Baby Cocoon Patterns
I just love baby cocoons. They're so cute and they work better than blankets. Not sure what a baby cocoon is? Check out this site to see some. These are cocoons sewn from fabric. They're precious when hand-knit. With baby cocoons, the baby stays covered and it gives the baby the same feeling of security he felt in the womb.
Think of the possibilities for these. You can make them in traditional pastel baby colors. Or, for your more lively friends, get wild and crazy! Knit some cocoons up in bright colors and stripes. These are sure to be the hit of your next baby shower.
Pattern #1
You just can't get more precious than this! This free pattern is a combination of baby cocoon and hat. This is the perfect pattern for making a brightly colored and striped cocoon.
Pattern #2
I like this pattern because of the roll top. It looks like it would be so soft for the baby and wouldn't irritate its little face or neck.
Pattern #3
Here's another basic baby cocoon pattern. I like how this one has the button at the top. With this option, you could make the cocoon more or less snug depending on how the baby likes it. If you live in warmer areas, you could unbutton the top to make it cooler for the baby.
I personally would like to design a baby cocoon so I could lace satin ribbon around the top and tie it in a big bow. Picture that in pastel pink with a big satin bow. Wouldn't that make great baby pictures?
