Notes

6-30-10 I was wondering if a 6x6” bib would do any good. Are babies that small when they start to need a bib? I also had my own cotton yarn, so I decided to double-strand it and switch up a hook size. This makes the bib about 8x8”.

Made the following mods:

Used I/5.5mm hook & double-stranded sport yarn for main body. Result was 8x8” bib instead of 6x6”.
