Fox Baby Crochet Pattern

Fox Baby Crochet Pattern

Meet the adorable fox baby!!  Newborn props are always fun to make, because it is a creative way to add items to a newborn photo-shoot without having to have large props and the Fox Baby is no exception.   I don't know what it is about woodlands animals but they are just adorable and when you make them with yarn and a crochet hook, they get just a little more adorable, if that is even possible!  Newborn crochet props are a creative way to create a themed photo-shoot on the small side, you can always add larger props to bring the newborn photo-shoot together.  The beauty of crochet is even with a small newborn prop, it can capture a theme.  The Fox Baby would be adorable for a little girl or boy!
