In response to a few emails, here is the pattern for my hoodie baby blanket - Please email me if you have any trouble with the directions – this is my first take at writing a pattern so it might be kind of sloppy =o) I even had the courage to add this to Ravelry! Any feedback will be greatly appreciated.
**UPDATE** My apologies to everyone for a major oversight in the pattern. The directions on how to begin the hoodie section were missing. I have uploaded a new pdf to both the download link and to Ravelry. Please feel free to email me if the pattern is still unclear, and a special thank you to Turquoise for pointing out the problem to me!
I just want to point out one thing about the ties on the hood: Do not make them long enough to actually tie under the baby’s chin – that would be a hazard and the ties are not intended to be used in this way, they are just there as decoration, and to make the hood a little snugger when needed.
Edit: You can now download my pattern here:
This is so beautiful, and practical! I’d love for you to submit this to the M&T Spotlight – http://www.makeandtakes.com/spotlight
what a brilliant idea!! i love this.. definatley going to make some of these for my new bubba.. gives me something to create why hes in my belly oven! lol. thanks for the awesome pattern xoxo
This is such a beautiful blanket and so very easy once you understand how to do it. It took me a couple “redo’s” before I understood the pattern. I am making these to take to Kenya Africa on a Humanitarian trip with my husband and others in January where we will be working in Orphanages and the village hospital. These will make wonderful blankets to give to newborns. Thank you for sharing this pattern.
I’m having trouble with the hood. Can you please explain how you did the hood for me? Thank You! I Love the pattern!
