About the Design
What an adorable little set to crochet for the little one in your life or for a baby shower gift!

These soft, heavy worsted weight yarns make the set quick to work up, yet still be light enough for baby - the 3 month size uses under 6 ozs. of yarn. Use 2 colors to highlight the stitch patterning or use one color for a more textural look.

From left to right, the samples are worked in:
Cascade Yarns Eco wool yarn, for an earthy, natural set;

Beaverslide worsted wt. wool blend, in 2 colors, for a feminine set, and lastly,

Webs Naturals 50% bluefaced leicster / 50% alpaca blend, for an even softer, more luxurious set. Or you can use your favorite soft, heavy worsted weight yarn.
