A seamless baby romper worked bottom-up, with a stockinette body, a lace panel on the front and garter stitch straps. Four sizes, 0–3 months to 9–12 months.

Sizes: 0–3m, 3–6m, 6–9m, 9–12m.

The front and back are worked separately from the bottom, then joined and worked in the round for the body. The lace panel follows an 8-stitch repeat, given both as a chart and written out round by round. Leg openings are finished in 1×1 rib with buttonholes, and the straps fasten to buttons at the front.

Worked in DK weight yarn on 3.5 mm needles. Intermediate: comfortable working flat and in the round, with basic decreases and yarn overs.

Every step is supported by detailed process photos.

Part of the Ellis collection, with a matching cardigan and a free bonnet.
