How long will it take me to learn how to knit a Pram Suit?

[Squidstirfry]

Hello
I can't knit yet.
I can sew v well, and have knowledge of sewing patterns etc and am very 'crafty' so not a total novice.
I have been looking for gorgeous knitted baby clothes, there are a few on Etsy etc but the price tags are pretty high for what you get. I am thinking I may as well learn how to knit! My baby is due in 4 weeks and I am off work now. I'd like to have one made by 4 weeks time.

Shall I just do it and get a load of wool and knitting patterns, Or am I dreaming?

Any experienced knitters out there who know how long it takes to make a pram suit and learn how to knit from nothing???

What is a pram suit???

Are you wanting to do something like this, OP? I don't really know what a pram suit is. Other than I can see trying to get a wriggling baby in and out of one might be more trouble that it's worth :)

This isn't a beginner's pattern. I would start with something simpler, like a little jumper, maybe flax or Milo.

You can definitely learn to knit from t'internet, the Knit Freedom videos are great, and others will be along with alternative suggestions. The book that is most often recommended is Stitch and Bitch, although I swear by Knitting for Dummies, which is great.

If you want to give a rough idea of where you are we can see if a Mumsnetter might be nearby to give you a hand if you want some in person tuition, failing which your local yarn shop will be more than happy to help out.
