Baby Envelope Neck Top & Beanie Knit Kit
🩵 Baby Envelope Neck Top & Beanie Knit Kit
Sweet, timeless, and beautifully practical — this gorgeous baby knit kit includes everything you need to create a lightweight top with a clever envelope neckline, plus a matching beanie.
Designed in Crucci Baby Love 3-ply, a beautifully soft 100% merino wool, this set is gentle against delicate skin while offering lovely stitch definition. The envelope neckline makes dressing quick and fuss-free, while tidy rib bands give a polished finish.
