They are quick & simple to make - and a great way to use small amounts of yarn.
All three only require around 46g in total!
Knit them in traditional pastels or in modern bright colours.

ReplyDeleteI'm confused about what to do next in the pattern. After row 20 it says to repeat from ** to ** twice more. I don't see that in the pattern. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteHello Mary. You are quite correct - I missed off the second ** from the hat instructions. Sorry for the confusion.
DeleteYou should repeat the 15th - 20th rows twice more. Thank you for letting me know. Happy knitting. M

ReplyDeleteGreat pattern, thank you. I used light and dark blue for my new grandson :-)
ReplyDeleteAny chance of a preemie pattern, and 3-6,6-9,9-12
ReplyDeleteI started the mittens and don't know what happened. I swear mine will fit a six year old!!!! I was using acrylic yarn...would this have anything to do with it?
ReplyDeleteMUCHAS GRACIAS POR COMPARTIR, ES LO QUE ESTABA DESEANDO ENCONTRAR PARA RETOMAR EL TEJER, AHORA PARA EL PRIMER BEBE DE MI HIJO. FELIZ SALUDOS
ReplyDeleteJust love this pattern, so cute just going to start the booties,
ReplyDeleteHi, I am wondering what does it mean to rib 13 rows in the pattern for newborn boots?
ReplyDeleteGreat pattern. My 11 year old niece is busy knitting her new cousin an outfit.
ReplyDeleteThank you.
Can we get a sweater pattern for this too?
ReplyDeleteI made this baby set for a baby shower and am very happy with the end product. I am an experienced knitter and have taught knitting in adult education since I was 16 years old. Now I am 60 years old am enjoying my knitting habit more as my medical practice winds down. I made the set in a teal and purple variegated yarn as the contrast color and a matching purple as the main color. I did a different technique to bottom of booties. Instead of straight seam in foot made it a " T" shape at toes to give more room in toe box. Am now using a raglan sweater pattern to match in same colors and contrast garder stitches to match hat set. Love your pattern and hope to use more in the future. Thanks, Barb
ReplyDeleteWhat stitches would you recommend for casting on for a set for 3-6 month old?
ReplyDeleteMarianna, I love to copy yours Patterns.Thank you very much. I make littles shoes to donate for baby needs it. God bless you.
ReplyDeleteDoes the S1 at the beginning of pattern mean to slip that stitch onto the other needle?
ReplyDeleteJust the pattern I needed for my 13 year old great granddaughter to knit for the new baby in her family but can't find where to click to print it for her.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for all the wonderful patterns you have shared. My aunt (who thought me to knit) is no longer able to knit, but she is expecting her first Great-Grandchild in April and asked if I would knit her some matinee jackets for the expected new arrival. I have come across one after the other of fab patterns and so far have knit about 9 or 10 different patterns in various sizes.
