Whether you're already a fan of the sweet knitted wonders designed by Norwegian moms Hanne and Torunn or you're a newcomer, you're in for a beautiful, Scandinavian-style treat. Here are 40 new patterns for soft and easy garments for children, all focused on the fun, active days of summer! Using fine merino wool yarn and cotton blends makes them not too warm but just right. And not an itch in sight. For newborns to age 10, the projects are a mix of quick-to-knit and more challenging; each includes a convenient difficulty-level rank. Wonderful creations like these will add Scandinavian magic to your summer: be ready for the party in a sweet Olivia Onesie knitted in a cotton blend yarn. Kangaroo Pants knit up fast on large needles and are equally cute on a newborn or a four-year-old. The David Sweater-Jacket is perfect for summer, and like all the heirloom-quality designs it can be passed down from brother to sister. Billie Shorts are delightful to wear and also to make—garter-stitch shorts, knitted sideways. The Dinosaur Cap or the Blueberry Girl’s Summer Kerchief are perfect to fend off summer breezes. And Lace Tights let you knit up a simple lace pattern plus try a new cast-on method for fine lacy edgings. Hanne Andreassen Hjelmås and Torunn Steinsland are the women behind the world-popular web shop and Instagram site KlompeLompe. They design garments and develop patterns together, and Hanne takes the photos. Their most recent bestselling book is All-Year-Round Knitting for Little Sweethearts (Schiffer).

Here are more than 40 totally new KlompeLompe garments for babies and children, all focused on the fun, active days of summer! Quick-to-knit accessories such as caps and socks, as well as simple but fine cardigans and pullovers. Many of the pieces can be combined for outfits. Make rompers for little sister and a matching dress for big sister. Some of the patterns also have matching doll versions! Now little brother and his teddy bear can both wear comfy, matching shirts that are perfect for summer play.
