Do you have a baby car seat sleepsuit for your baby? If not, then you need one! It's the perfect addition for a new babys' closet.

Here's some of the great features of this sleepsuit...

  • 2 full length zippers for easy access
  • holes front and back at crotch allowing seatbelt to slot through comfortably
  • detachable hood - uses 4 buttons to attach hood to suit
  • fits age 1 - 9 months
  • dimensions - chest - 22 inches, length - 22 inches, sleeve seam - 7 inches
  • does not interfere with normal seatbelt use
  • stitches used - chain, single crochet, slip stitch, (also back stitch for sewing in zippers)
  • yarn - worsted weight/aran/8ply

Picture this - you're on the way home at night and baby falls asleep in the car fully clothed. You really don't want to wake them up to get their pajamas on, so what do you do?

It's not really very comfy to sleep in clothes, is it? I know I don't like it. You try to keep them warm in a blanket, but they kick the blanket off as you're driving. You can't put it back in place while you're moving - chilly, unhappy baby.

So - wouldn't it be useful to have this sleepsuit you could use in the car seat? Then you can transfer a happy sleeping baby right into bed if you need to, without waking them.

Here's the answer - crochet this baby car seat sleepsuit, then when you're out somewhere but ready to leave, get baby into suitable sleepwear/underwear, pop them into this sleepsuit and into the car seat they go.

There's even pattern instructions for a detachable hood , which can be buttoned to the sleepsuit for travelling, then you can remove it before placing baby comfortably in bed.

The 2 zippers which go the full length of the baby car seat sleepsuit allow you to quickly and easily snuggle baby inside.

The sleeves can be easily folded back for smaller babies, and there is plenty of space for baby to be able to wriggle little legs inside and still stay warm.

The rabbit motif has loops at the ends of the ears which double as buttonholes for attaching the hood. There are also loops at the sides of the neck to attach the back of the hood.

The hood is not too large, so it won't fall over babys' eyes and frustrate them. That's happened to me too many times before!

So - I've thought long and hard about this baby car seat sleepsuit and now here it is. It's worked in worsted weight/aran/8ply yarn and works up quickly. No need to use the same colors - choose a color you like. Maybe work the front panel in a different color (you'll need an extra skein if you choose this option).

Any Mom would thank you for a gift like this. I wish I'd had one when mine were small!
