A perfect baby gift and accessory for your favorite little pumpkin(s), here is a bib with a happy face worked in Mosaic Stitch. The edges of the bib are worked in a slip stitch selvedge (or can be worked in a garter stitch selvedge as well). Optional instructions allow additional height to be added to chest area. The bib is completed with I-cord ties.

The mosaic pattern involves garter and slipped stitches using one strand of yarn for two rows at a time (switching color strands every two rows).

For a smaller bib, substitute a different yarn such as Sport or DK Weight with corresponding size needles for desired gauge.

Make this project with either the chart or the full-written pattern, both written and charted instructions are provided.

Finished Measurements:
Width: 9.75” (25cm)
Chest Height: 8.25” (21 cm)

Yarn Amounts (bib with MC ties and no optional repeats):
45 yds Worsted weight contrasting color yarn
60 yds Worsted weight main color yarn
