Knit from the bottom up, in a combination of back-and-forth and in-the-round knitting, our sleeveless Daisy jumpsuit has a wide ankle-to-ankle diaper opening, and back short-row shaping that allows room for diapers. The back has an opening that fastens at the neck with a crocheted button loop. Lace edgings trim the cuffs. The broad, daisy petal lace collar is knitted separately back and forth, and then attached around the neckline.
Daisy lace stitch patterns are written out.
