Well my three month old is starting to drool! So I decided I should whip up some bibs for my little "cutie". I love to make my bibs with buttons, no fuzzy velcro and they're not easily ripped off by baby. Made from cotton yarn so they are easy to care for, just throw them in the washer.I have made bibs before but the result was never consistent. I have made three bibs from this pattern. I am pretty sure it works, but let me know if you have any problems.
Enjoy!
What You'll Need
Size I Hook

I like how simple your pattern is.
ReplyDeleteThanks. Makes life a bit easier ;) plus I like the way they look.
ReplyDeleteI have been searching for a nice pattern that makes a normal shaped bib. This looks perfect! I also like the button style as opposed to ties. Can't wait to make one.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you like it :)

I'm new to crochet, and confused. For the first strap, and for row 2/3bit just says to SC 6 across, but then doesn't say anything about turning... Just to do another 6 across. How do I do this without turning? Help!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing the pattern! Can you please give me the size of this cutie bib?
ReplyDeleteThank you and regards from Holland, from Sandra.
How much yarn do you need for each bib?
ReplyDeleteThank you for an easy bib pattern!
ReplyDeleteIs the first part, the 19 stitches the bottom of the bib and the width of the bib? Doesn't seem wide enough. Using I needle and sugar and cream cotton.
ReplyDeleteThanks
I Just made one. super easy pattern and it came out very nice. Thank you so much for the pattern! It came out great!
ReplyDeleteThis is a fabulous bib pattern. I wish I'd found it 2years ago when 2 of my children were expecting the arrival of new babies. I can't wait to whip up a few of them in preparation as I'm certain there will be more grandchildren. Thank you so much for offering this as a freebie pattern. Best wishes Linda
ReplyDeleteI love your pattern as well, and how easy it is to follow, are you on Instagram? And thank you so much for sharing!!!!
ReplyDeleteI'm looking forward to whipping these up!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much, I found your pattern through Knitless knitter, Lynette and The WHOot on Pintrest. I have just finished my first bib and it looks good enough to give to a pregnant friend. I look forward to making many more. Thank you
ReplyDeleteHi! I was searching for new crochet idea to give a friend of mine who just had a baby. I made this and it turned out to be one of the best projects I've done so far! Thank you!!!! :) Can't wait to see the expression on my friend's face once I give her the present!
ReplyDeleteI made the bib but found it looked too short so I added more rows. I also had to add more rows to the straps. They looked too short and I think it would not fit around babies neck. But I found the pattern very easy and fast. Thanks
ReplyDeletePerfect and so easy!! Thank you!
ReplyDeleteExcellent instructions!
Can u pls tell me what size this ends up being. I am a tight crocheter and may need to adjust my starting chains. Many tks. Tk u also for sharing your pattern and your talent with the rest of us.
ReplyDeleteYour pattern was my third attempt at making a bib and it came out nice! The other two patterns were horrible. Thank you so much for sharing it!
ReplyDeleteI love this pattern and will be making some for I have lots of babies come this year and will be nice to make them for the new born.
