TOO CUTE!!!! and superbly original!
8-)
This soooo cute, thanks so much its hard to find baby boy stuff
This is so adorable! I have 2 cousins each having baby boys in December - this will make the perfect gift. Thanks for posting!
What Weight of yarn did you use?
This is soooooo darling, my new grandson will love it. Thanks for sharing.
Can you tell me what weight the yarn is? Also, do you have any modification suggestions for making it for a 1year old?
Thanks so much!
The yarn is just basic cotton yarn. Its Worsted Weigh yarn.
This would be very easy to adapt for a bigger size. For the main bib piece cast on a larger number. Since its in seed stitch it would need to be an odd number. Then knit it for a longer length.
Same with the collar. You can add a couple extra stitches to the collar and then make it longer. I plan on posting a larger pattern soon.
Thank you!
Love, love, LOVE this! Am making several as I know a slew of baby boys that have recently been born or are about to be born. Doesn't take long, either. Thank you for creating and sharing such a cute pattern!
I must say I have a friend who is quite original and she is having a boy and everything I show her to make for said baby she replies with naw to Girly. So I'm going to surprise her with this at her baby shower I can't wait to get started
Cheryl,
Just for clarification, when you say "Knit 10 inches", do you mean knit until the whole collar is 10 inches, or until the end of the decrease is 10 inches?
This is a really cool pattern. I'm knitting something for a friend and I've had some trouble looking. Then again, I only looked for two days. Anywho, thanks for making such a crazy, yet fascinating and easy pattern.

This really is very cute! I am expecting another grandchild this summer, and if it's a boy, this Grandpa will be making him him more than one, for sure! Of course, in our family, even the MEN LOVE COLOR, and with this pattern, there are hundreds of ways to alter it an make it unique to individual preferences! What a unique, fun play on a bib, something that is a MUST for EVERY baby!
This is so cool. Any ideas on how to do this with a bow-tie? The discerning Doctor Who fan babies need these....
It's been a while since anyone has commented, but I just found this. It is adorable, and I know what my great-nephews will be getting for Christmas.
Ahhhh, how cute to make as a charitable donation!
Thank you VERY much!
Hi! I just found this pattern through Ravelry.com. I see that you used regular cotton yarn but I don't see anything noted about how much yarn is required. I want to make this for my first grandchild who will arrive in early May 2014. Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks!
I just finished mine,and it takes very little yarn. Onw ball will make several bibs.
These are sooo cute but I've only used the Sugar'n Cream yarn for dishclothes. Won't it shrink up? I will be making one for a baby shower and probably multiple for my grandson who will arrive in July! I love the bowtie idea that was posted as well.
I don't understand the tie stitches.
CO2 then the first row needs 3; don't get it.Please help
What size meddles did you use?

Tie
CO2
1. k1, m1, k1
Cast on 2 stitches.
1. k1, m1(increase st), k1 = 3 sts
I'm following her directions and making one now, using the yarn and size 6 needles stated. I hope it shrinks because this looks like it's going to be big! 8" wide. She doesn't say how wide it's supposed to be.

The finished product is shown in the picture. If you look at the keyboard you can tell about how big it is. I'm wondering if your knitting isn't as tight? I dont usually gauge stuff like this, because it doesn't really matter.
My finished bibs are around 6" wide.
Mrs. Cheryl, this is the coolest thing I've seen for baby boys; thank you so much for sharing your creativity!!
A friend just had a baby and I'm making a couple for him.
So, I've made the tie, but when I did row 21: K1, CO4, K1, I end up with a big hole in the middle! Is this correct? I've rummaged the internet for ways to do this, but all the instructions I find are for cast on in the beginning or end of a row. Could I trouble you for your method for completing this row?
Barb
Please let me know if this is correct:
Tie - CO2
1. k1, m1, k1 [3 sts]
2. k1, m1, k1, m1, k1 [5 sts]
3. k1, m1, k3, m1, k1 [7 sts]
4. k
5. k2, k2tog, k3 [6 sts]
6-15. knit at least 10 rows here (up to 20 is good)
16. k2, k2tog, k2 [5 sts]
17. k
18. k1, k2tog, k2 [4 sts]
19. k

21. k1, CO4, k1 [6 sts]

I am also having a problem with the CO4 part as well...I keep getting a hole. The picture doesn't show a hole. Does anyone know how to do this part of the tie so I complete this adorable little man bib
