Description
🧶 Little Quokka Baby Outfit — Hooded Romper, Joey & Play Mat Knitting Pattern (PDF, 28 pages).
The happiest face in the Australian bush, knitted into a complete baby set. Our little quokka romper has a real pocket knitted right into its tummy — and riding in that pocket is her mini joey, smiling just as wide. Underneath them both, an oval play mat with her smiling face in the middle. An original design from our Aussie family shop, written for slow, happy knitting — Australia-inspired, baby-approved.
✨ WHAT’S INSIDE ✨
🦘 Hooded Quokka Romper — top-down raglan worked in the round, in warm sandy brown with a cream tummy panel; a short button placket at the neck with two wooden-look buttons; a real pocket KNITTED INTO the body front (never sewn on); a picked-up hood whose cream muzzle carries the quokka’s wide happy smile and small dark nose, charted in full; two small round ears with cream inners; cuffed legs with NO enclosed feet, so little toes stay free — and no tail, because babies lie on their backs
🐾 Mini Quokka Joey Toy — a sitting joey sized to ride in the pocket (about 14 cm sitting), with a cream belly worked in intarsia, small round ears and an embroidered smile — no safety eyes, no small parts
🌿 Oval Play Mat — a soft oval (about 67 × 85 cm) in sandy brown with a cream border ring and ONE small smiling quokka face worked in intarsia in the centre, from our own chart
📏 SIZES 📏
Romper in three sizes: 0–3, 3–6 and 6–12 months (to fit chest 40.5 / 43 / 46 cm). The joey and the mat are one generous size in every set. A full measurement and sizing table is in the front matter.

📖 THE PATTERN 📖
Very detailed, the way we like them: every row and round written out in full — 505 written rows — with the stitch count for ALL three sizes on every line. Full charts for the hood muzzle/smile, the joey’s belly and the mat face, with every chart row also written out in words. Step-by-step construction for the hood, ears, pocket and toy assembly, plus finishing, blocking, abbreviations and gauge (22 sts × 30 rows = 10 cm on 4 mm needles). Print it, tick the rows off, and knit with confidence.
