When my children were babies (a long time ago now) a jacket with hood and matching leggings was called a pram set. Hence the name of this design. Those were the days when most new mothers had a shiny new pram with matching bag at the front and either a quilted cover or checked Otterburn rug. silver cross pram When one of my visitors suggested a jacket and trousers for Annabell to wear in her stroller I came up with this pattern. I tend to be bit old fashioned with my knitting (or as my daughter would say, very old fashioned in everything) and this design is no exception. Its knit in rows to the armholes then in one piece for the shaping, with short seams to sew for the sleeves and sides. The trousers are also knit in rows and seamed along the inner edge. I used King Cole Cherish which is a lovely smooth yarn to work with but any dk would do, just check your tension. A budget yarn would be ideal too as it knits up nice and thick. This pattern has been tested and checked but mistakes can easily happen when transferring the typed pattern to this blog. So if you find any errors or have any queries please let me know either by commenting below or contacting me. thanks Actual measurements: Jacket: Chest 14”, Length centre back 7”, Sleeve seam 3” Leggings: waist to toe: 10.5” Materials: 150 g double knitting yarn. 80g jacket and 50g trousers (I used King Cole Cherish, orchid) Needles size 3.25 and 4mm, 4 small buttons Tension: 22sts - 30 rows to 10cm (4in) in stocking stitch using 4mm needles Abbreviations: Ss: stocking stitch (one row knit, one row purl), gs: garter stitch – every row knit, k: knit, p: purl, inc: increase, dc: decrease, beg: beginning, sts: stitches, tog: together, re: repeat.
