This charming four-piece knitting set features a delicate feather and fan lace design, creating a timeless and elegant look for a new arrival. The set includes a short-sleeved cardigan, a matching bonnet, ruffled nappy covers (bloomers), and sweet T-bar booties.

The pattern is designed for comfort and ease of construction, worked top-down to minimize seaming. It is conveniently knitted using straight needles, making it an accessible project for knitters who prefer traditional needles over circulars.

Pattern Features
Design: Intricate eyelet lace detailing on the cardigan yoke, hem, and bonnet.

Construction: Worked from the neck down (top-down) for the cardigan.

Closure: Three delicate buttons on the yoke and a satin ribbon tie for the bloomers.

Skill Level: Intermediate (requires knowledge of basic lace stitches like yarn overs and decreases).
