Designed specifically for newborn size, this piece is perfect for adorning a cozy baby crib or a travel cot, ensuring comfort and style for your little one.

**Materials needed:**

**YARN:** For this delightful project, you will need a total of 400g of DK (double knit) weight yarn. The pattern uses 200g of each color, specifically 100g of Robin Plush DK yarn in Color Mustard and 100g in Color Grey—requiring 2 balls or skeins of each color. This soft and luxurious yarn is made from 100% polyester, offering a warm and plush texture that's ideal for babies.

**KNITTING NEEDLES:** A pair of 4.5mm knitting needles will be your tool of choice for this lovely pattern.

Although you can opt for any DK weight yarn, polyester yarn is highly recommended for its gentle texture and warmth, making it perfect for delicate newborn skin.
