Hanoi is a romper inspired by what we call a peasant blouse: gathers at the neckline, raglan armholes, and a loose, comfortable fit. A retro look guaranteed for little ones! Hanoi is also available as a top and a dress: a pattern with numerous options to suit all seasons.

Madrid

✂️ Difficulty level: intermediate
👖 Size range: from 6 months to 4 years
🎬 Video tutorial available


Madrid has achieved the feat of offering you a jumpsuit, a romper, and a dress, all in the same pattern! We particularly like the puffy side of the model with the gathers between the top and bottom yoke, which gives the pattern a very cute look and is particularly suited to babies' mobility.
