What's an Ordinary?
For those of you who are not bicycle enthusiasts, an ordinary is an old-fashioned high wheel bicycle.
I've been wanting to knit one of these for a long time now and finally got around to charting and writing out the pattern.

The bib is unique in that it doesn't tie (choke the poor baby), velcro (sticks to everything in the washer), or button (swallowed).
The i-cord knot slips through a knitted-in button hole.
If you make the bib from dishcloth yarn (Peaches & Cream) it will shrink and become thicker and more absorbent when it is washed. Also my granddaughter loved chewing on the rough fabric. I used 2 strands of Mississippi 3 by Katia. Any type of worsted cotton will do.
And if you don't need a bib — make a dishcloth or washcloth!
The pattern is available for sale on my website.
