Mosaic set

Mosaic set: bodysuit and bonnet. The bodysuit is worked from the bottom up, seamlessly. First, work the front and back gussets, then cast on new stitches between them and work the body in the round. Next, bind off the back stitches and work the bib, followed by the straps. Work the leg openings. Sew buttons onto the back gusset and upper back. The bonnet is worked from the face toward the back of the head. First, work the band in 1×1 rib, then the bonnet in the main pattern. The back is grafted with a Kitchener stitch. Work the bottom edging and the ties. SIZES Newborn, 1 month, 1-3 months, 3-6 months, 6-9 months, 9-12 months, 12-18 months.
