My Simple Baby Onesie was designed with babies and mommies in mind! Machine-washable DK weight yarn is soft and cozy while being lightweight enough for all seasons to keep baby comfy. The pattern features adjustable shoulder straps for longer wear as baby grows along with crotch buttons for easy diaper-changes.

Notes

This onesie is worked seamlessly from the bottom up.

The back and front crotch pieces are worked separately before being joined for working the body in turned rounds, then the pattern divides to work the back and front chest and straps.

This onesie has 2 sets of adjustable buttons to attach the straps at the back of the onesie and allow for longer wear as baby grows. It also buttons at the crotch for easy diaper changing.
