This is a gorgeous little set for your beautiful preemie, consisting of a ‘v’ neck cardi -knitted in one piece to armholes to minimise uncomfortable seams - with a tiny seahorse swiss darned on to one front, closing with 3 small buttons; a hat with a fish border over a ribbed fabric; a pair of tiny booties where the cuffs can be folded over or left tall; and finally, a friendly little octopus whose tentacles replicate the umbilical cord in the womb, providing comfort for the new baby. It also features buttoned cuffs to make dressing your delicate preemie a little easier.

The pattern uses a high quality, machine washable acrylic yarn which is very soft on the skin.

This set could be knitted for donating to your local NICU to help other tiny babies who arrived a little earlier than expected!

I’m happy for my designs to be knitted up for charity or for selling, but request that you credit me as the designer on any tags/packaging, thank you.
