It's incredibly easy and quick to knit, making it a perfect practical gift for new parents welcoming a baby into the world. Every parent will undoubtedly treasure this handmade gift as it adds a special touch to their little one's wardrobe.

In this pattern, we showcase the set in a size suitable for 3-month-old infants, but we also provide sizes for 0, 3, 6, and 9 months.

It's a thoughtful and timeless present that combines functionality with the love and care of handcrafted items.

For this knitting project, you will need 1 (1-1-1) ball of Creative Basics Esther 8-ply yarn, with each 100g ball offering a generous 220 meters. Keep in mind that yarn quantities can vary between different knitters and types of yarn, so it’s always a good idea to have a little extra on hand.

You'll need a pair of 4.00mm knitting needles (equivalent to UK size 8 and US size 6) to bring this adorable set to life, along with a wool needle for sewing up those finishing touches. Additionally, this design calls for 192 (204-216-228) cm [76 (80-84-88) inches] of narrow ribbon to add a lovely finishing flair to your booties and mittens.

For achieving the best results, make sure to maintain the correct tension of 21 stitches and 40 rows per 10 cm [4 inches] over garter stitch, using the 4.00mm needles. This pattern is rated as easy, making it ideal for beginner knitters as well as seasoned crafters looking for a quick and rewarding project.
