With the arrival of the second royal baby imminent, the LK office is getting a little broody. So we’ve been daydreaming and indulging our imagination by finding our favourite free baby patterns. From the practical to the crazy cute, baby knits never get old. So be patriotic, pick up your needles and knit a tiny something for the baby in your life!
1. Butterfly Bib
Help protect delicate baby jumpers with Lynne Rowe’s bright crochet bib pattern. Opt for blue and green if you’re expecting a boy or gender neutral colours if you are waiting to find out.

2. Mittens
Perfect for using up odds and ends of bright yarn, these colourful mittens will stop baby from scratching their precious face.
