Next it says "* skip next 2 chs, shell in next ch, skip next 2chs, dc in next ch; repeat from * across,". What that means for you to do is skip the following two chains, then crochet five double-crochets in the next chain, then skip the next 2 chains, then crochet one double crochet in the next chain. You have now completed one single "Shell pat" and you are ready to complete the row with "Shell pats." Note the * (asterisk) at the beginning of the instruction. Then note the part of the instruction that says, "repeat from * across." The * begins a set of instructions that will be completed multiple times. It ends by telling you how many times to repeat the instruction. In this case, it says "across," which means for you to keep doing the same thing until you get to the end of the starting chain.

Looking for Crochet Pattern...think it's Popcorn Afghan. Has a cluster in middle of each square you attach....?
cluster to square by crocheting and when you are done you hand stitch all the squares together. Think it was called Popcorn Crochet Baby Afghan. Can not find this printable pattern anywhere. Thanks if you can help me.
admin answers:
Make up your own pattern for an afghan. Come up with the squares you want, and stitch them together. Play around, and make it your own.

Mandy asks…
I would like a 1950-60 pattern for a crocheted baby bonnet.?
It had a round back, then some double crochets around the face and a turned back (I think about 3 rows) of shell type scollops. I have a new great granddaughter and would love to make one of these for her. She was born the 25th of Feb, 2008, so Hope to find this pattern before she out grows it. I think there was a sweater to match, but can't find the pattern to save my life!!!
