Specifications
Origin
The ODO coveralls are worked from top to bottom in half fisherman’s rib. To provide the necessary width, increases are worked on each side of the distinctive, 7-stitch raglan line. The garment is worked in rows to the end of the button band; then the sections are joined to work in the round; the legs and sleeves are also worked in rounds. The long button band, which ends just above the crotch, makes the coveralls easy to put on and take off – for example, for changing nappies.
The sizes correspond to a body length of 50–56 (58–68; 70–80; 82–86; 88–92) cm and an approximate age of 0–2 (3–6; 7–12; 13–18; 19–24) months. The coveralls fit very loosely with plenty of ease, allowing for freedom of movement and optimum wearing comfort. Thanks to their loose fit and variable length of the sleeves and legs (the cuffs may be turned up or worn long), the coveralls can be easily adjusted to the size of the baby and thus be worn for a long time.
