Manually emailed instructions for a girl’s top-down baby bolero knitting pattern. As it is worked from the top down, minimal sewing is needed.
This pattern is ideal for using up your oddments of yarn. The plain pink version shown has been knitted with a King Cole baby DK yarn, and used a total of 37g of yarn for the 0-3 month size. If you use a second colour then you will need even less of each colour. The pattern includes instructions for the use of two colours. I have allowed a total of 25g of each colour for the dk sizes to cover the amount if you use a yarn with less meterage than the yarn I have used.
A larger size of this pattern for 1-7 year olds is available separately which you can find here Child size bolero
