An adorable little blueberry costume for your bubba with a matching beanie. The costume comes in 8 different sizes and the beanie comes in 4 different sizes. They both include st counts and measurements.

For the blueberry, we will make the front piece, two back semi circles then attach together and add trim.
For the beanie, we will make both the main panel and applique then attach them together.

You will also need a tapestry needle, scissors and some snap fasteners depending on how many you wish.

To find the best size for your little one, measure from the top of their shoulder to their crotch. Choose the size closest using the “diameter of circle” measurement. The blueberry will stretch but if you’re undecided, it could be worth sizing up so it fits for longer. You can make your circle first and decide if you need to size up or down depending on how it’s measuring.

If you find you need the arm/leg holes smaller or larger, you can add/subtract rows for the panels that are made off the initial circle. I haven’t included the measurements as they stretch and already fit multiple sizes. I’d suggest making both pieces first and holding it against your little one.
