Valley Yarns Leafwing is a lovely baby cocoon that
will keep your little one warm and cozy on a chilly day knit in Valley
Superwash Bulky. The cocoon is knit in the round from the bottom up and then
divided for the button bands or bands so that you can sew twill tape with snaps. Cables travel up the front and continue onto the
hood, meeting at the top. Options are included for drop-shoulder sleeves or a cocoon with no sleeves. Valley Yarns Valley Superwash Bulky combines
extra-fine Merino softness, machine-washable ease, and incredible warmth into a
yarn that you won't want to live without in your stash! The cable
patterns are charted and written out.
Note: This sleep sack is not meant or recommended to be used with infants in car seats. It is not recommended that any bulky item be fastened in a car seat while on the child.
