Operation Christmas Child Chelsea Sleeping Bag
With this sleeping bag complete I am done with sleeping bags for 2026. I will likely start sometime in the fall prepping for Kits for Kids and Chelsea will need a sleeping bag but since I generally start with the baby sleep sacks it could be a while after that before I get to sleeping bags again.
I was pleased to discover the Calico Critter free sleeping bag pattern works for Chelsea if I make it longer and use a bigger thread crochet hook. This makes it less bulky. For two of the places I donate Chelsea Operation Shoebox and Kits for Kids space is premium. So, when I can make something that accomplishes the same task but takes up less room it is a win.
You can find the free pattern here.
Notes:
I need a 1.5mm thread hook for this project and follow the adult critter instructions with the exception of the length of the sleeping bag.
I believe this is Aunt Lydia's Size 10 Blacklight
