Stinkin’ cute and comfy to boot. This two-piece newborn to toddler set is gender neutral, and includes a tee shirt with a button-off panel and a diaper cover. Narrow stripes on the button-off panel and short sleeves of the adorable tee play off the color of the diaper cover. Valley Superwash Sport means it’s wash and wear, as well as soft against baby’s delicate skin. The tee’s body is knit in one piece from the bottom up to the underarms and then divided to work the back and the fronts. The sleeve stitches are picked up along the armhole and worked flat down to the ribbing. The diaper cover is worked in one piece from the waistband down.
