Dear Friends, Scientists tell us that we are emotionally programmed to fall in love with babies: specifically with their peekaboo eye pug noses, rosebud mouths and starfish-like fingers that wave at us from their cradles and bassinets It doesn't take a scientist to tell us that from the humble swaddling clothes of the baby Jesus to the baby afghan made for us by Grandma, there is no more ancient and honorable nesting instinct than the wish to surround our own little lovebuds with the finest of handmade layettes With our hearts already eagerly captive, keeping baby cozy and coddled with beautifully stitched blankets, booties bonnets and more, is pure delight for ardent crocheters like us! Especially when I've gathered all my favorite patterns, and yours, into this colorfully photographed, profect-packes collector's volume! I turned to my own parenting experiences, and those of our extended Annie's Attic family, to bring you so many beautiful time-tested yarn and thread designs for the making and giving In these seven chapters you'll turn to dolly and teddy toys, baby shower surprises and luscious layettes—not to mention lacy crochet to grace fashions, nursery decor, afghans and more With this book you'll never say, "My baby just doesn't have a stitch to wear!" And while crocheting, share the lullabies and nursery rhymes we've included in our chapter headings with your precious little ones! Happy Crocheting, Annie.
