Crochet Apron -- Snow White (inspired)...Toddlers/Kids FREE Pattern

Snow White Apron Pattern

Size:  2T - 5
(my granddaughter is tall for a 2-year-old; this apron reaches her calves which gives plenty of years for her to wear it and to play dress up); adjust rows accordingly by increasing or decreasing rows to fit your little princess...

Materials:
--5 mm crochet hook for the apron
--4 mm crochet hook for the bow and apple applique
--Worsted Weight #4 yarn in yellow, blue, red and white and a very minimal amount of green (for apple leaf) and brown (for apple stem)
