Fresh-looking, trendy knitted stripes were seen on just about everything in the kids’ spring collections. Instead of buying a striped garment off the peg, why not knit a personalised piece especially for the little one in your life – and turn him or her into a Striped sensation?!

Cute, knitted hats and printed headbands are just two of the Little extras that you can create for your kids this season – both quick-and-easy ways of updating wardrobes and providing accessories that have instant fashion appeal.

Many of the top childrenswear designers have produced scaled-down versions of adult clothes for tiny tots and toddlers this season, so Mom (or Dad!) and baby can sport coordinating outfits. So get out your sewing machine – your kids, too, can be Teeny, tiny and trendy!
