The shirt for a newborn is knitted from fine cotton thread. By alternating between knit and purl stitches, an elastic effect is created throughout the fabric. Parts of the shirt are joined with decorative stitches, and the collar, through which a woven strip is threaded, is made using crochet technique, and large loops. The shirt was worn with back closure, suitable for babies who can already sit or crawl. Such knitted shirts are more commonly used in colder days.
The shirt is part of the contents of the box labelled: This crocheted or knitted item is handmade by our late grandmother Fagioni. It was used as a baby wrap for Father when he was little in 1936.
