More Bassinet Purses

Again with the Christmas gifts...

These are two rainbow bassinet purses I made for Christmas gifts for my daughter's two little friends.  They absolutely loved them.

I used the FREE PATTERN from Daisy Designs.

The blanket I just made up as I went along.  It's 16 dc in length then I just did sc around the edges with 3sc in each of the side dc and 9sc in the corners.  It turned out cute.  At first I wasn't sure about the rainbow yarn (Calliope), but it grew on me:






These look more difficult than they are.  The pattern even includes a diagram which helps, especially if your a visual person like me.

Crochet Hook Used:
     Size G
Yarn Used:
     Red Heart Super Saver - Baby Pink
     Red Heart Super Saver - Pale Yellow
     Red Heart Super Saver - Calliope

Dolls are from Walmart - $1/ea.

Bassinet Purse & Doll

This bassinet purse is a Christmas gift I made for a cute little 2 year old girl.  They work great for doctor/dental appointments, church, or anywhere else where your child has to wait. They are small and easy to carry.  It's basically a drawstring bag that, when turned inside-out, becomes a bassinet for a small doll.

This doll is $1 at Wal-mart.  You could also use the 5-inch Berenguer doll.  You can make little outfits for them and they're cuter!  They seem to end up being about $8-9 with shipping if you buy them individually.  You can get them for around $5 if you buy in bulk.  I'm still looking.

I didn't use a pattern for this one.  I have one of these for my daughter and I used that to make my own.  It turned out well, but I didn't write the pattern down (oops).  I did, however, find a similar  FREE PATTERN on Daisy Designs.  She also has pictures of 3 different doll choices, including the two I've mentioned.




Crochet Hook Used:
