Snuggle


Since Roo is a Christmas baby, I've got lots of warmth to knit. My house gets pretty cold in the Winter, and since we'll likely be doing a fair amount of stroller-riding during the first few months, I wanted to make something toasty and snuggly and protective. A beer cozy, but for babies. A Baby Cozy.

Materials:

US 10.5 24-in. circular. US 11 dpns.
2 skeins Knit Picks Wool of the Andes Bulky
Tapestry needle
stitch markers
4 size 18mm buttons
1 size 20mm button

Gauge:

For snuggle: 18 sts and 20 rows = 4 inches.

For hat: 12 sts and 16 rows = 4 inches.

Snuggle Pattern:

Using circular needle, CO 32 sts. Work 2 rows in garter stitch.

K2, yo, k2, *m1, k2. Repeat from * to end. (47 sts).

Knit 5 rows.

K2, yo, k4, m1, *k3, m1. Repeat from * to last 2 sts, end k2. (62 sts).

Knit 5 rows.

K2, yo, k6, m1, *k4, m1. Repeat from * to last 2 sts, end k2. (77 sts).

Knit 5 rows.

K2, yo, k8, m1, *k5, m1. Repeat from * to last 2 sts, end k2. (92 sts).

Knit 3 rows.

BO 5 sts at the beginning of the next row, knit to end. Do not turn.

Join to begin working in the round. Place marker for round at center back. Work in stockinette until piece measures 17 inches. Work 4 more inches in garter stitch.

Work 2tog, work 21 sts, place marker, work 43 sts, place marker.

Sew together all sts between markers using kitchener stitch (if you have to fudge and move stitches around the markers a little, it's okay--the idea is just to have the snuggle lie flat). Weave in ends. Sew smaller buttons opposite buttonholes; they will move increasingly away from the edge.


Hat Pattern:

Using dpns, CO 4 sts. Work i-cord for one inch. Divide sts onto 4 needles, k f&b into every stitch (8 sts).

Knit 1 rnd.

K f&b into every stitch (16 sts).

*Knit 1 rnd.
(Knit to end of needle, m1 in space between needles) around.

Repeat from * until there are 48 sts.

Work even for 1 inch.

CO 4 sts. Purl 1 row. Turn. Do not join. Purl 1 row.

Next row: p2, yo, p2tog, purl to end.

Work in garter stitch until garter section measures 1 inch. BO loosely.

Weave in ends. Sew larger button opposite buttonhole.

    This is really cute and I am working on it right now, but I have cast on 3 times and after the 2 rows of kniting I can never come up with 47 stitches. I always comes up 43. Am I doing something wrong or is the pattern wrong? Please let me know.

    ReplyDelete
  10. Nikki Van De CarJuly 2, 2010 at 5:35 PM

    Hmm...well, I wouldn't be shocked if there was an error in the pattern...I've gone over the math, and it seems to work. Are you repeated from the asterisk or from the beginning of the row? There should only be one yarnover; the rest are all m1s (forgive me if this is a stupid question, I'm just trying to see how it would work.)

    This may seem like knitting heresy, but if you're still having problems, I would suggest casting on a few extra stitches and working from there.

    Best,

    Nikki

    Thanks so much for responding. I still came up with 43 stitches so I called a fellow knitter and ask her to work the same thing. She got 47, we figured out I did not make a M1 right. I was going into the front and back of the stitch. She told me to pick up the bar instead to M1 and when I did, I got the right number. Thanks so much for fellow stitchers.

    It's just to mark how to sew it--the end of round marker is in the center of the back, not on either edge.

    This is a very cute pattern. The instruction call for US 10.5 needles but then gives two very different gauges, one for the snuggle and one for the hat. They are quite different. Right now with the bulky yarn I'm using, I am not coming close to either one so am hoping you can clarify which one I should be adjusting for. Thanks

    ReplyDelete
  21. Nikki Van De CarJune 20, 2011 at 5:59 AM

    The hat uses the size US 11 dpns specified in the materials list--that's the gauge differnce.

    Hi Nikki, I found this pattern on ravelry.com and just fell in love with it!! I am not a knitter and so my grandma is making it for me. She is on her eighties and she is having a little trouble with some of the abbreviations.
    F&b ( she assumes this means front and back)
    I-cord
    M1 ( I saw there is a tutorial for that)
    BO loosely
    Thank you so much!!

    ReplyDelete
  23. Nikki Van De CarJuly 14, 2011 at 2:44 PM

    Hi Holli,

    There are tutorials for most of those online...An i-cord is knit using two double-pointed needles (and is totally optional, she could just bind off without making the i-cord).

    F&B is indeed front & back, and M1 is make one (it's an increase), and BO just means bind off or cast off, and you do it loosely by just not pulling too tightly.

    Best,

    Nikki

    One more question. My first grandchild was just born a preemie. She is about 3.5 lbs. I was wondering what the dimensions of this finished is. I am trying to figure out how to "shrink" it to adapt it to her. I am thinking it shouldn't be wider than 6" (flat) and maybe 10-12" long.She is 17" but seldom stretches out her legs. I made 2 newborn sized cocoons but would like to make a preemie size.

    love the buttons at the neck; most don't have that. It looks so much cozier.

    ReplyDelete
  26. Nikki Van De CarSeptember 17, 2011 at 11:21 AM

    Hmmm...well, I would probably stop increasing at 77 sts (or 62 if you think that's enough as you're knitting), and then yes, only knit in stockinette for six inches or so before working the garter stitch hemline.

    My very best wishes for your grandchild....

    I used to knit baby buntings out of doubled 'baby yarn' - they were way too heavy for Texas babies...Now I knit for great-grandbabies. I think I will adapt the bottom edge with buttons and buttonholes - to make diaper changes easy & quick. I'll send a pic when I finish it.

    This is a great pattern! The yarn listed was initially a bit misleading though, since the pattern says Wool of the Andes Bulky, and Wool of the Andes yarn is actually a worsted weight yarn. I was relieved, since I wasn't getting proper gauge on my bulky weight yarn and didn't know why. If anyone else is having gauge issues, that could be the reason.

    My daughter bought the book What to Knit when you are Expecting. I am the Grandma with lots of knitting experience and love the book. However, some of the patterns say they offer three sizes but the instructions are only in one size. I have made the baby cosy but I knitted it with ordinary needles as I dont like using the circular ones and it came out fine. Would like instructions for bigger sizes though please. Also can you please expaling why the Summer Sky Blanket calls for circular needle.
    Many thanks.

  39. Nikki Van De CarOctober 8, 2012 at 5:16 AM

    Hi there,

    It's true, many of the patterns come in three sizes, but some, like the baby cozy and the booties are only one size, since booties and baby buntings are usually only used for very small babies that aren't moving around yet. The hats, too, are only in two sizes. I could give you some advice for sizing up if you like.

    The Summer Sky blanket calls for a circular needle because the edging picked up along the outside can be quite long and tough to fit on a straight needle.

    Thank you for that, its just that at the start of the pattern it states 0-3 (3-6) (6-12)which confused me. Thanks anyhow the cosy looks really good.

    Hi, I'm just trying your baby cosy and I'm a bit stuck. I've completed the icord but what does kf&b into every st. 8 sts mean? Do I pick up one stitch on every needle as I go around until I have 8 on each? Sorry never used dpns before. Thanks

    ReplyDelete
  42. Nikki Van De CarNovember 15, 2012 at 10:29 AM

    Kf&b means knit into the front & back of the stitch--you knit into the same stitch two times, into the front loop as usual, and then before dropping the stitch, knit into the back loop as well. So when you've knit front & back into every stitch you'll have twice as many stitches as you started with.

    1649I am confused about how to end this: Work 2tog, work 21 st place marker, work 43 stitches, place marker. Do I do that more than once or just continue to knit after the last marker? I am going to be a first time grammy and can't wait for her to come. This is beautiful and I'm hoping that mine will be too. Like the idea of the bottom with buttons but not smart enough to figure that out, not an experienced knitter.

    You just do that the one time, and then you sew the two edges together. If you would like to work the bottom hem with buttons, I provide instructions for doing so in my book...

  47. Nikki Van De CarNovember 30, 2012 at 11:12 AM

    Well, dpns are a little hard to explain in words--there are lots of tutorials online though! Essentially, you knit each stitch on each needle--it's not that tricky once you know how to do it. I'd suggest taking a look at this: http://www.purlbee.com/double-pointed-needles-tutoria/

    It's using four needles instead of five, but the principle is the same, and it's well-explained. There are also lots of videos on youtube.

  49. Nikki Van De CarJanuary 27, 2013 at 11:21 AM

    Well, if you've got a longer needle, that shouldn't be a problem if you want to make a larger snuggle. I would work one more increase round than the pattern calls for, and then work a few inches longer in stockinette, and you should be fine.

    Hi, Just love this book and the snuggle sack and hat. However, the hat is for me a dilly! I have never used dpns before but I can make an I-cord on them - then when I put 1 st on each of the 4 needles they either fall off or get mixed up in order. I know how to knit f&b I just can't get this started and the nearest yarn shop is an hour away. The dpns videos only show one thing or the other any suggestions?

    Well...if you're familiar with the magic loop method, you could try that, but otherwise, I would suggest pulling the yarn very tight to keep it on the dpns. Or you could work in rows, and sew it up after.

    This is such a wonderful pattern! I made the snuggle a few months ago for my to-be little one (due in January) and just decided to make the hat. I've been struggling with baby hats in general... but wanted a bit of clarity on your instructions.
    When making the increases are you knitting a round, and then knitting around m1 at each space between the needle, then knitting a round, then one more with the increases? Or simply increasing each round? I hope my question makes sense!
    Thanks so much for the wonderful pattern!

    No worries--this seems very counterintuitive, but it's quite simple. All you do is turn as you would when knitting rows--you haven't joined to work in the round yet, is all, and I wanted to specify that. Just work in rows!

    Question: how wide was your cozy when it was finished? I started with size 11 needles and a bulky yarn and I may be half way done with the world's biggest baby cozy!

    ReplyDelete
  75. Nikki Van De CarMay 1, 2014 at 6:13 AM

    Mine was about 14 inches wide, but it depends on your gauge, of course--if it's feeling too wide, decrease a few stitches on either side. Of course, wider means the baby has more room to wiggle, which may not be such a bad thing...

I was hoping to make this snuggle just a tad bit bigger so he can wear it into May and be able to use it the whole time. I noticed the repeats were 8 stitches and the cast one was in multiples of 8. If I increased the cast on to 40 stitches do you think I will get the same results just a tad bit larger?

    Thank you
    Katherine

    Yeah, I think that would work great! Just remember to work the stockinette section a little longer too.

    Hi Nikki, I bought the book and I am finishing it up. I love it, but I have a question for you. In the book, you have buttons at the bottom. I love the detail. Frustratingly, I have lost the book, and I was wondering if you could post the end of the pattern if you are using buttons?
    Many thanks,
    Colleen.

    If Sandie with "ie" could comment on how her snuggle turned out in Oct. 2011, it would be great. Want to make one for grand#12. Baby will live in Tx. also. Opening at the bottom is such a good idea.

    Hi Nikki I'm new to knitting and I love this pattern but I have a question. After 17 inches in stockinette how do you do Garter stitch in the round for 4 inches

    So working garter stitch in the round is really easy! You just purl one round and then knit the next one!

    Hi. Love the pattern thanks, could you just confirm do I do stocking stitch for 17" from cast on row or 17" from when I start in the round with stocking stitch then another 4" ie 21" finished length or approx 24" finished length.

    Hi! You should do stockinette stitch from when you start working in the round, so 24" finished length...
