Olive's Onesie

Olive’s Onesie is a simple all-in-one babysuit with feet. The suit is worked from the top down using 1 strand of Merino or Cotton Merino. An opening on the inside of the legs and the small opening on front of the raglan yoke that are both closed with buttons simplify diaper changing and dressing. The back is shaped with German short rows.
