This hooded kids bathrobe is crochet pattern is available for children aged 3 to 9 years old. Made with super chunky blanket yarn, its squishy, soft and utterly adorable! The cuddly dressing gown is made in one piece with no sewing, you’ll be surprised at how quickly it works up too.
How to crochet a kids bath robe
The cuddly kids bath robe is beginner skill level. It’s made entirely out of the half double crochet stitch with some simple increases. Plus, it’s made in one-piece and involves very little sewing while weaving in the ends. The super bulky yarn makes it work up really quickly. I used a 10mm crochet hook but please check your gauge and adjust your hook if you need too.
