So you can keep your baby warm, while still showing off that really cool nappy!!

Of course! Hence why the gremlins have so many pairs!

I actually made up a pattern (well copied actual baby legs) They are OSFA but they might be a wee bit baggy while they still have chicken legs.
This is using 8ply wool with 3.5mm needles
I cast on 42 stitches and then k2 p2 for the first row and then p2, k2 for the next row and continue that for 8 rows.
I then do stocking stitch (knit a row and then purl a row) for 40 rows, then k2tog at the start and end of row 41 and then continue stocking stitch until there are 80 stocking rows.
I then k2 p2 for the next 8 rows. Then cast off and sew up the seams. You could do them on circs since its such an easy pattern.
