"Apple" Romper set
This exquisite three-piece set—featuring a romper, bonnet, and booties—is designed with both elegance and ease of construction in mind. Tailored for infants aged 0 to 3 months, the pattern offers a high-end “boutique” look through clever architectural knitting techniques.
The standout feature of this design is the integrated 3D leaf lace. Unlike traditional patterns that require finishing work, these organic details are built directly into the structure of the garments.
Seamless Design Features
Integrated Buttonbands: The beautiful leaf-shaped placket on the romper is knitted along as you go. This means there is absolutely no need to pick up stitches along the front edges later. The decorative border grows naturally with the body of the romper.
One-Piece Bonnet Brim: The bonnet features a matching leaf-shaped brim that is also knitted as you go. This ensures a perfect tension match and a flawless transition from the face-framing lace to the main hood.
Top-Down Construction: Starting at the neckline, the raglan increases allow you to complete the bodice and sleeves with minimal seaming.
