Daisy Jumpsuit

Knit from the bottom up, in a combination of back-and-forth and in-the-round knitting, the sleeveless Daisy jumpsuit has a wide ankle-to-ankle diaper opening, and back short-row shaping that allows room for diapers. The back has an opening that fastens at the neck with a crocheted button loop. Lace edgings trim the cuffs.
