One thing that makes this a great baby shower gift is that the baby will need them soon, but not right away. That means that you don’t have to worry too much about gauge. Any size that you make the booties in is a size that baby can grow into. If you have more advanced crochet skills, you can create colorful designs with unique shapes. Animal crochet hats are popular for babies; they make a terrific first costume or photo prop. If you want to make a baby blanket quickly, look for crochet patterns with the following features:
Designed with bulky or super bulky yarnMade using a large crochet hook such as a size M or biggerCrocheted with simple stitches but ones taller than single crochet
