Moreover, although they have to be simple enough to make, they also should pose a fun challenge for a crocheter of any ability. Thus, with these conditions in mind, here is a collection of 5 patterns that will surely check off the right boxes and fill this wonderful niche.

This is a beautiful pattern from a larger collection also entitled Hugs & Kisses. It’s a beautiful pattern comprised of a base motif of X’s and O’s, which in netspeak is xoxoxox, or hugs&kisses. It’s a lovely piece that is very flexible in terms of the yarn that can be used and is simple enough for a beginner to tackle as an exercise in upping her game. It’s a great, highly textured project that will be fun to make, and will be greatly enjoyed by both mom and baby.

Hugs and Kisses Hexagon Quilt Free Crochet Pattern
This Afghan makes use of Hugs and Kisses hexagons and no planning whatsoever. It is one of these projects, where the yarn flows and the fingers place it wherever they see fit. As shown, the afghan was made using Caron Big Cakes, which yielded 11 hexagons per ball. Of course, a larger size would merely require planning out with yarn. Either way, it will work equally well with any yarn or identical hexagon borders.
