Coats and Clark Baby Book No. 502

Coats and Clark's Baby Book was published in 1951 and has 33 patterns, including edging and inserts. Twenty-two of the patterns are crochet. They range from baby sets to blankets to bottle covers to a few toys, including one very odd clown.

The first photo below includes a fringed shawl, an interesting cat, a sacque, and baby slippers. The blanket in that photo is knitted, and the others are crocheted. The second picture has two knitted sweaters, two crocheted hats, slippers, and booties.

The dresses in the first photo below are adorable. The green one is crocheted, and the pink one is knitted. The blue set is crocheted, and one I almost chose for next week. The second photo has a carriage cover and a baby set. I'll make the little sacque in that photo for next week. 

Here's the strange clown. I think it's the legs that are creeping me out a little. The bottle cover and bib are adorable, though. I love how they used satin to edge the pink crocheted blanket. The second photo has some lovely knitted tops along with a little bonnet, slippers and mitten set.

I also considered making the blue and white sacque in the photo below on the left or the orchid one on the back cover (below right). There are just so many cute baby jackets in this booklet. The green set is knitted, as is the yellow pullover.

Next week, I'll share the baby sacque I made from this booklet.
