I used 100 percent cotton yarn and size 6 needles. I may go down to size 5 needles to make it a tighter fabric. If I do this then I'll add another ten stitches.
Cast on 40 stitches. Knit every row for about eight inches. Bind off 30 stitches. You should have 10 remaining stitches on your needle. Continue knitting every row for around nine to 10 inches (this is the neck piece). Knit four stitches then add a yarn over button hole. Knit several more rows. Bind off. Weave in ends.
Add a cute little button and call it done.
I've been thinking about the button. Once the cotton shrinks then it may be too tight to actually use the button. What I think I'll do on the next one is make the neck piece longer and attach it. Then I could add whatever little embellishments I wanted to.
I took the photo today. You may be able to tell that it's overcast here today. Snow is expected (10% chance today with a 30% chance tomorrow). Could it be asking for too much for a snow day?!?
Peace,
Kay

How adorable . . .I can see wearing it under the neck of a coat on a cold winter's day, too.

Your blogging sister, Connie :)
Very cute, adorable bib...might need one of those when I'm 90, lol You have a chance of snow and we have 70 degree weather...sheesh. I really, really want some snow! waving hi from the hills of North Carolina :)
Oh how cute!! I love how you say this was so easy... if I try to knit, I drop stitches and it all unravels.
Fabulous Kay - just add a baby and we're off - love it! Hugs, Di xx
Di again - I have another very similar stamp called 'Lavender Scene', also half price or less, which doesn't have the grapes (re. the post today you commented on) - they do a little range of these scenes I now know.
No snow here as yet - haaaa, we're all stocked up and have the snow pushers handy........seems that's what's keeping it away :))
Hugs, Di xx
