Crochet dolly bed and blanket

 I have been using up mums yarn. There was a box of 5 ply. I like making the C2C pattern blanket. I wanted to make a rectangular sized baby blanket but instead of decreasing on one side I mistakenly decreased on both sides making it square. By the time I realised I was not going to unpick. I continued and finished the blanket.

My work colleague has a little girl so I am giving it to her for a dolly blanket.

Years ago, mum and I, used to make a little crochet bag that also made a dolly bed. I thought I would make one for her too to use up the leftover yarns.

 It is made with an empty margarine container as the base.


Then a crochet lining for the inside


Next is the outer part of the bag


A nice frill for the top of the bag, a mattress, pillow and mini doll blanket


Put in a cute little doll/teddy


Here it is with the bigger dolly blanket


And the bag is closed ready to take and play


A very cute little set for a sweet little girl.
