Create a timeless and cozy outfit for the little one in your life with this beautifully textured baby set.

Designed for both style and ease of knitting, this pattern features a classic grid-stitch texture that is squishy, warm, and perfect for baby photography or coming-home outfits.

The “No-Seam” Romper Construction
The highlight of this design is its ingenious construction method. Say goodbye to complicated side seams and gussets!

• One-Piece Design: The romper is knitted flat in a single continuous piece. You will begin at the top of the front bib, work your way down through the legs, and continue up to form the back.
• Easy Assembly: Once the knitting is off the needles, simply fold the piece up and secure the shape using the buttons on the hips.

• Minimal Finishing: With no side seams to sew, your finishing work is limited mostly to weaving in ends and sewing on the buttons.

Design Features
• Rich Texture: The body features an intricate-looking (but easy-to-memorize) waffle/grid stitch that provides excellent stretch and warmth.

• Practical Fasteners: The romper opens fully at the sides and straps via wooden buttons, making dressing a wiggling baby effortless.

• Complete Set: This pattern includes instructions for the matching textured beanie and cuffed booties to complete the look.

• Unisex Appeal: The neutral design makes it perfect for both baby boys and girls.

Pattern Details
• Skill Level: Intermediate (requires knowledge of basic shaping and stitch patterns).

• Recommended Yarn: DK or Light Worsted weight yarn (soft wool or acrylic blend recommended for babies).
• Notions: 6 Buttons (2 for straps, 4 for side closures).
