Mini Crib
Crochet Pattern
Design by K. Godinez
2
http://amilovesgurumi.com/
Material: crochet hook size 2,5
Catania wool from Schachenmayr in pink and white
Margarine box or similar plastic material, I have used an plastic folder. The plastic material should not be too flexible. If you have very flexible material, you can also insert several layers into the crochet piece, so that thereby there you will get a good stability. Cardboard can also be used, but then the bed is not waterproof. It could be also a problem if the carton is flexed while you sew it or when the kids are playing with the crib.
Pipe cleaners
fiberfill
sewing needle, tapestry needle
Size: The mini crib has a height of 7 cm (2,75 inches) and a length of 10 cm (3,93 inches)
Abbreviations:
ch - chain
st - stitch
R - round or row
sc – single crochet
Number x sc – the number tells you how many times you make a single crochet
(or a dc, hdc …) in each stitch
inc - crochet two sc in one stitch
3inc – crochet three sc in one stitch
sc3tog – crochet three stitches together
(Insert hook in next stitch, yarn over, pull loop through stitch) 3 times (4 loops on hook) Now yarn over and draw yarn through all 4 loops on hook. Completed sc3tog - 2 stitches decreased.
dec – crochet two stitches together with a sc
hdc – half double crochet
dc – double crochet
tr – treble crochet
rep - repeat all stitches until end of round
sl st - slip stitch
BLO – back loops only
sc with color change: change the color on this sc (when you make this single crochet stitch, grab
the new color of your wool and pull it through the two loops on your hook).
Note: Unless indicated otherwise, the parts are worked in rounds. You can start with 2 ch or make a
magic ring. The rows should be marked with a thread.

To stabilize the mattress you need the plastic material. Measure the size of the so far crocheted
piece and then draw the shape on the plastic material. Cut off the corners, so that they are round
shaped. You need to cut out two plates!

Appliqué
To the front and the back part of the bed you can sew an Appliqué. I've written three simple
instructions for you, but perhaps you have your own wonderful ideas for your crib.
Heart (2 x)
4 x ch close it with sl st to a ring
Crochet all of the following stitches in the ring:
4 x ch, 4 x tr, 3 x dc, 2 x tr, 3 x dc, 4 x tr, 4 x ch, sl st
Cut the thread and sew it
Crown (2 x)
Crochet in rows
7 x ch
R 01 sc in second chain from hook, 5 x sc, ch, turn 6
R 02 6 x sc, 4 x ch, turn 6
R 03 skip first stitch, hdc, 5 x ch, skip one stitch, hdc
4 x ch, skip one stitch, sl st, ch turn
R 04 underneath the first chain stitches: 4 x sc
Underneath the second chain stitches: 3 x sc, 3 x ch and now crochet in the just now
first crocheted ch: 1 x sc, go ahead and then make 3 x sc
Underneath the third chain stitches: 4 x sc
sl st, cut the thread and sew it
Shamrock (2 x) 5 x ch and close it with a sl st to a ring Crochet all stitches inside the ring: sc, (3 x ch, 2 x tr, 3 x ch, sc) x 4 sl st, 6 x ch, turn, sl st in second chain from hook, 4 x sl st and make a sl st inside the ring.
Pin the appliqué with pins on the outside of the bed frame and sew it. How can you find the
outside? On the outside all stitches look alike, but on the inside of the bed frame you see the front
loops from R 14 + R 15 and R 17 + R 18, which will be used later as a help for sewing the bed
together.

Then turn the bed and sew also the bottom part from this side of the mattress to the bed frame.
Now turn around the bed again and sew the top of the mattress to the bed frame.
Sew the second bed frame to the mattress in the same way.
Then attach the bars with pins and sew them on the sides and on
the mattress.
