NEW Quick & Easy Baby Romper Pattern
Hello there! When I started knitting, I was always looking for easy projects that only involved garter stitch and were quick to finish. If my project didn’t meet any of those two requirements, it would most probably end up hanging unfinished from a needle, inside a bag, in my closet… Maybe that’s the reason I accumulated so many needles during my early “knitting years” 🙂 Remembering all this, I decided to start a series of “all knitting (no purl!)” patterns, of which my QUICK & EASY BABY ROMPER will be the first. With easy-to-follow instructions and tips, is a wonderful pattern for beginners. It uses Worsted yarn and US 7…

Easy Knit Baby Bloomers FREE PATTERN – OhLaLana!
EASY BABY BLOOMERS KNITTING PATTERN Hello! After a very busy week, I finished testing all sizes for these easy baby bloomers /diaper covers / soakers. Yay!! They’re knitted flat in 1 piece, and the sides are seamed at the end. You can make the eyelets and pass a ribbon (as I did) OR skip that and just go for a simple waist rib. It’s a very easy and fast knitting project. If you’re a beginner you may find the picking up of stitches for the leg openings a bit challenging, BUT… They also look great without ribbed leg openings! Therefore, it’s up to you 😀 I hope you like them!! If you have any doubt…
