 Animal Friends Bibs

These bibs are perfect for spring. I made a chick, lamb and bunny but the basic pattern is so easy to adapt to
almost any animal. Use your imagination and have fun coming up with your own creations.

The pattern is quick and easy to make in basic single crochet and it closes on the shoulder with a single button;
but if you prefer, you can replace the button with a Velcro fastener (Buy on Amazon http://amzn.to/2oOdK5J
(https://amzn.to/2oOdK5J)).
02:01 I added character to their faces with basic embroidery skills but you may also use
child safe eyes and if you wish, permanent marker. I like to line the main bib section with an absorbent cotton
terry cloth for extra cushy baby comfort and absorbency.
