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.
