  1. A cute baseball set. Nice to find something different for a baby boy. If a person knows the parents favorite team do the set in those colors. Even a baby girl could wear the set.
    Thank You for sharing all these nice patterns.

  4. Regarding the hat Row 9 haa been omitted from instructions, and Row 10 needs addt'l info to be clear as to what stitch to use. Am trying to make this for my 1st great grand child. Have tried several things, but none looked right. Thank you for your help. Kathy kar625@yahoo.com

  5. rnd 9: Switch to an I hook, With Red yarn, ch 3, hdc in each stitch around. join with sl st. -36 hdc. Fasten off.

    row 10: Switch to an I hook, With Red yarn, start from the back seam, the ch 3, which counts as a stitch, and count to the left 14 stitches, (including the ch 3), sl st with your red yarn, hdc in the next 9 hdc, sl st in the next. Turn

  6. Hello! I have made diaper covers before, similar to this pattern. Can you explain row 4? I think that is where I am going wrong. For rows 5-7 I have 23 in each row and so for row 8, I am one short?

    1. I didn’t realize there was a video for the diaper cover, thank you! I see where I made a mistake.... I think the dc in the 12 is missing from your pattern...

      4. Slip Stitch into the next 12 stitches, in the 12 stitch, ch 2, dc in the next 23
      stitches, leave the remaining 11 stitches unworked. Turn

      Thanks!!

  8. Do you have a video on how to do the V marks on the baseball hat that looks like a baseball?

  9. I just took yarn and a yarn needle and sewed in the stitches by criss crossing the yarn to create a v-stitch

  10. Hi. Can't wait to make this for a friend. How much yarn should I pick up? Thanks, Donna

  11. How much yarn of each color?

  12. Im so bad at keeping track of each pattern I do for how much, but I would estimate less than half of skein for both, it doesnt take much since its little items.

  13. I'm confused on row 5. It starts 11 stitches in from one side. Does it go all the way to the very end, or only to where the 12 stitches at the other end?

  14. So you will have 12 stitches slip stitched, then 23 stitches will have a dc along with your ch 2, then leave the next 11 stitches unworked, so you turn after you do the dc, so on both sides will have 12 stitches slip stitched, and 11 stitches unworked, and you will have the center of the 23 dc to work with now. hope this helps.
