Crochet Top & Diaper Cover-Hugs & Kisses

Hello, all my Country Willow Designs loyal friends.

You all don’t know, but I am expecting my 2nd grandchild at the beginning of June.  Not sure of the gender, my daughter wants to be surprised. I don’t care what he/she is as long as it is healthy.

I do love using the treble X stitch. It makes for beautiful texture and makes the top breathable. I used I Love This Cotton for this because of the comfort and softness.
