Hooded Baby Snuggler Blanket
Crochet Pattern
By Sara Sach Of Posh Pooch Designs
I designed The Hooded Baby Snuggler Blanket for a sweet
friend that is about to have her first baby. She just let me
know that she is having a boy. I am very happy and
excited for her.
I designed this Snuggler remembering something similar
that was given to me when I was having my first baby.
I loved and used it quite a lot. It can swaddle the baby,
as well as, used as a basic blanket, and a hood because
we need to keep babies heads warm.
It's perfect for feeding time, cuddle time, as well as,
tummy time.
The Blanket Measures 24 X 32 inches, it is intended for a
newborn to about a 6 month baby. You can easily make it
larger just by continuing the repeat row for as big as you
would like.
I designed it with 2 different medium (4) weight
acrylic yarns. The baby variegated yarn is Sundance
Scramble in the Little Baby color. The Blue is I Love
This Yarn from Hobby Lobby in the baby blue color.
The Blue is basically the trim and can changed to pink,
yellow or white to match the Blanket.
