Candi Jensen, whose adorable designs were featured in Candy Tots and Candy Blankies, is back with something special for babies. From a too-cute denim-inspired jacket and a delicate wrap cardigan to whimsical South-American poncho and faux-shearling hat and booties, this stylish collection of designs will fit the younger set just fine. Beautiful full-color photographs and basic instructions accompany each project, but don’t be afraid to experiment with different yarns and colors. Warm baby up in a Pastel Parfait hat and vest set, inspired by vintage fashions; dress an All-American Girl in a red-white-and blue tank top and matching shorts; and put a little princess in the pink with a pint-sized cardigan. A complete list of yarn resources is provided in the back. The author lives in Oakland, CA.

Wonderful, easy-to-crochet clothing for babies,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Candy Babies: Cute Crochet For Wee Ones (Paperback)
I have to say that the baby on the front cover sold this book to me. How can you resist those eyes? And I'm glad because if I hadn't bought it -- I'm a knitter, not a crocheter -- I'd have missed out on some wonderful, adorable baby clothes. My niece is due any day now, and I've been whipping up ponchos and silly hats, and booties like a mad person. These patterns are remarkably easy, and have a kind of goofy charm that just works with babies.
If you have a baby to make clothes for and you're handy with yarn at all, even if you're not big on crochet, I suggest you take a look at this book. You can't fail to create memorable clothing items in almost no time at all with these patterns.

Awesome designs,

For those who want something fun to crochet for babies (without making the same old boring pastel stuff) - you have to check out this book...It's awesome! Candi's designs rock! It's my favorite and the most used book in my crochet library, and even as a beginner crocheter, I was able to make a number of items from her book without a problem!!! Totally fun and hip coats and sweaters, Ugg-style baby booties with a matching hat and jacket, crocheted dresses, even a kimono-styled dress and sweater set! Totally fun and worth every penny!

Lovely!,

This review is from: Candy Babies: Cute Crochet For Wee Ones (Paperback)
I just bought this book at my LYS and it is SO adorable! Very doable designs. Hip without all those garish colors and animal shapes that other knitting-for-kids books have. I think there was only one design that I did NOT want to do (which is a miracle for a book). This isn't really a how-to-crochet book though, so if you're looking to learn to crochet, you'll need a separate set of instructions (though there are brief instructions in the back). If you like knitting/crocheting for babies, this is a great addition to your collection.
