So after entering my giveaway, be sure to hop around and enter all of the other giveaways listed on the linky at the bottom of this post! Most of my coworkers know I crochet - mainly from the fun cat hats I wear. The other day at lunch, I got a request for a purse for a 3 year old. One small enough for them to carry around and look like a big girl without being bulky. I agreed to whip one up real quick for her. It turned out so cute, I wanted to share the pattern with you.
With an I hook and standard weight 4 acrylic (gauge not important, just make sure your stitches are tight enough to not leave holes) The American Doll giveaway is live! We are so excited to have the opportunity to join in on this event. One lucky winner will receive an American Girl Doll to call their own plus tons of clothes and accessories! It is very exciting and I hope you win!
When Kristina and I talked about joining the giveaway, I started surfing patterns because I wanted to make something special for the doll. There are actually quite a few patterns out there, some free some paid, here are my top 10 picks (click the photo to go to pattern): Kristina and I are so excited to be co-hosting the Friday Follow Along Party! Link up with us and have some fun!! It's PARTY Time! So grab a hand and follow the leader!
