Ellen's play set - Paper

Ellen's Play Set consists of a cardigan with a simple lace pattern and a pair of plain-knit diaper pants with drawstrings for elastic.

The diaper pants in Ellen's Play Set are knitted in the round on circular needles from the top down. A running stitch is knitted to create a soft elastic band for the pants. The cardigan in Ellen's Play Set is knitted back and forth on circular needles (60 or 80 cm) from the top down in a simple and pretty lace pattern. The cardigan can also be knitted in stocking stitch for a less feminine look.
