Cast on 19 sts for the newborn-6mo size or 23 sts for the 6mo-12mo size
Row 1: Knit all sts
Row 2: Knit all sts
Repeat in garter stitch until your piece measures 1.75in (4cm) about 14 rows

Bind off leaving a long tail for seaming.
Thread a tapestry needle with your yarn tail and whip stitch the cast on and bind off edges together to make a tube.
Then thread your yarn around and around one of the open edges of the tube to draw it closed like a drawstring. Knot the end and cut the excess. Turn your project inside out and you’re done! (well, you gotta make another one)
