Yellow Lily Crafts

There are a variety of patterns out there for similar projects as this, but I couldn't find one for the cocoon using bulky yarn.  I created this as I went and I think it turned out pretty decent.  It is intended to fit a newborn, but my little one hasn't arrived yet, so I haven't had the chance to test it out. The pattern is available at my Etsy shop - Yellow Lily Crafts .  Enjoy!

The Very Hungry Caterpillar Crochet Hat I got this idea and used part of the pattern from  Crochet D Lane . I chose to use a double crochet hat pattern from Oombawka Crochet Design instead of the original half-double crochet hat base that was included by Crochet D Lane.  I simply tried it on my daughter as I went and when the sizing was right, I added 3 rounds of single crochet in the green yarn. Can't wait to get a shot of my beautiful girl reading this favorite book to her new little sister with her hat on!
