In the pattern is described how to knit a swaeter, little booties and shorts for a 4-7 months old. It has buttons on both shoulders and the booties are closed with a crocheted chain. The shorts are knitted in 1-1 ribbing and the sweater and booties in stockinette stitch. It’s a nice, vintage looking pattern, but is still very nice and practican for nowadays babies. And that 1974 magazine - it’s so cute! Babies still looked like babies in all those knitted and crocheted clothes. No jeans on a newborn in those days…
