This cute pant set is the perfect photo prop. The newborn knit pant is a very trendy photo prop right now.

I designed these pants for optimal comfort for baby: a small gusset and short row shaping on the bum. The short row shaping makes sure that when baby is posed froggy style baby’s tushie is totally covered.

The hat is a simple and traditional bonnet that matches beautifully with the pants with the special added touch of hand made wood beads that I purchased from etsy at: https://www.etsy.com/shop/MyLittleWoodShop2

This pattern is worked with worsted weight (4) and a size 8 (5mm) double pointed needles, size 6 (4mm) needles. Instructions for the pants are for working in the round and the bonnet is worked flat.

Stitches: knit, purl, yarn over, make 1, pick up stitch, cast on, bind off, kitchener stitch, slip stitch, psso, knit 2 tog, three needle bind off
