Naturally, it is preferable to choose only a natural thread - children should be given only the best, because they are our future. Special yarn for children differs in its composition from the usual one, because it does not include harmful components of dyes for yarn. Most often, high-quality acrylic, cotton, silk are chosen for children's clothes.
Step 3
Another important point is the color of the threads. Knitting for children is a kind of creative process, and small children will evaluate the product you knit, however, like any other from the store, primarily visually. Therefore, choose more juicy and bright colors - this will appeal to the newborn.

For bonnets and hats, this is the circumference of the head. The knitting process for a beloved baby is very addictive that it is impossible to stop. For children, you can create the most daring and original models, experiment with colors, then it will not only be pleasant to watch your child, but others will also admire.
