Crocheted Baby Vest and Hat Set

Using my Ana sweater vest pattern, I crocheted this baby vest using a sport weight yarn vintage yarn called Von-Cott in baby blue.

Here is a closeup of the baby sweater vest.

Crocheted Baby Sweater Set

October 27, 2009 3 comments


Here is a baby sweater set that I crocheted for my new grand daughter. This sweater is from a free pattern called Baby It’s Cold Outside. It is worked all in one piece and is an outstanding pattern. Here is the link to the pattern found at Crochet Me. I added a matching crocheted spiral hat and the cap pattern can be found here.

The photo makes the yarn look red but it’s really more of a hot pink. I crocheted the sweater using 2 strands of Caron Simply Soft yarn and finished it off with Bernat Baby Boucle for the trim. I really enjoyed this pattern and plan to make another larger size soon.

Thanks for looking and please make it a great crafting day![…]
