Crochet Angel Large Diaper Pattern
Made with Caron simply soft yarn - F hook
This diaper pattern typically fits 24-30 week angel babies
This pattern is not my own. I downloaded the sewing pattern for the tiny diapers from the Teeny Tears blog and then I crocheted until I had a similar size and shape.
This pattern has been approved by Teeny Tears - if you would like to donate your crocheted diapers please visit their website for more info on how you can get cards made. Please make these diapers in sets of 2. One for burial and one for a keepsake for the family. You can click on the picture below to go to their site.

Now you need to edge the whole outfit with single crochet. If you're having trouble keeping the crotch small try using a slip stitch edge for a couple rows before and after the fold.
Fold the diaper at the fold - fold the flaps around and pin them and your diaper will be all done!
