Sweet girl applique

crochet sweet girl applique free pattern

Hi there,
I revised one of my older free patterns called Sweet girl applique. I made some changes, added many pictures, wrote the text clearer and it is ready for you :-) No long talks today and let's go to crochet :-)
Oh, after all I have to say something - the design of this cute little girl is not entirely mine. I tuned it to a collection of fashion brand Next 2010. Me and my little one Natalka like this little cute girl very much, so I made it as a crochet applique too.

And now, we could begin finally! :-)

  17. Hi do you have this pattern as a pdf to download? Are you on youtube with english tutorials? Do you have any free blanket baby or purse patterns or any other applique patterns? I'm not sure what sites offer free patterns as I'm still quite new to crochet as all my stuff was stolen in hospital here while I've been in for 12 weeks now.
