For the past month, I’ve been working steadily on 15-inch Angel Baby Blankets, managing to get one done over a 2-day-span of time: they are small and make up quickly, but I do have a social life, too, that thankfully keeps me out-of-house most of the daylight hours 😉 I thumbed through 3 of my favorite dog-eared stitch pattern books, and came up with some real nice designs. Most stitch patterns are too wide for such a small project … and the stitch patterns that fit perfectly get boring done over, and over, and over again: so, I reworked a few of the larger pattern stitch deigns to fit the 15-inch requirement, and I think they turned out pretty nice 😊 Blankets #3, #9, #11 are totally my own designs; I haven’t seen anything like them online or in pattern books, and I didn’t have to repeatedly recalculate the stitch count formats – I just worked them up ‘on the fly’ as I watched old black-n-white noir movies on Youtube, and sorted through my yarn stash. These patterns can be used for full sized baby blankets too: just rework the stitch count. (1) MOD PINNACLE STITCH ANGEL BABY BLANKET This pattern uses three colors; A-Mint (Boy) or Pink (Girl), B-Yellow (Boy) or Peach (Girl) & C-White. For full-size baby blanket, the pattern uses a number of ch divisible by 14 + 1, ch 2 – T. Terms used: ch = chain sts = stitches sc = Single crochet ea = Each rpt = repeat Begin with A, and make a ch of 99 sts. Row 1: 1 sc into 3rd ch from hook, *1 sc into ea of the next 5 ch, skip 3 ch, 1 sc into ea of the next 5 ch, 3 sc into the next ch, rpt from * to end of row; end with 2 sc into last ch instead of 3. Row 2: 1 ch, 1 sc into same place, *1 sc into ea of the next 5 sc, skip 2 sc, 1 sc into ea of the next 5 sc, 3 sc into next sc, rpt from * to end of row; end with 2 sc in turning st. Repeat row 2 throughout, working 2 more rows with A (4 rows total); then being color pattern as follows: 4 rows in B, 2 rows in C, 4 rows A … until you have worked a 15-inch square. Edge with C for contrast color edging along top and bottom – and having 53 sts of C down ea side. (2) MOD STRAIGHT GRANNY STITCH ANGEL BABY BLANKET This pattern is worked in a straight square (turning each end and working from side to side each row), using the granny square stitch. This pattern uses two colors; MC-Blue (Boy) or Lilac (Girl) & CC-White. For full-size baby blanket, the pattern uses multiples of 4 + 1. Terms used: MC = main color CC = contrast color T = turn ch = chain sts = stitches sc = Single crochet ea = Each rpt = repeat EO = end off I made this little blanket in one color throughout, using a contrast color for edging trim. Begin with MC, and make a ch of 65 sts. Work a foundation row of sc across; ch 3 – T. Row 1: Make 4 dc in 3rd st, *skip next 3 ch, 4 dc in next ch; rpt from * across row; end with skip 2 sts, and dc in last st. Ch 1 – T. Row 2: Sc in each dc across; ch 3-T. Row 3: Skip 1 sc, 2 dc in next sc, *skip next 3 sc, 4 dc in next sc; rpt from * to within last 2 sc, skip next sc, dc in last sc. Ch 1 – T. Row 4: repeat row 2; Ch 3 – T. Row 5: Skip 2 sc, *4 dc in next sc, skip next 3 sc; repeat from * across row, end with 3 dc in last sc. Ch 1 – T. Repeat rows 2 thru 5 for pattern for a length of 15-inches. Then work a row of sc along top edge of blanket – 2 sc in corner, sc along side edge, 2 sc in bottom corner, sc along bottom edge, 2 sc in corner, and sc along remaining side of blanket, ending with 2 sc in upper corner. EO MC and attach CC, and work a picot edging around entire blanket. Vintage Picot Edging: Make a sc in 3 sts, *ch 3-sl st into top of first ch (picot made), sc in next 3 sts, picot*; repeat from * to * for pattern. (3) MOD STAGGERED PICOT DOT STITCH ANGEL BABY BLANKET This pattern is truly my very own. I was dinking around one afternoon trying to think of a pattern I could use that would be something no one else had done … when I came up with this simple design. I liked it, so I made another one 😊 I hope you like it too 😉 This pattern uses two colors; MC-Mint (Boy) or Variegated Pink (Girl) & CC-Blue (Boy) or Pink (Girl) Terms used: MC = main color CC = contrast color T = turn ch = chain sts = stitches sc = Single crochet ea = Each rpt = repeat EO = end off I made this little blanket of staggered picots in one color throughout, using a contrast color for edging trim. Begin with MC, and make a ch of 62 sts. Work a foundation row of sc across; ch 3 – T. Rows 1 & 2: Dc across row. At end of row 2, ch 1 – T. Row 3: Sc in 3 sc, *in next st, 1 sc, ch 3, sc in same space, sc in next 3 sc; rpt from * across row, ending sc in last 3 sc. Ch 3 – T. Rows 4 thru 8: Dc across row. At end of row 8, ch 1 – T. MOD Picot 'dot' pattern stitch; back of work - making dc thru back of picot. MOD Picot 'dot' pattern stitch; back of work. MOD Picot 'dot' pattern stitch; what it looks like from the front of work. Row 9: Sc in 6 sc, *in next st, 1 sc, ch 3, sc in same space, sc in next 3 sc; rpt from * across row, ending sc in last 3 sc. Ch 3 – T. Rows 10 thru 14: Dc across row. At end of row 8, ch 1 – T. Repeat rows 3 through 14 for pattern for a length of 15-inches. Finish Boy Blanket with a Corded Edging: Along each edge of blanket, work a row of sc from left to right (backwards) – the stitches will cross over each other at the top to show a nice looking decorative beaded finish. Finish Girl Blanket with a Scallop Loop Edging: Attach yarn at a corner, and work edging as follows – 1 sc; *ch 3, skip 1 st, 1 sc. Repeat from * around entire blanket edge. (4) MOD STAGGERED SHELLS ANGEL BABY BLANKET I used a variegated yarn for this openwork shell blanket, but a solid color will work just as well. For full-size baby blanket, the pattern uses multiples of 8 +2. Terms used: MC = main color CC = contrast color T = turn ch = chain sts = stitches sc = Single crochet ea = Each rpt = repeat EO = end off Make a ch of 80 sts. Work a foundation row of sc across; ch 1 – T. Row 1: Sc in first sc, *ch 4. Skip next 3 sc, (sc, ch 3, 2 dc) in next sc, skip next 3 sc, sc in next sc; rpt from * across row. Ch 3 – T.

Repeat rows 2 & 3 for pattern to a length of 15-inches. Work a row of sc along all edges of blanket (being sure to incorporate the uneven stitches along the top of the blanket to a st count of 80, to keep the blanket square). (5) MOD STAGGERED SQUARES AND POSTS ANGEL BABY BLANKET I used a variegated yarn for this openwork shell blanket, but a solid color will work just as well. For full-size baby blanket, the pattern uses multiples of 8 + 5. Terms used: MC = main color CC = contrast color T = turn ch = chain sts = stitches sc = Single crochet ea = Each rpt = repeat EO = end off Make a ch of 75 sts. Work a foundation row of dc across; ch 3 – T. Row 1: Dc in 1st and 2nd sts, *skip next 2 sts, dc in next st, skip 2 sts, dc in next 3 sts; rpt from * across row. Ch 3 – T.

Then work a row of sc around entire blanket – having 60 sc down both sides, and 79 across top and bottom (count includes an extra sc worked in all four corners). (6) MOD PUFF STITCH ANGEL BABY BLANKET I used a variegated yarn for these openwork puff stitch blankets, but a solid color will work just as well. I used a contrast color for edging on the girl’s banket. For full-size baby blanket, the pattern uses multiples of 3 + 1. Terms used: MC = main color CC = contrast color T = turn ch = chain sts = stitches sc = Single crochet sl st = slip stitch ea = Each rpt = repeat YO = yarn over EO = end off Special Stitch Pattern – 3-Dc Puff St: (YO, insert hook in next st, yo, draw yarn through st, yo.

Hello lovlies. I hope everyone is having a fine weekend. I have a new pattern for you all today. I've been working on this on and off for some months. The idea at least. I knew what I wanted but my drafts didn't work and I kept revisiting it. I didn't want to release it until I was happy with it. Well now I am! I sat down this weekend and knew I wanted to get this little beauty finished, photographed and sorted. It is, as most of my patterns are, untested. However I have made it myself 3 times to make sure it works and I have no issues. If you find one please let me know. This pattern was born from frustration at not being able to find one. I know a lot of people out there use the cradle purse patterns to make angel baby beds, and thats great. I've done it myself and while they do work, I always had this nagging thought, that its just an afterthought using a toy pattern. I wanted something that was made FOR angels, the afterthought can be for play. I'm sure these would delight any little girl and make excellent shower gifts too but primarily, they are designed to gently hold the resting bodies of tiny angels and to give comfort to parents. Onto the logistics! Ok so, this cradle is roughly 7 inches in length and 6 inches tall from base to the highest point of the hood. It is designed for the smallest of the small. I promise Ill have larger ones up soon, right now tho lets roll with this. Anyone that can adjust easily, just add a few extra chains to the start and it will come out larger. As always, AMERICAN terms for crochet, Ive tried to remember to use both inches and cm throughout for measurements tho. Base Photo Tutorial with step by step instructions for beginners is here You will need DK weight yarn (held doubled, so 2 balls or roll half a ball off so you can use 2 strands) for the cradle DK weight yarn in contrasting colour for version 1 6.5mm and 6.00mm hook for the cradle 3.00mm hook for the flowers on variation 1 5.00mm hook for ruffles and edges on version 1 Flat colourless or one colour plastic for the base. I've tried a few different things all with success. Firstly, the clear lids from rectangle takeaway containers work wonderfully. Plastic plates (the oval disposable kind) work well too. You can also use plastic lids from ice cream containers once you clean the sticker off and plastic canvas (the kind you cross stitch with) So long as its lightweight and doesn't have bright colours or patterns on it (you'll see that through the yarn) then your good. Ribbon for version 3 1 meter (40 inches) of lace and 2 satin bows or flowers for version 3 a sewing needle and yarn needle stitch markers, these are a must. If you have none pins work just as well. The Base - Make 2 NOTE: 2hd = make 2 hdc in the same stitch hdc2tg = hdc 2 together. 6.5mm 1. ch10 2. hdc 3 times in the second from hook and the next 7 chains, work 3 hdc into the last ch. Now working on the other side, hdc in the next 7, hdc in the last (same as starting chain), join 3. ch2, hdc in the same st as chain, 2hdc in the next 2 st, hdc next 7, 2hdc next 3 st, hdc next 8, join 4. ch2, hdc, 2hdc, hdc, 2hdc, hdc, 2hdc, hdc in the next 7 stitched, 2hdc, hdc, 2hdc, hdc, 2hdc, hdc in the next 8 stitches, join 5. ch2, hdc in the next 2, 2hdc, hdc in the next 2, 2hdc, hdc in the next 2, 2hdc, hdc in the next 7, 2hdc, hdc in the next 2, 2hdc, hdc in the next 2, 2hdc, hdc in the next 9, join. Finish off, weave in ends You should have this after 3. Putting the base together. Cut out your insert slightly smaller then the base size. We are going to sandwich the plastic between the 2 base pieces to make the whole bed alot more sturdy. Holding the pieces so the plastic is on the inside, join your yarn on any stitch on an end piece, towards the centre. Stitching through both pieces, single crocher the entire way around. I find it helps if I use stitch markers in each corner to hold everything in place while Im doing this round, to stop the plastic sliding out. The Sides 1. ch2, hdc in the back loops only all around, join 2. Drop to a 6mm hook and from here on out we'll be sc in a continual round, no joins. sc in each st around until the sides measure roughly 2.5-3 inches tall The Hood Find the centre of one of the ends and count off eight stitches either side (mark them with stitch markers), sc around until your last stitch is in the 8th st you marked to the left of the centre. 1. ch2, turn, hdc across to the 8th stitch on the opposite side of the centre 2. ch2, turn, hdc in each hdc across (16) 3. ch2, turn, hdc in the next 6, hdc2tg twice, hdc in the last 6 (14) 4. ch2, turn, hdc in the next 4, hdc2tg 3 times, hdc last 4 (11) 5. ch2, turn, hdc, hdc2tg 4 times, hdc in the last 2. finish off leaving a 6 inch tail to sew the top closed Flip the hood inside out and line up the centre seam. sew it closed and turn the hood back in the right way. That completes the basic cradle. You can choose to decorate it your own way or you can read on for 3 decoration variations. Version 1. Ruffles and Flowers Take a contrasting yarn (Im using Baby Belle Lullabye which is a DK weight yarn in bamboo which has a lovely light drape) and a 5mm hook. We're going to create a ruffle on the bottom of the cradle using the leftover loops from our bacl loop only row. You can see them sticking out. Take your hook and slide it under the stitch and join your yarn with a sl st. ch3, dc three more in the same stitch. Then dc 4 times in every stitch around the bace. When you get back to the start join with a slst to the top of the ch3 we started with. Finish off and weave in ends. With the same colour join the yarn to the edge of the cradle and sc around the entire opening, being careful to evenly space the stitched when you work your way around the hood section. join to the forst st and finish of, weaving in ends 5 point mini flowers Using the same yarn and a 3mm hook ch7, slst to the 1st chain. ch5, sl st to the first chain. Repeat 3 more times so you have 5 petal. sl st to the first and leave along tail for sewing to cradle. Attach one to the corner of each side of the hood. Version 2. Ribbons and Bows Using thin satin ribbon to crochet with, and leaving a long tail (8 or so inches) join 2 stitches to the left of the front center and single crochet around the entire cradle, careful to space the stitches out over the hood. Crochet around until you are 2 stitches to the right of the front center and finish off leaving a long tail. Using both tail pieces make a bow. Trim the ties. 3. Sewn with lace. Take a piece of lace or ribbon that is long enough to go around the entire cradle and then with extra for gathering, my piece is about 36 inches or 90cm long and was just long enough, if you prefer more ruffles aim for a meter long. You can also get pre ruffled laces, the kind used for bed dolls is especially good for this. I fold over small sections and sew them down as Im going. Starting on the side just below the hood corner attach your cotton and sew the lace around the edge, gathering or pleating as you go to create ruffles. Sew a small satin flower or bow to the center of both the hood and the front of the cradle. RAVELRY PAGE HERE Thats it guys. Honestly there are so so many more ways you could decorate these, unfortunately my embellishment box is a bit low on supplies so I just used what I had on hand but I'm sure you can think of alot more. The best part is they can be as simple as you like and still look stunning, and are very gender neutral! Feel free to share your finished ones on Ravelry. I know Ive said it before but adding projects on there means more people will see the pattern, become aware of the need for these items and maybe make some themselves and thats a massive win/win! Massive thanks to Amie and Coco for helping me name it <3
Update July 2013 - I am now moving all the new angel baby things over to a new blog address: http://lilysangelcloset.blogspot.com/. I'm planning to leave the patterns and info that are here on this blog - but for all the current updates check the new blog - which will also have donations and other patterns and information about Lily's Angel Closet - the closet in my new house full of angel baby outfits, blankets, and other angel baby crafts. It's been nearly a year since I started working on Angel Baby outfits. If you want to know why I do this, you can read that HERE. I started writing patterns to help anyone else who wanted to do this too. By now those posts are all over the blog so I thought I'd try to get them all in a place all together. I have gotten most of my information from THIS blog. Heidi Vawdrey is the one who keeps the blog up. She has a room full of Angel Baby things. Let me know if you need her contact information. I send all the outfits I make to her and she distributes them. Full set - kimono, diaper, hat, blanket These outfits are donated to families who have lost a baby prematurely. The outfits I make generally fit a baby born between 20 and 30 weeks. We crochet they tiniest outfits made for these sweet little babies. Bigger outfits are sewn but there is only so small that the machines can sew things. That's where these outfits are needed. These outfits can be crocheted bigger, but it takes a LOT more time and the main need we fill is for the tinier outfits. Here is a picture of a sweet angel wearing one of these crocheted outfits: Photo used with permission from Mom and the photographer - please do not share without permission I am hoping to get a few more pictures like these to post. I know these are personal pictures, but if you feel you could share your pictures let me know. I would be grateful to have some pictures to show why I do this. If you would like to share your story let me know. I can add links on this page for angel stories. Yarn: I use the Caron Simply Soft yarn for these outfits. It is a thinner yarn but really soft. Walmart usually has a decent price on this type of yarn. They will also price match any ad so you can get an even better deal if you're watching. Places like Joann's and Michaels also carry this yarn. They're usually more expensive but they do have sales. You can make these outfits out of almost any yarn - I just prefer how soft these are. If you use a thicker yarn your outfit will turn out bigger. If you use a thinner yarn they will turn out smaller. Outfits of all sizes are needed. Kimono Outfit Colors: We do a lot of white and cream outfits. These are gender neutral which work really well for any baby. Light blue and light pink are also colors we use a lot. Many angel babies are born with bruised or discolored skin. Certain colors really don't good next to that sweet baby skin. Some Heidi has warned me to stay away from are fuchsia, turquoise, bright yellow, orange, green, royal blue, and in general, really bright colors. Another thing she warns against using is variegated yarn - or yarn with more than one color. In these tiny outfits it generally turns out looking blotchy and just doesn't work well when photographing these tiny angels. If you do want to use variegated yarn, use it as more of an accent rather than the main yarn. Or just stick mostly to the basics of white, cream, blue, and pink. Simple, muted, solid colors work best. Kimono Sets - kimono and diaper - small, medium, and large patterns shown above Hats: Hats should be stretchy - very stretchy. The pattern I have on here has good stretch to it. Head are about these sizes: A small plum, an apple, a navel orange, a grapefruit, and a normal newborn size. Hats are always needed in every size. I try to make a hat or headband to match every outfit. But you could just send hats and headbands. They are very needed and basic colored hats can go with any outfit. I make the hats a little longer than I think they will need to be. Then the brim can be rolled up if needed. 16 week(small) set - with ruffles on the sleeves and on the bottom of the kimono, bauble blanket Blankets: Crochet blankets that match the outfits are great but not necessary. Blankets can be used any size between 12 inches X 12 inches and 24 inches by 24 inches. Blankets with tiny or no holes are best because tiny fingers and toes get caught in them. The easiest way I've found to test if a blanket will be the right size for the outfit is to fold the blanket in quarters, then lay the outfit over the blanket. The outfits should be about the same length as the blanket folded in quarters. It's not a perfect measurement, but it generally works. Note: long lacy gowns don't really work this exact same way - but if they have long sleeves the quarter should be about the same as the distance from the end of one sleeve to the other sleeve. Outfit set - Kimono, diaper, hat/headband Diapers: We recently teamed up with Teeny Tears, and organization that sews diapers for angel babies. They send two diapers out each time - one for baby to wear for burial and one for the families to keep. I used their pattern for a model for the crochet diapers. You can donate JUST diapers through Teeny Tears - their blog will give you all the info you need for donating through them. They also love to send outfits and blankets with the diapers. The patterns I use most commonly are at the bottom of this page. I didn't come up with the original ideas behind any of these patterns. I got general ideas from websites and friends. These patterns are just how I changed them to fit what we needed for angel babies. My goal for 2013 is to make 10 outfits to donate every month - here is one month: All the outfits with matching hats or bonnets and 2 diapers (Teeny Tears sends one for using and one for keeping) - some with blankets. Notice not all the colors are just the basics - but a majority are I put each outfit into a separate ziploc baggie right after I make them. This keeps them from getting dusty if it's a while before I get them sent off or before they are used. It also helps to make sure no sticky fingers get a hold of them before I get them sent. It also helps to keep all the pieces together. And this time I added a tag (best if it's in the bag with the outfit) in honor of the angels who's lives started me working on this project. You can read their story HERE. I now have a template made for these tags. If you want me to send that to you I can. If you want help making tags I can help with that too. 8 tags print on one page. Diaper Pattern - all sizes Teeny Tears small crochet diaper pattern - PDF File here Teeny Tears crochet large diaper pattern Large Kimono Pattern Kimono Dress Pattern Kimono Variations Large Kimono Pattern w/ pictures Medium & Small Kimono Pattern Extra Large Kimono Pattern - goes with the TT Large diapers Large Bunting Gown Pattern Large Bonnet pattern Medium (& small) bonnet pattern Crochet Hat Pattern Loom Knit Hats No-Sew Hats - from Sew Much to Share Bobble Blanket Pattern Jacob's Ladder Blanket Pattern Basket Weave Blanket Pattern Hidden Color Blanket Pattern Wavy Blanket Pattern Headband Pattern - there isn't much need for these and sometimes they overwhelm the tiny baby heads - so we're working on phasing this pattern out. Diaper Shirt Pattern - This is the pattern we started with. We are trying to phase out this pattern though since it fits only a limited number of babies. We are moving to making more of the kimono patterns. Diaper Shirt Pattern with pictures - This is a pattern we started with. We are trying to phase out this pattern though since it fits only a limited number of babies. We are moving to making more of the kimono patterns. Diaper Shirt with Dress & Ruffles pattern - This is a pattern we started with. We are trying to phase out this pattern though since it fits only a limited number of babies. We are moving to making more of the kimono patterns. If you or someone you know is in need of a tiny outfit please feel free to let me know. The outfits I crochet fit a baby between 15 and 25 weeks. Heidi has lots of other outfits donated that fit babies that are bigger. Both of us are willing to ship so please let us know if there is a specific need. Right now neither of us are set up to donate to hospitals or large groups - we can only help on an individual basis. If you are looking to donate you can talk to the bereavement specialist at your local hospital. They can tell you what things they need/want. Some places are pretty specific about what they will accept. If your hospital won't/can't accept outfits you've made let me know. We can always use more outfits. 16 week size kimono with ruffles on the bottom, no-sew hat (smallest size), 2 small diapers, Jacob's Ladder blanket pattern- click HERE for more info on embellishing Close up of a large kimono and bonnet - with crab stitch edge I hope this information helps. I imagine this page will be updated fairly frequently. Please leave comments if you have questions. And feel free to email me at [email protected] with any other questions you have or to let me know if you or someone you know is in need of an outfit. For the Terms of Use for all our patterns - click HERE UPDATE: Jan 2013 - There is now an Angel Baby Crafter Facebook page - a great place to share ideas and ask questions!!! This page will have links for all kinds of Angel baby crafts, not just crochet. Outfits I have donated in 2013: Jan - 13, Feb - 13, March - 10
This gorgeous little pattern is quick and easy. Little Angel Bookmark makes a great gift for those in need of prayers or comfort.
For a long time I have been coming up with my own designs, but never really thought they were good enough. Yesterday I posted a picture of some angel wings I had designed and the response amazed me and encouraged me to keep going. Thank you to all you creative people out there who boost each other and help us to feel like what we do is worth it x x It is down to those people and their kind words that got me to share this pattern. Use it to remember those you have lost, or spread love to someone in need x (Please give credit to myself for the pattern when you share pictures of your work, thank you) I've always been reminded of those we've loved and lost when I see a white feather floating down, it's comforting to think they are watching over us.
