Why Choose Crochet Baby Outfits?
Babies are so special. They are beloved and adorable and innocent and this is why parents and guardians have the urge to dress them up “to the nines” sometimes! If you love an old-fashioned look, choosing crochet baby outfits will help you to dress your baby boy or girl up in the most traditional and pleasing way!
People have been crocheting for centuries (the first recorded instructions for crocheting were printed in a Dutch publication way back in 1823!), so this type of baby knitwear is truly timeless. Its appeal never fades and it’s light and delicate enough to be a comfortable choice for infants, as long as silky-soft and non-toxic yarn is utilized.
Lots of Styles are Available
Newborn crochet outfits and baby crochet outfits for bigger, heavier and older infants are available. There are a lot of choices. Naturally, you may also crochet your own garments. Patterns of this type are found online and in department stores and yarn shops.
If you prefer to buy ready-made crochet garments for your baby, such as cardigans, dresses for infant girls and onesies, you’ll find some stunning examples of crochet craftsmanship via the Web. Just do a quick and simple Google search for “crochet baby outfits” and also add your child’s gender to your keywords if you wish to.

Crochet is Such a Creative Art Form
Ordering a special crocheted outfit for your tot will ensure that he or she looks wonderful. Save a very fancy outfit for a special occasion or photo shoot, or choose something less elaborate and delicate which is suitable for everyday wear…
Some crochet styles do have a more modern vibe. For example, a lot of people are buying crocheted “mermaid tails” for their baby girls. These “tails” are soft and flexible and they are worn on the bottom half of infant’s bodies.
These crocheted “tails” aren’t practical. They are basically for photo opportunities, as babies are often rather fidgety and may not enjoy wearing tails for very long! However, they are quite beautiful and special and they give infant girls (there are some boy’s “Merman” styles out there, also!) the whimsical look which is captured in baby portraits by acclaimed photographer, Anne Geddes.
You may find these unique and trendy tails at Etsy and via other online retailers. Etsy also offers a lot of other handmade styles which aren’t as unusual. It’s a good place to shop around, although it’s certainly not the only place.
