Here’s the knitting pattern for the baby jacket with hat.

This hat with a shawl collar is ideal for babies and toddlers because it can be opened at the front and keeps the head and neck nice and warm. Babies really don’t like having something pulled over their heads. The pattern describes each step in detail and includes lots of photos. This means that even beginners (with basic skills) can knit the hat successfully.

Basic knitting skills (as well as knitting stitches together) are sufficient. We knit with a set of double-pointed needles.


Required materials for 1 pair of socks up to newborn size: approx. 10 g 4-ply sock yarn, or leftover yarn. You will also need a set of double-pointed needles size 2.5, measuring tape, scissors, a yarn needle for weaving in ends, and possibly a key ring

Knitting pattern for baby traditional vest size 86/92 with intarsia cable





(To purchase/download, please click the image)

For boys or girls, and not just during Oktoberfest season..

For this special sleeveless baby vest without buttons, we need:

150 g gray merino wool + 50 g red merino wool, here Schachenmayr Merino Extrafine 120, 50 g – 120 m yardage, used here: knitting needles 4.0 mm, cable needle, crochet hook 3.5 mm for the bow, stitch holder or similar for holding stitches, tapestry needle for weaving in ends, stitch marker is helpful.

The PDF pattern is illustrated.

The red cable on the back is made using the intarsia technique (illustrated explanation is included) and requires a little time and skill - so I would not recommend it for beginner knitters.

The cable also looks lovely in solid gray; the whole piece is then knitted up quite quickly. For knitting beginners, I therefore recommend knitting this vest completely without the cable and/or in one color .
