Crocheted Cuddle Cocoons

I am so excited that I am learning to crochet
and more excited that I am learning to read the patterns.

This one is my favorite!
We don't know if our 5th grandbaby is a boy or girl
so I made one for each just in case!

You did a wonderful job! I wish I had a little cocoon when my kids were babies. They loved to be all bundled up and feeling safe.

I love to crochet. There are so many adorable and fun patterns to try.

Simply gorgeous and congrats on learning to read the patterns. I learned just a year or so ago and I am loving being able to make so much more than squares. :-)

What a cute idea! I have not seen one of those before, swaddle blankets but not something a easy as lovely as those. Congratulations on the new grand-baby.

Those are just beautiful! Good for you. I've never yet learned to read those instructions, though I do crochet a little now and then.

Your crochet is just beautiful. I would love to learn how to read the patterns. My grandmother taught me a little but never how to read patterns.

These are so cute! Your grandbabyontheway is going to be a very lucky child to have you as a grandma! I can't make heads or tails from the crochet directions. I'm going to have to take a beginner class and have this stuff explained to me and then have someone show me on the hook what the diagram means. I think I am a visual learner.
