Blueberry Romper is a sleeveless bodysuit in stockinette stitch featuring a charted lace panel with
blueberries running up the front while garter edges finish the neckline, arm and leg openings. The little
opening at back neck is closed with one button and a crochet loop, and crotch is closed with 4 buttons.
Blueberry Romper is worked from the bottom up, both flat and in the round with 1 strand of either Merino,
Cotton Merino or Pure Silk.
You start working the two crotch pieces back and forth, before work is joined on one needle and continued
in the round up to the underarms. Here, work is divided into front and back, and each piece is shaped and
finished separately back and forth. Stitches are picked up for the edges around the neck, arm and leg
openings and finished in garter stitch.
The Blueberry stitch pattern is charted only.
