This pattern is available from lovecrafts.com for £2.50.

The pattern is for dungarees and top in dk yarn. The dungarees are a relaxed fit and knit from the hem up on either straight or dpns. The pattern has lots of variations: the pockets can be left out, the legs are adjustable and the hem can be turned up to create a cuff. I’ve added simple embroidery for a cute effect.

The top is short to fit under the dungarees and made in one piece from the neck down on straight needles, with a back opening for easy fit. It can be plain with a little contrast or in 2 row stripes.

Actual measurements are
Dungarees: Waist 12.5”/32cm, length from top of bib to hem 8”/20cm, longer legs 10”/25cm
Top: chest 12”/30cm, length from shoulder to hem 5”/13cm

Dungarees: 60g dk yarn, small amounts of contrast for embroidery, 2 small buttons,
Top: 25g dk yarn, 12g each colour for striped top, small amount of contrast for plain top, 4 small buttons
3.25mm and 4mm needles for both items
