cotton yarn, color yellow with blue crochet flower |
I also
wanted to mention that I think these are perfect little baby shower gifts. I mean think about it …it something all new
moms like to make sure they have secure with their babies to ensure they don’t
lose their babies pacifier or have it get dirty by it falling on the
floor. So what better way than to get
one or two of these! Attach it with the clip to their adorable outfit and no more dropping of pacifiers.
cotton yarn, color tea rose with yellow and white flower |
These are
all hand crochet by me and I used cotton yarn preferably but you can crochet it
with acrylic yarn. To me I used cotton
yarn because I think it holds its shape better and it seems sturdier to me in
holding its shape.
But I make
these off of any type of yarn. I
purchase my clips from Amazon.com and/or JoAnn’s online. I also sew cute appliques that I crochet
(flower, little whale or fish). You can even sew
ribbons on these if you want. Be creative!
Here is how I made mine…please keep in mind I am not one that writes down my stitch patterns I just do things as I go:
Crochet 4
single crochet stitches
Turnover and
single crochet in each stitch back and forth til you get the length you want
(mine are about 8 inches long no including the loop)
Then crochet
22 single crochet stitches and connect it back to where you started and slip
stich to close it and cut off the remainder
of the yarn.
Once you are
done you can pull the top of the crocheted loop of the pacifier clip and fold
over and sew with the same yarn or use sewing thread to close it.
Decorate the
top of the pacifier clip with an applique or decoration of choice (that
complements the colors of your yarn).
To attach
the pacifier to the crocheted loop, pull the loop through the pacifier ring and
pull the opposite end of the pacifier clip around the ring and through the
loop. Pull to tighten.
