Nostalgic, sweet and easy to knit, the Criss Cross set is knitted in super soft, machine washable Paintbox Yarns Baby DK, using just knit and purl stitches in an easy to memorise repeat! Knit in a pastel for a really vintage feel, or go bold and work up in a zesty bright! The set includes a cosy blanket, cute cardigan and little bootees to match.
