In honor of baseball’s Spring Training, today’s FREE crochet pattern is a baseball cap for babies!
This Spring Training Cap pattern was designed by Linda Permann for the Mar/April 2012 issue of Crochet Today magazine. The pattern is available for FREE here.
Isn’t this baby adorable? Of course, this baseball cap would look great on any baby!

If you love bunnies, you’re going to love today’s FREE crochet pattern!
This is the Spring Bunnies pattern by Stephanie Jessica Lau of the All About Ami website. You can find this FREE pattern here. I think this is the 3rd FREE crochet pattern of Jessica’s that I’ve shared this month! I really like Jessica’s designs! She has a great style of designing and her projects are so cute!
I hope you’ll enjoy this FREE crochet pattern and make a spring bunny for someone you love this week!

Since Easter is coming, I’ve got another FREE Easter crochet pattern for you today. These chicks would work up in very little time (at least for one of the chicks, not a dozen of them)!
This is the “Baby Chicks in Eggshells” pattern by Lani Herschensohn of the Red Hot Fibers website. You can find this adorable pattern here. This is what Lani wrote about the pattern:
“This pattern is a great way to make a game for young children. Mix up the baby chicks and the shells and the child learns to match their colors. It helps with their fine motor skills as they match up the correct chick with the eggshell.”
The pattern doesn’t say anything about stuffing the chicks, but I think I’d stuff them with some polyester fiberfill to help them keep their shape.
I hope you enjoy this FREE crochet pattern.

I love jigsaw puzzles and crochet puzzle balls are fabulous! Dedri Uys has designed a lot of them (she’s a pro with these designs!). Today’s FREE crochet pattern is one of Dedri’s patterns that is available on her website.
It’s her Amish Crochet Flower Puzzle Ball. You can find this FREE pattern here. The pattern includes a LOT of step-by-step photos. This puzzle ball is made with DK weight yarn and a size G (4 mm) crochet hook.
Dedri also has an Amamani Puzzle Balls book that is published by Annie’s. These other puzzle balls are made in the shape of animals! They’re adorable!!! You can read all about Dedri’s Amamani Puzzle Balls book in the book review I wrote in my blog post last September here.
I hope you enjoy this FREE crochet pattern and have lots of fun crocheting this flower puzzle ball!

Let’s think “spring”, shall we? Today’s FREE crochet pattern is a beautiful blanket made with Red Heart Boutique Unforgettable, which is one of my favorite yarns to use because of the gorgeous colors!

Today’s FREE crochet pattern is perfect for springtime, since spring is technically right around the corner (next week)! It’s my Mod Flower Necklace from Red Heart Yarn.
You can get this FREE crochet pattern on the Red Heart website here. I designed this necklace with a size D (3.25 mm) crochet hook and Aunt Lydia’s Baker’s Cotton. This yarn/thread has a solid color plied with white. It’s really quite nice, and it’s soft, too! You can read about Baker’s Cotton and see all of the available colors here. Because the flowers on necklaces can have a tendency to turn to the wrong side while being worn, I made double the flowers so each flower is 2-sided. And I added a button on each side, so there’s always a right side showing!
I hope you enjoy this FREE crochet pattern.
Happy crocheting,
