My first niece is due in weeks and I made her a special little sleep sack. My sister refuses to have her naked for newborn pictures, so this gives her one option for capturing her cuteness in those first weeks.
I started the snuggie before Christmas and set it aside as I do many projects. When digging it out yesterday I could not find the pattern :( Checked my bag for a print - nope. Checked my library on Ravelry - nope. Checked my Knits board on Pinterest - SCORE! Next problem, could not remember what row I was on. After a couple rows of trial and error, I was back on track.
In finishing, it was tough to pin the sides in just the right spot. I attempted a pink ribbon in place of the button but couldn't get it to lay quite right. After three attempts with the button, I started clapping...I had found the sweet spot.
Here is the pattern for the sleep sack and for the matching hat. Happy knitting!
