Welcome tiny new arrivals with handcrafted love using this King Cole 6584 knitting pattern. Designed for the cloud-like softness of King Cole Cherished DK, this heartwarming collection has everything you need to create a complete, gentle layette. Inside, you will find instructions for a classic round neck cardigan, a graceful matinee coat with delicate lace detailing, cosy pull-on leggings, sweet little hats, and a beautifully draping baby shawl. Every item works up with a soothing, anti-pilling touch that stays velvety against tender skin, making this set a pure joy to knit for hospital gift bags, blessing days, or treasured newborn keepsakes.
