The is a customizable bib, you pick the yarn/gauge and go! Instructions are included for worsted weight, if you don’t like math :-)

I loooove this bib. Hubbie made the mistake of challenging me to just knit new bibs for Asa and the result of that is this simple pattern.

No snaps, scratchy velcro, or buttons that could come loose.

I recently revamped the pattern to make it easier to read.

I don’t recommend cotton for this bib. Cotton get’s cold when it’s wet and it wicks, which means when baby drools on it, the moisture will spread through the bib possibly getting their clothes wet. Also, cotton has no elasticity so the neck will stretch out and not hold the ribbing well. It’s not horrible, it’s just not as good a choice as superwash wool and gasp acrylic.
