This is a completely different looking tiny tree.  Think of the things you could do to embellish this one!  Buy a strand of those tiny plastic ‘brass’ ornaments and tie them on.  Or add some beads.  Don’t limit yourself to white.  What about a tie-dye Christmas tree?  A pink one?  Your favorite color?  Make it your own!  The pattern is free right here.

I think these are adorable as shown, but…..Why not work them up in a variegated or shaded green yarn to get more dimension?  I think that would be perfect!  These are super simple and can be embellished as I’ve stated for the others here.  I also think they would be uniquely charming worked up in the Christmas yarn that is off white with a gold metallic thread in it.  This is another, very adaptable pattern. Get it here.  These are only about 3.5 inches high.

Rounding out My Top Five today is this clever little Crocodile Stitch Tree that will delight everyone who sees it.  Work it up in thread or yarn.  Make it any color.  Embellished or not, this one is a winner!  You can get the pattern here.

  1. These are Sooooo Great! Maybe somebody out there can help… Someone put in a “L©©King for pattern request”. It’s a Crocheted, partially sewed, Holiday Mouse Air freshener cover. (Free) I looked, but everything is all on ETSY. So, I THO’T that I could help in some way. Other than that, these trees look like they could slide over air-fresheners too! Thanks, Jd! Great patterns!

Vintage Crochet Baby Dress Pattern Review

There is something especially charming about a vintage baby dress pattern, and this Crocheted Cutie Dress #3112 has all the details that make older crochet designs so appealing.

The dress features a neatly shaped bodice, short sleeves, contrast stripes and a full lace skirt with a scalloped finish. It has that classic heirloom look without feeling overly formal, which makes it suitable for birthdays, family photos, baby showers or simply as a special handmade outfit.

One of the nicest things about this design is the balance between the structured upper section and the much softer, more decorative skirt. The bodice is worked in a simple repeating texture, while the skirt opens into a detailed lace pattern that gives the dress plenty of movement and fullness. The white trim around the neckline, sleeves and hem also helps define the shape beautifully.

The pattern includes instructions for sizes 1 and 2, with the second size shown in parentheses throughout. As with many vintage patterns, the sizing does not line up neatly with modern age labels, so it is important to check the gauge and finished proportions rather than relying on the size number alone.

This would be best suited to an intermediate crocheter, or a confident beginner who is comfortable reading traditional pattern instructions. The design uses chain stitches, single crochet, double crochet, treble crochet, colour changes, shaping, repeated lace sections and separate pieces that are sewn together during finishing.

The sleeves and collar are made separately and attached to the completed bodice. The back is finished with three buttons, giving the dress a practical opening while keeping the front clean and decorative.

The original version uses pink and white mercerized crochet cotton, but the design works beautifully in more modern combinations too. Sage and cream give it a soft botanical feel, lemon and white make it fresh and summery, while orange and ivory create a much warmer retro look.

Because the pattern was originally written for vintage crochet cotton and a steel hook, I would strongly recommend making a gauge swatch before beginning. Modern threads and hook-sizing systems can vary, and the bodice needs to fit correctly before the lace skirt is added.

The professionally reformatted PDF is much easier to follow than an unedited scan. It keeps the original stitch counts and construction while improving spacing and readability. It also includes a modern mockup and the original vintage reference image, which is helpful when visualising the finished shape.

Overall, this is a lovely pattern for anyone who enjoys making vintage-inspired baby clothes. The lace skirt is the real highlight, but the striped bodice and matching collar give the finished dress a polished, complete look.
