Knitting Pattern – Toddler Romper

Introducing the romper in Snuggly 100% Merino 4 ply, design no. 5370, a cozy and adorable option for your little one. As a knitter, I haven’t had the chance to personally knit this pattern yet but I plan to do so soon. From the first glance of the pattern, it looks like a fantastic option for new parents looking for a comfortable, easy-to-care-for, and adorable outfit for their baby.

The romper is made from pure merino wool, which is known for its softness, warmth and moisture-wicking properties. Merino wool is also hypoallergenic, making it a great choice for babies with sensitive skin. The romper features button fastenings below, making it easy to change the baby’s diaper, so they can get right back to cuddles and crawling.

The pattern also includes instructions for cable knitting, which adds a touch of elegance and texture to the romper. The design is suitable for babies aged from birth to two years. The pattern requires 1 pair of 3¼mm (UK10 – US3) Knitting Needles, 1 Pair of 2¾mm (UK12 – US2) Knitting Needles, Stitch Holders and Cable Needle.

Overall, the romper in Snuggly 100% Merino 4 ply, design no. 5370, looks like a fantastic option for new parents looking for a comfortable, easy-to-care-for, and adorable outfit for their baby. The pure merino wool used in the pattern is soft, warm and hypoallergenic making it perfect for babies with sensitive skin. I’m looking forward to knitting this pattern myself and seeing the final product.

It felt like it had been a while since I’d done a roundup of knitting patterns involving sheep, and if search is any indication, that is true. I found a roundup of patterns for knit sheep from a few years ago, but the only one with v I could find is from 2015. So it’s definitely time to revisit this fun genre of knitting patterns.

This all started with a headband. Alyssa Kaat’s Icelandic Sheep Headband (free on Ravelry) to be specific. Ravelry showed it to me as a pattern highlight and I couldn’t resist taking a closer look. It’s worked with two colors of worsted weight yarn and alternates sheep with stars around your head.

Another great sheepy headband is this one from Loch Fyne Crafts on Etsy. These sweet little sheep are worked in bulky yarn and you can make the background look like field and sky or work it in a solid color.

Or make a headband (or a hat, cowl, or all three) covered with a flock of sheep with this set of patterns from New Age Knitting CA. These pieces also use the field/sky coloring, but you can use whatever colors of worsted weight yarn you like.

Speaking of hats, there’s also the sheep hat from Lynann Knits Designs. The sample was worked in Icelandic wool to make the sheep and the hat extra fuzzy and warm, but any worsted weight yarn will work.

There’s also the Wandering Sheep hat from Kat Hudon (on Ravelry), which features a fun collection of speckled sheep that can be worked in different yarn weights to make different sizes of hats for kids and adults.

And lest you think sheep need to be knit in traditional stranded colorwork, check out the Rebel Sheep Mob blanket by Deborah Moore. This one is worked in mosaic knitting using fingering weight yarn. In mosaic knitting you’re only working with one color per row so it’s pretty easy. You can find this pattern on Ravelry.

I can’t possibly share sheep knitting patterns without mentioning the amazing Black Sheep Shadow Shawl by Mark Jamieson. Shadow knitting is a technique I want to do more of, but it involves working two rows alternating in two different colors and the pattern emerges when you look at the design from an angle. It’s so cool and the sheep on this one are amazing! It’s not a beginner project but well worth the work. You can find it on Ravelry or at the designer’s website.
