Knitting pattern for cute baby pants size 50-56             Knitted on two needles                                                                         
These cute pants will grow with the baby for a while. You can fold over the cuffs and  therefore use the pants longer. With my explanation, they knit up quickly, and of course it’s also fun to knit for a baby. 
        Knitting pattern for cute baby pants size 50-56

You need 100 g sock yarn and a pair of size 3 knitting needles.

The pants can be machine-washed easily, so they’re a hassle-free item for an expectant mommy or for your first visit to the baby. Of course, also for your grandchild.

One such grow-with-me dress is the NICONIE-MINI



This dress is perfect for the transition from spring to summer or from summer to fall, as it has a loose, airy fit but doesn’t feature any lace patterns. The cable patterns in the round yoke are also a stylish eye-catcher.

When you crochet this dress, you’ll be giving your little one a chic accessory that will still keep them warm around the upper body.

The written pattern is 7 pages long and includes a detailed photo for each step.

What stitches do you need to know?

• Chain stitches
• single crochet

Baby Knitted Jacket JAKOB plus Cowl

The cowl is knitted separately and buttoned at the back.

The set is made in size 62/68 (but can possibly still be worn at size 74 - it "grows with baby") from soft, temperature-regulating merino yarn with an approx. length of 120 to 130 m (e.g. from Schachenmayr)  for needle size 3 to 4.

General knitting skills are sufficient.

Here I’d like to show you a few patterns that you and your baby can enjoy for a long time:

The baby blanket “Marie” is a lovely blanket that grows with your child. At first, you simply use it folded double, giving babies lots of warmth. Later, it is used in a single layer and still fits toddlers, too. By the way: The blanket is also wonderful for the car, for example when you drive the children to kindergarten in the morning or come home later in the evening.

This warm hat with cables keeps the head nice and warm. The pattern includes sizes XS (children from 1 year) to L (adults). That way, you can crochet the hat again and again to suit the age.
