Out with the old and in with the new! Introducing the Crochet Steampunk Baby Outfit Pattern. I just love fun and unique newborn outfits. Steampunk is a fun theme and also adds so much cuteness factor. What’s better than goggles and gears?
Steampunk started as a science-fiction sub-genre in the 1970’s and has blossomed into a following of fun Victorian inspirations to this day. It combines the romantic Victorian ere’s with science elements for a fashion that’s out of this world.
This outfit is great for a newborn photography session, event costume, or Halloween costume. It even fits a build-a-bear! A fun new outfit for a stuffed animal. It should always be used with supervision due to the button choking hazard.
What isSteampunk?
Steampunk is a style of fiction having to do with a semi-fictional world where old machinery from the Victorian 19th century is still being used!
Want to dress up in Steampunk? Be sure to use goggles, hats, boots, gloves, and corsets.
