10+ Perfectly Giftable Rainbow Baby Crochet Patterns
For those who may not know, a rainbow baby is a baby born after a miscarriage, stillbirth, or neonatal death. Anyone who’s experienced the loss of a baby knows the painful emotions that follow are like being in the eye of the worst storm imaginable. The baby born after a loss is the beautiful rainbow that shines after the storm.

Your email when I joined said the patterns were free. I tried to get the newborn rainbow set for a newborn and it takes me to Ravlery and it is $5.00. I even went to your website and went under the free crochet patterns and it was there but still takes me to Ravlery and the cost is not free.

Hi Denise, All of the patterns that I design and post are free to a certain extent. I have patterns that are free on my blog, some that are a free Ravelry download, some that are free on the blog with additional bonuses in the purchasable pdf download, and some that are not free at all. I do understand your frustration though, thinking something is free, then finding out it is not is no fun, and if you are like me then it can feel a bit like being swindled. I assure you that was not my intent. I did post at the top of the roundup that some of the patterns that some of the patterns are free and some are not, however I do see the inaccuracy by including this post in the “free crochet patterns” menu when only some of the patterns are free, I will delete it from that menu so as to avoid further confusion. As far as the pattern costing $5, well I hope that doesn’t deter you from buying that pattern, the amount of work that goes into creating a pattern is nearly immeasurable and patrons support of up and coming makers like the one who designed this set means more than you know to us little makers. Thank you for sharing your thoughts and thank you for listening to mine. I appreciate you and I hope you keep visiting my site, maybe we’ll chat again another time 🙂
