Hansel & Gretel
$9.00
This set started with bloomer-inspired overalls and ended with a dress! Whether you’re knitting for a boy, girl, or one of each, the cute simplicity of these designs will complement. Both pieces are worked bib first and top-down. Stitches are cast on for the waist and pieces are then worked in the round. Bloomeralls are finished one leg at a time, in the round, and dress is bound off at the bottom of the skirt. Each strap is knit horizontally and seamed. Work in two colors or three or more! Dress shown in Size 2; bloomeralls shown in Size 12 months.
