Welcome to Daisy Farm Crafts and our first collection of crochet baby blanket patterns! I'm Tiffany and my four daughters and I love making baby blankets for our friends and family - a tradition that has been passed down through my family for generations. The collection we have put together in this book are 25 of our most popular baby blanket patterns from the Daisy Farm Crafts website. Our patterns have been shared on Pinterest millions of times and many hands have now made Daisy Farm Crafts baby blankets to celebrate and welcome their new ones into the world. I'm happy the patterns will now be in book form and we hope you have as much fun making them as we did! We use US crochet terms and easy to read explanations of the patterns. If we do use an abbreviation, we explain what it stands for. You can also find video tutorials for most of the patterns in the book if you need help. We love seeing what you make! Come and share with us on Facebook or Instagram. We will cheer you on!
If you love fabrics, yarns, and being creative, then you'll love the 35 great projects in My First Crochet Book.

Divided into four chapters, the book includes a level of 1, 2 or 3 for every project, and comes with easy-to-read instructions and adorable, step-by-step artworks that will guide you along the way. In Clothes and Accessories you'll find warm and cosy scarves, a beanie hat, wrist-warmers, mittens and lots more. Jewellery and Decoration has pretty flower corsages, bracelets and brooches. Then you can have a go at Bedroom Essentials, and try making a pillow or curtain tie-back for your room. Lastly, Perfect Gifts has cute ideas for toys and other pretty things you'll love to make. Finally the basic techniques section covers every crochet technique you'll need to know, as well as yarns, hooks and stitches.
This book is aimed at children aged 6 and over. Thre are easy-to-follow instructions with lively illustrations. Included are fantastic projects, all with charts and templates and everthing you need to get crocheting in no time. So, pick up a crochet hook and some wool to learn how to make Sweet Mousie, All-Together Albert, Stripy Stu and his friends, as well as some pretty flowers and a smart bag.
Included in Cute Crochet for Tiny Tots are hats, scarves, sweaters and cardigans for every occasion. Mittens and bootees for newborns are made in the softest of yarns to keep tiny toes and delicate fingers snug and warm. A floppity teddy and dress-up rag doll will quickly become firm favourites with any little one to cuddle and play with. There are also accessories to make bedrooms fun for children. There are super storage pockets to fill with toys, a wonderfully comfortable floor cushion and hanging motifs with extra-special detailing. The patterns range from the very simple to moderately challenging, so there is something here for a beginner and more experienced crocheter alike. Everything is fun to make, and you can adapt any of the designs by changing the colours to suit your child or your decor.
A Fun Way to Learn to Crochet for Kids by Rita Weiss and Jean Leinhauser introduces a new method of teaching young children the simple basics of crochet. For each crochet stitch or technique, an actual-size drawing is presented so that the child can place her work on the drawing to be sure that what she is doing is correct. Kid-friendly explanations and instructions accompany the illustrations. After learning the basics, children are invited to practice their new skills on five simple projects: In a Hurry Headband, Sacks for Your Stuff, Tablet or E-Reader Sack, All Stripes Scarf, and Roll-Up Holder for Your Hooks or Pencils.
"Hello! We're Tiffany and Hannah, the mom and daughter behind Daisy Farm Crafts, and this book is a quick reference guide for our favorite crochet stitches! Since we are often designing baby blankets, we really wanted to create a simple book where we could easily access pictures and instructions of our favorite stitches, and we thought you might enjoy one, too! We did our best to explain these stitches in a way we hope makes sense, but if you do find yourself needing some more visual help, you can find videos for all the stitches in this book on the Daisy Farm Crafts YouTube Channel. All the stitch instructions in this book are also available for free on daisyfarmcrafts.com." --
