Easy Baby Bib with Contrast Trim Crochet Pattern

free crochet pattern from cRAfterChick.com

This free crochet pattern is for an easy baby bib that even advanced beginners can make!  I was struggling to find out what to make for all the new little ones in my family for this past Christmas holiday when I stumbled across a cute cupcake bib made of fabric and thought it might turn out cute in crochet. You can never go wrong with cupcakes. 😉  I’m so glad I did.

I ended up making sixteen bibs for gifts. Yes sixteen but they whipped up so fast I was surprised, so here is what I did to make them. There are links for applique patterns I used from other places for the cupcake, car and snowman at end of pattern if you want to try them too.
