Hansel & Gretel
Blog post on this design.
This set started with bloomer-inspired overalls and ended with a dress! Whether you’re knitting for a boy, girl, or one of each, the cute simplicity of these designs will complement. Both pieces are worked bib first and top-down. Stitches are cast on for the waist and pieces are then worked in the round. Bloomeralls are finished one leg at a time, in the round, and dress is bound off at the bottom of the skirt. Each strap is knit horizontally and seamed. Work in two colors or three or more!
