Baseball in July Baby Afghan Set

Let’s play ball! This July-themed baby afghan set includes the Baseball Diamond Afghan, a baseball cap sized for your newborn to 12 month old, oversized baseball and bat plushies, and a matching baseball cap for your American Girl doll. The baseball cap and baby afghan incorporate a corner-to-corner style technique to create the design. This set is seventh in a series of baby afghan sets using a hybrid of corner-to-corner and filet crochet techniques, with popcorn stitches added to enhance the design.

The American Girl baseball cap is also included in the “Year of American Girl Hats & More…” pattern set.

You can learn this C2C-filet hybrid technique on my YouTube Channel. You can also read more about it, and the various ways it is used, on my blog: Corner-to-Corner & Filet Crochet Hybrid Technique.
