Neighborly Crochet

Right across the street live three small children.
They are as cute as can be!
 This is a headband for "C", she is the big sister.
(I did not know her head size so this one is adjustable. :-) )
Row 1: ch's
Row 2: dc
Row 3: sc
Row 4: dc
Row 5: sl st
(Switch colors each row)
Then of course, add three granny roses.
Pattern, tutorial and video found here:
 This is for "R" he is the middle brother.
Pattern found at: Molly Makes
And this if for "E" who just came along last month.
 This is the skirt from this post;
I added straps and a little picot edge to the bottom and a head band.
For all the kiddos!!!

This was not a stash buster as it was completed in December, I was just too excited about getting to the stash-busting that I left this post in draft mode.
Much of the leftover yarn from this project was used in the stash-busting projects,
here and here and my personal favorite here.
The yarn that just keeps on giving!

    1. I would like to see her too, but I probably won't. The neighbors kind of keep to themselves and that's ok. :-)

  6. Lucky neighbours, and if I were big sister I'd be borrowing that bow tie to use as a snappy headband. :)
