Baby Bibs - Both Crochet & Knitted Patterns

{(L) Crochet Bib - (R) Knitted Bib}

This is the same pattern done both in crochet and knitted. Either way they are quick & easy to make and use for that little extra gift you were just looking for.

It's also very easy, so it makes a good project to practice
your knitting skills on.
