A cute little pattern for a set comprising of a chunky dribble bib, beanie hat, and small comforter. The bib fastens with one button on one shoulder, has a half back, and is tabbard style. There is a matching pull on beanie hat, and small 8 inch (20cm) hand size comforter for clutching. This set can be knitted in either King Cole’s Yummy yarn or James C Brett’s Flutterby yarn. This set is suitable for either a boy or a girl and comes in 3 sizes, newborn, 0-3 months or 3-6 months.

I’ve used King Cole Yummy to make this outfit. I also found that with this type of yarn, it’s best to have a looser cast on edge by casting on with the two needle method. The yummy yarn knits to a tension of 10sts and 20 rows to 10cm square over stocking stitch on 6mm needles.

This pattern has been designed by myself so it is entirely in UK terminology. It does not follow the usual ‘shop bought’ format. There are 4 printed pages with clear and easy to follow row by row instructions. All my patterns are tested by independent knitters before they are released, so every effort is made so that they come to you error free.

Although my patterns are strictly protected by copyright, which I ask you to respect, I am more than happy for any items made from my patterns to be sold.
