Looks like you’ve gotten into the baby bib craze too. I just love crocheting bibs as they are fun and quick like dishcloths. I will have to add this cute pattern to my to-do list as you can never have enough bibs for gifts.
LOVE IT, LOVE IT, LOVE IT!!!!!!! I have a 2nd cousin waiting to be born in August, this well definitely be in my crochet stash to give to him (or her)!!!!
this is so cute. Thanks for the pattern, as I will be making a few of them for a new baby in the family this fall.
Thank you. I have a granddaughter who is 7 months, AND a new baby grandson to be born in May. What fun when I have finished crocheting the baby rug! Lovely gift idea too.

Rachel, I have a question about crocheting in the round. A pattern I have says do not join with slip stitch at end of round. Why would this be? Can crocheting in the round be done more than one way?
Thanks,
Marilyn
Hi Marilyn, yes, crocheting in the round can be done in more than one way! If the pattern you are using tells you not to join the round, then you are crocheting in a spiral. It gives the finished item a slightly different look.
