Thanks for your comment. Don't forget to share!

This has a lacy and romantic appeal to it. I like that commenters have pointed out that there's a slight problem so I'll be aware of it when working on the project. This would be cute in a young girls' bedroom. I think it would be adorable for when my granddaughter is older. It would be nice in a variety of colors to match a favorite color or room dcor. Lace is cute or I could crochet thread edging to go with the yarn,

Very interesting post. really informative. of all the blogs I have read on the same topic, this one is actually enlightening.

Parts of this pattern are a little confusing. After starting the back, I noticed the 2nd instruction says to work from *** to *** as given for Front. There is a starting *** point but no ending *** point. Am I just confused or is there an omission in the pattern instruction? I would appreciate some help with this. Thanks!

anniebugs Yes I believe there IS an omission in the pattern but an insignificant one It's the same way on the Lily Sugar 'n Cream site and in their own PDF From the way I understand this pattern when it says to work from to as given for Front you would work from that symbol to the end of the directions for the front of the pattern This item would be so handy to have in my bathroom as I have a severe shortage of countertop space I intend to make a similar item but extended in length so that I can add a third pocket piece which I will divide into four smaller pockets which will hold some of my smaller items I will extend the length at the point where it says Cont in pat until work from beg measures ins cm - my length will be about insRead More or about cm

I thought the hanging baby pocket catch all was very cute and easy to make. Thank you very much. I'm always looking for neat and easy ways to make pocket curtains.

The shoes can be found at http://www.favecrafts.com/Crochet-Socks-and-Slippers/Flower-Slippers-Crochet-Pattern

Crafter 14370, I'm confused this is not a crochet pattern for shoes. I see the slippers in one of the pouches but no pattern here. Bb Bgood I look forward to doing this pattern. Great gift also.

I was recently going to look for this crochet pattern but only for adult shoes. I haven't tried as yet but when I do and I cannot find one, I'll just increase the size of this baby one......this should work.

I have always thought that a door makes a great area to use for storage. There are so many creative ways to hang bathroom and bedroom accessories and supplies from a home office. The door itself is a blank canvas on which you can add strips of wood for holding supplies, freeing up floor and drawer space.
