Baby Pilot Jacket and Hat from OGE Knitwear Designs is worked from the bottom up in one piece to the underarms. The sleeves are worked separately, so a little seaming is required. This knitted outfit is perfect for your tiny newborn or a baby shower! The hat is worked in the round, and no seaming is required.
