KNITTING PATTERN -- Baby Sweet Pea Coming Home Outfit - P223
This is a fairly simple and delicate coming home outfit. I have created this design to work with many of my designs, making this set the perfect addition for baby’s first wardrobe... a great way to mix and match outfits.
Jacket - worked top down - no seaming.
Pants - worked in round top down - a few short rows added to the pants for a better fit.
A sweet set for baby’s first wardrobe!
