I had another design published in Crochet Today! These Swirly Bibs appear in the May/June 09 issue. I think they are so cute!
To design these, I started with a stitch book that had the guidelines for making a small spiral (like 2 rounds), and it took me a while to figure out how to make it much bigger without the whole thing warping or curling. Since designing these I've seen there are a lot of spiral crochet things out there, but I think it was good I was forced to figure it out on my own.



Maya - those are so cute! I don't know how to crochet ... but these make me want to learn.

These are just to cute!! Is there anyway I could get the pattern. I have a bunch of neices and nephews that would be looking great in these.
Also, I'm brand new to crocheting, are these hard?

I love these! And I really want to make some for my daughter but I can't seem to find the pattern anywhere. I didn't have luck at the library. And that issue was from almost a year and a half ago. Is there any chance I could buy the pattern from you? Thanks so much!

The only really happy folk are married women and single men.
