This adorable matching sweater and pants combination is the perfect project for a beginner, though knitters of all skill levels will love making it. The set is designed to keep babies and toddlers warm and stylish.

The sweet raglan sweater is knitted top-down and in one piece. It features charming details like cute ears, embroidered eyes, and a puffy nose. Dressing is easy thanks to the practical three-button opening at the back.

Bear or reindeer: choose your favourite! Make the classic bear with rounded ears, or a festive reindeer with pointed ears, antlers and a knitted nose.

The matching pants are also knitted top-down and in one piece and feature an adorable knee “paw” detail. You even have the option to add convertible footies at the end!

Knitters can easily follow along with the complete step-by-step video tutorial, which explains all the necessary techniques. While it’s recommended that you are confident with knitting, purling, basic increases, and the magic loop technique —all are also demonstrated in the video!
