Crochet Baby Hats With Applique's/Animal Design



Add Some Flair To Your Baby Beanies!

If you are looking for something to make your baby beanie just a little different, wacky, or just simply cute, an image search within your browser will give you a visual delight of plenty idea's!


I used my ribbed look baby beanie pattern for the hat and I found the skull and cross bones, (I had to use the way back machine to get this link) here. They may not be to every ones taste, but to some I bet they'd love em!

The hat with the little heart is my ribbed look baby beanie (link above), I found a very quick crochet heart to make and sewed it on. The other kitty hat can be found in an image search too, I did not follow a pattern, I used different sized circles and made a bow.


Once again using my ribbed look baby beanie pattern, an image search gave me plenty of idea's for a Minnie Hat. Just a pretty bow and a few buttons gave me my Minnie look.

I was inspired by several owl look, hat images to achieve the owl, on the hat below.

 Once again, I was inspired by several puppy look, hat images to achieve the puppy, on the hat below.


I used my little twister baby hat pattern and found a cute little fish applique here. I used the large guppy.

 Here are a few more that may get you started, all free on line.
cheers Cat! 







Good luck with your project, I’d love to hear your feed back.

Just a little some thing for me

I made a  scrubby dish cloth, a tawashi cloth and a simple knitted square face cloth. It's the first time I have had the knitting needles out in a long time. The scrubby was made on the knitting loom and the tawashi cloth is crocheted.
The link to the free patterns are above.


I also made some toppers for a hand towel.
It's not often that I crochet just for me.
It is a treat for myself to place in my bathrooms.

I have a little bit more of this cotton yarn left, so I'm off to look for something else to match.

World Record for Most People Crocheting

Over 400 Mets fans set Guinness World Record for most people crocheting in the same place
More than 400 Mets fans set the Guinness World Record for most people crocheting simultaneously at Citi Field Saturday.
Most crafters - 427 in all - worked on a project in Mets-appropriate orange or blue yarn, establishing the record for most people crocheting in the same place for 15 minutes.
Crochet diva Lily Chin showed up ready to set the record in a homemade Mets uniform that she had knit herself, complete with a crocheted cap and even a mitt made out of yarn.
