Debbie Bliss Lilac Rose Set (Free)

Sweet as pie and perfect for welcoming new little ones to the world, the Debbie Bliss Lilac Rose Set is a dynamite choice for baby shower gifts. This crossover cardigan, shoes, and bear set is adorned with repeating rose motifs worked in intarsia to create pops of color throughout and tie the set together. Cardigan is knit flat in pieces form the bottom up and seamed with a modified drop shoulder, v-neck, and knitted ties. Shoes are knit flat and seamed with short row shaping creating a Mary Jane style and have an added strap and button closure to help them stay on. Bear is also knit flat and seamed. All three items are knit in Baby Cashmerino, a longtime favorite for baby and children's items for its smooth, soft blend of Merino wool, cashmere, and acrylic that's machine-washable for easy care. Wrap a special new baby in cozy handmade gifts with the Lilac Rose Set from Debbie Bliss! Intarsia pattern is charted only.
