The samples were made using Kartopu Baby One, Alize Baby Best, Lion Brand Re-Up and Valley Yarn Southwick.

For most, 4mm-4.5mm / US6-7 work best (but make sure to make a gauge swatch for best results!)

You will need: yarn (up to 50 grams), knitting needles, darning needle to weave in the yarn ends and to sew the back seam. A stitch holder or a scrap yarn. Crochet hook if you are making a crochet drawstring or a ribbon if you are using a ribbon drawstring.

The shorties ate knit flat.
