Perla suit - english pattern

A sweet and practical romper knitted top-down. The lace pattern on the body and legs gives a light and airy look, while the sleeves and edges are finished with a simple i-cord trim. The diagonal button closure makes dressing easy, and the ruffle edge adds a delicate, classic touch. A timeless and comfortable garment for the little ones.
