I am now making another one for my nephew who is due at the end of the month. 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?<br /><br />Thank you<br />Katherinepeachykathhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16098242169059364238noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5855814526345582865.post-70178880066221332242014-09-18T06:50:58.067-07:002014-09-18T06:50:58.067-07:00Hi, I'm sorry; the pattern is only available i...Hi, I'm sorry; the pattern is only available in a 0-6 month size.Nikki Van De Carhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17877527952720755130noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5855814526345582865.post-46254336978944824772014-09-17T15:04:32.357-07:002014-09-17T15:04:32.357-07:00Hi Nikki,

In the meantime I am in temp accommodation, and have put my book into the box which went into storage - big mistake, as I am in the middle of makeing a new snuggle!! <br />The pattern on the website doesn't have the same bottom - it's stitched together, but I really like the bottom with the buttons (like my book has) - would you be able to post the instructions for the flap and button holes?

I've been struggling with baby hats in general... but wanted a bit of clarity on your instructions. <br />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!<br />Thanks so much for the wonderful pattern!Brenna Mae Thomas-Googinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03234463000658346098noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5855814526345582865.post-48013660632183307912013-11-28T05:11:17.546-08:002013-11-28T05:11:17.546-08:00They're still there; you're just moving th...They're still there; you're just moving the end of round to the back of the snuggle--you'll still be working with all 88 stitches.Nikki Van De Carhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17877527952720755130noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5855814526345582865.post-13612653857864205652013-11-27T19:53:28.798-08:002013-11-27T19:53:28.798-08:00Hi Nikki,
