This is for a baby bib pattern in the classic popcorn stitch. Perfect for boy or girls, this bib brings a bright pop of color to any outfit. Best fits baby 6months -24months.

This sweet baby bib is worked flat on 2 needles and can be made in
under an hour (for moderate-advanced knitters). It has no seaming and minimal ends to weave, but does require 1 or 2 buttons for closure. The edges are all worked in seed stitch, while the middle follows a 15 row repeat. The neck band is cast on while working the upper seed stitch border.

Materials:

Pair of needles: size 8
Yarn: worsted-weight (cotton or other washable material preferred)
Button: I used one, but if you want the bib to be adjustable you may sew two buttons an inch apart instead of just the one.
Gauge: 4st per inch
Gauge does not need to be exact for fit, but use yarn and needles that meet listed gauge as closely as possible.

Finished dimensions: appx 7” x 7”
