This baby ballerina wrap knitting kit is the perfect gift to make for a newborn or toddler.
The pattern can be made with short or long sleeves and has a clever design for minimal finishing. It is worked bottom up from the back hem to shoulders, then right and left fronts are worked separately to the front hem - so its just one piece of knitting!

Knit One Kits top tip: try blocking your work before sewing up. A guide to this is included in the pattern.
