Since starting my page on Ravelry, this swaddle sack has consistently been a favorite! I’m so happy that people have enjoyed working with this pattern so much!
My favorite thing about this pattern is that the top is completely customizable! The buttons can go through any stitch and any row between rows 26 and 35, making it perfect for different size babies and for who sometimes want their arms swaddled in and other times prefer them out of the swaddle.
