The Colorful Collection Crochet Pattern For Babies in Paintbox Yarns Baby is an 11-page A4 PDF that brings together a complete layette: a blanket, a little jacket, a hat, and bootees, all worked in Paintbox Yarns Baby DK. The pattern uses a 4mm (UK 8 – US G/6) crochet hook for the blanket and lists a tension of 19 stitches and 22 rows over 10 cm of dc (sc) for both the blanket and the jacket.
What the four-piece layette includes
Each garment and accessory is presented with its own instructions, so you can crochet the pieces individually or as a matching set. The jacket requires 4 x 20mm buttons to finish. The pattern is written in UK terms, with US equivalents given in parentheses.
Printing and using the PDF
Print the PDF on A4 paper at actual size, not fit-to-page, to keep the tension and measurements accurate. Work a gauge swatch first to match the stated tension, and check your hook size if your gauge differs.
