Sof' 'n Fuzzy Child's Coat
Dazzleaire is incredibly soft, making it a great choice for throws, scarves and sweaters. But we particulary love Dazzleaire for garments for kids. As warm and soft as hugging a kitten, Dazzleaire will make this Sof' 'n Fuzzy Child's Coat her favorite for wrapping up on chilly spring nights.

Just Plain Fun Child's Top
Kids apparel can be loads of fun to crochet. Ann E. Smith's Just Plain Fun Child's Top combines mini-granny squares with a sweet little-girl bodice that looks totally fun to wear.
