This is a pdf knitting pattern written in English with UK knitting terms.

These baby bib shorts are both practical and adorable, are worked mainly in St st, from bottom up, with 4 stitch G st border at each side. The back has a deep 2x2 rib waistband (to cover nappy) that extends round to the front to fasten with 2 buttons on each side.

Worked in chunky weight cotton, the bib shorts fasten with buttons at shoulder straps and side waistband. Can be worn over a long sleeve T-shirt and tights on cold days and just a vest on warmer days. A cute bear face is embroidered into the front panel, ears are knitted separately and attached to complete the bear. We use brown, a classic colour but can be worked in any colour of your choice, with or without the bear design.

A full schematic of the garment is included with all measurements listed in cms. Includes templates for motif. Made in London.
