After much trial, error, procrastination and actual busy-ness, I’ve finally gotten nearly done with the romper I crocheted for Sophia! All that remains is to sew the zipper in.

Too bad she’s already outgrown this πŸ˜…

I love it!!! did you self draft the pattern? I'd be interested

Yeah, I planned this generally but winged it specifically πŸ˜… I can try to dig up my β€œpattern”

haha don't worry about it. I would probably do the same anyway.

This diagram shows my overall plan! I went with 3-6 month and kind of laid my work on top of one of her rompers to figure out when to change from legs to main body, etc., basically just to see how big to make all the sections.

Leg and arm holes are 42 st around using size 3 cotton yarn; its Hobby Lobby’s Sugarwheel Sprinkles On Top. I had thought it would be ombrΓ© and not stripe, though, but it’s still quite cute!

I did a little pattern every fourth row because if I just count and count with no variation I go loopy πŸ€ͺ

For that, four regular stitches, then two that dip down two rows below the current row.

I was hoping this would make more dramatic V shapes that would make the colors β€œmix” more, but I was still figuring out how the striping worked, and just decided to go with it. It does kind of make a subtle wave effect that I like this way.

nice! thanks for the notes!
