[Chatty]

I've posted the pattern for my shortie sleeper (http://chattyspatterns.blogspot.com/2005/04/shortie-sleeper.html) in my pattern blog if anyone's interested.

It's really cute and I really want to make one but...what size hook and what kind of yarn did you use? I dunno if it's there but I can't find it on the pattern page. :think

Thanks

Love the pattern, thanks for sharing it.

[cajunwhacko]

I love it I love it I love it... so much for avoiding it, lol resistance is futile! I haven't looked at the pattern yet but I'm thinking that'd be perfect for this summer, since niecelet is supposed to make her appearance in June... Must resist temptation to buy more yarn... lol

Thank you for all your kind words and don't worry knotyourgrandma, it doesn't take long to make at all, I made it in just a few hours I'm sure you can too. It's a very quick and fairly easy pattern.

I love your sleeper pattern and though I don't have any babies to put in it at the moment, I want to make a few to keep on hand for pregnancy surprizes with friends. I went to your blog to print the pattern, but it doesn't have the entire thing. Is it just me? It ends on Row 7, it says

ch1, turn, sc in next 10 sc, 3 sc in next sc, sc in next 14 sc, 3 sc in next sc, sc in next 16 sc, 3 sc in next sc, sc%

and that's it...

I love this pattern too but only saw to row 7; I have 2 grandbabies coming this year & this would be adorable!:c9

[Berniluvscrochet]

Oh, I just printed it out too, and it says Row 7?!
Help?? I want to make this sooo bad!!
Berni :)

[Chatty]

It's all fixed, I have no idea what Blogger did to it but I'm sure glad that I save this stuff on Notepad.

I'm very sorry guys.

[clearwaters]

Do you think you could post the pattern here, at Crochetville, in it's entirety? I went to your blog and I still see the pattern that ends at row 7. I have already begun working on this and would really like to get the rest of the directions. Thanks a bunch.

[Berniluvscrochet]

Me too. I went to your blog, and it still has till row 7. Please.......
Berni :)

[unicorn37757]

Me too, I would love this pattern for my coming grandbabies!:c9

Crochet hook sizes H & K (I used Boye aluminum)

4 small buttons

Gauge: Size K hook-5 sc & 7 rows = 1-1/2"

Size: Newborn-3 months

Note: Try not to hold your tension too tightly.

Note: Even rows are the right side.
__________________________________________________ _______

Begin at Yoke:

ch 45 with larger size hook

Row 1: sc in 2nd ch from hook and next 6 ch. 3 sc in next ch, sc in next 8
ch, 3 sc in next ch, sc in next 10 ch, 3 sc in next ch, sc in next 8 ch, 3 sc in next ch, sc in last 7 ch

Rows 2, 4, 6, 8, 10: ch 1, turn, sc in ea sc

Row 3: ch 1, turn, sc in next 8 sc, 3 sc in next sc, sc in next 10 sc, 3 sc
in next sc, sc in next 12 sc, 3 sc in next sc, sc in next 10 sc, 3 sc in
next sc, sc in last 8 sc

Row 5: ch 1, turn, sc in next 9 sc, 3 sc in next sc, sc in next 12 sc, 3 sc

Row 9: ch 1, turn, sc in next 11 sc, 3 sc in next sc, sc in next 16 sc, 3 sc
in next sc, sc in next 18 sc, 3 sc in next sc, sc in next 16 sc, 3 sc in

Row 11: ch 1, turn, sc in next 13 sc, skip next 18 sc, sc in next 22 sc,
skip next 18 sc, sc in last 13 sc-48 sc

Rows 12-30: sc in each sc. At the end of Row 30 join with a sl st to first
st of the row to close the garment. You will now be working in rounds. 48 sc

Next 4 Rnds: ch 1, turn, sc in each sc around, join with sl st to beg sc.

Note: It's easy to miscount working these 4 rnds, make sure you count your
sts and that you still have 48 at the end.

Crotch and left leg: Right side facing, ch 8, skip 23 sc, sl st in next sc,
ch 1, sc in same sp, sc across ch-8 and back around left leg to beg sc. Do not join,
mark beg of rnd with st marker-you should have 32 sc.

Next rnd: *sc in next 6 sc, dec over next 2 sc, rep from * around-28 sc

Next rnd: work even.

Next rnd: *sc in next 5 sc, dec over next 2 sc, rep from * around-24 sc

Next 6 rnds: work even in the round, do not join rounds. Sl st in next st, end off.

Right leg: With back of sleeper facing, attach yarn with a sl st in same sc
as crotch, ch 1, sc in next sc and each sc around to front, sc in free lps
of crotch. You should have 32 sc.

Finish leg in same manner as left leg.

Front trim: Using smaller hook, attach yarn with a sl st in bottom of left
front 1 row up, ch 1, sc in ends of rows all the way to neckline, 3 sc in
corner, sc around neckline, 3 sc in corner, sc in end of each row to 1 row
before bottom. Ch 1, turn, sc in each sc around, 3 sc in corners. When going
down left front, after the corner, sc in next sc, ch 4 for button loop, *sc
in next 8 sc, ch 4, rep from * twice more, sc in each sc to end, end off.

Sew buttons opposite buttonholes

Hide all loose ends.

If you want to make this a long-legged sleeper, simply continue sc evenly
around until leg is long enough then sew or crochet bottom seam together.

Same for sleeves, if you want long sleeves, attach yarn at underarm and sc
evenly around until sleeve is long enough.

Abbreviations:

ch----chain
st----stitch
sl st-slip stitch
sc----single crochet
rnd---round
beg---begin(ning)
rep---repeat

And if it's still messed up at Blogger, then try reloading the page, I'm seeing the whole thing now.
