I made these baby clothes for my cousin, who is having her first child.

I love red, too, and yours are so very nicely done. Lucky baby.

I particularly like the dress and the finger puppets. What kind of yarn did you use for the dress?

Thank you for the comment. I used a red crochet thread (size 10)I believe the brand was Aunt Lydia's. To get the right gauge I used three spools of thread together to get the right thickness.

Wow! It is great to see real colors for babies! I'd think babies might get tired of washed-out pastels. RED! Lucky baby!

So beautiful!! The dress is darling! And are those finger puppets? Are you going to post pattern information?

Thank you for the comment! I found the finger puppet pattern in a book called, "Crochet From the Heart: Quick Projects for Generous Giving" by Kristin Spurkland and the dress pattern I found in the crochet magazine, "Interweave Crochet" spring issue 2007

Hey guys no comments on that cool square (I'm guessing blanket) with the white circles around it, great design! What a beautiful entrance to the world she'll make all dressed up in red.

I got the idea from another afghan I saw in a magazine, I liked the circle edging, but did not like the body pattern. I took a block pattern with a circle in the middle and kept it going until I reach the desired width and length to fit all of the circles around it. The block pattern I found in the book, 200 Crochet Blocks.
