Big Girls’ Romper in Knit

May 2, 2011 By crafterhours 10 Comments

I just wanted to write a quick post to show you that my big girl romper tutorial can be used with knit fabric too.
Actually, this is the first version I made, since knits are more forgiving than wovens and are an easy way to test the fit first.  Also, I had this print sitting around and I don’t really like it, so it was a good muslin.
For the hem on the shorts, I added a tshirt-esque binding in the same way described in the Ringer Shirt tutorial.  I love the bubble effect at the bottom!
In case you missed it, here is the original romper tutorial.  I’d love to see your creations in our flickr group!

    I love the print too! I wasn’t sure about rompers because of the whole bathroom thing. How is your daughter making out with that, mine likes to wait until the very.last.minute.
