Discover a sweet collection of vintage baby patterns with this charming 1976 Bernat Babies pattern book (Handicrafter No. 222).

This out-of-print classic from Bernat Yarns features 19 lovely styles for babies and young children — from newborn through size 14. Most designs are complete sets, including several with matching blankets or carriage covers. You’ll find delicate sacques, bonnets, and blankets, plus cozy sweaters, leggings, dresses, and a beautiful lacy Christening Dress.

Highlights include:

• Cable and textured knitting patterns for pullovers, turtlenecks, and hats
• Striped crochet sets with matching blankets and bonnets
• Lacy Christening Dress worked on an afghan hook
• Practical baby essentials: sacques, leggings, mittens, and coverlets
• Sweet dresses and coats sized up to 4 years

All patterns are worked in soft, machine-washable Bernat Berella yarns (primarily 3-ply fingering weight with some Sportspun and 4-ply). The book offers a wonderful mix of classic stitches, raglan shaping, cables, and easy textured patterns — perfect for creating heirloom-quality gifts or everyday treasures for the little ones in your life.
