I finished this swaddle sack a few weeks ago, and then gave it to a friend who was expecting a baby boy. Last week I had the opportunity to find out if it was the right size for a newborn, and I was really happy with how it looked. This is my first attempt at a sack with a hood, and I think I really like it.
I did the bottom of the sack with a spiral pattern, it made for a nice little detail to take a picture of. I'll have to tweek it a little more, finish up the pattern and make a pink version of it. So watch for more swaddle sacks to come!
This prop ended up being very versatile. Not only could we swaddle the baby in it, but it also added a fluffy texture for pictures with baby on his tummy.
I'll be able to make this pattern up very quickly, I'll most likely make the pattern with variations for different types of yarns...it would be a great beginner project.
