Friendly Fox Baby Hat, Bib, and Leg Warmers
Three piece pattern knitted in soft Berroco Comfort yarn, Pumpkin and White, consisting of fox hat, over-the-head bib in preemie and term sizes, and coordinating leg warmers for each of five sizes: Medium Preemie (3-5 lbs), Large Preemie/Newborn, 6 months, 1 year, and toddler (2-3 years).
Face is made using a chevron stitch to create a fox’s long snout, with googly eyes and a button nose. Face could also be easily painted on using 3D fabric paint.
Smallest size uses less than 1 skein of pumpkin color and less than a half skein of the white color. Largest size uses 2 skeins of pumpkin color and 1 skein of white color.
*****************************
There has been found one mistake in the hat pattern, a missing direction linking the working the face and decreasing to finish. Here is the missing information:
Change to “Pumpkin” yarn and continue pattern (repeating rows 3 and 4) for (3, 4, 4, 6, 6) times more.
Then Knit all stitches (stockinette) until piece measures (4”, 5”, 5.5”, 6”, 6.5”) from tip of nose.
