Plaited Petal Set

Children's Cardigans, Dolls Clothes, HatsElizabeth Primrose Patterns

A 3-piece layette for doll or baby

The Plaited Petal Set brings together a cardigan, hat and bootees, each worked in a beautifully staggered eyelet pattern that creates a soft, petal‑like texture across the fabric.

Knitted in DK wool, this set is sized to fit a 19–22” (48–56 cm) doll or a 0–3 month old baby, making it perfect for gifting, keepsakes, or dressing a favourite doll.

A cardigan with gentle structure

The cardigan is framed with moss stitch borders, giving a timeless edge to the eyelet fabric. The back, fronts and sleeves are worked separately up to the yoke, where all pieces are joined together on one needle, creating a smooth top section that shapes beautifully around the shoulders.

A cosy hat with plaited ties

The matching hat begins with a snug moss stitch brim, then moves into the same staggered eyelet pattern for a coordinated look. Shaped earflaps add warmth and the finishing touch is a pair of plaited ties.

Bootees with satin ribbons

The bootees echo the cardigan and hat with the same eyelet texture, creating a beautifully cohesive set. They fasten with satin ribbon ties, adding an elegant detail that completes the trio.

  • Size: 19–22”/48-56 cms dolls or 0–3 month babies
