Thanks for sharing your pattern. Looks like it can be done fairly quickly. I need to get going on 2 baby gifts, both are boys & this seems like a good idea. (especially since I've dragged my feet) One of the little ones was just born the other day.

I will post the overall size measurements soon. My house is in an uproar due to a new living room floor being installed. I will try to find both my sleep sack and a measuring tape tonight. Thank you all for your kind comments.

Great pattern! I am going to start as soon as I get the yarn today! Several patterns state to chain 2 does not count as stitch. Then it goes on to say DC in same stitch. This is confusing to me and I think it causes my projects to grow! Please set me straight, because I am totally ready to begin your lovely pattern. Thanks.

I make baby preemie caps for the Children's Hospital as my charity work (My daughter was born at 28wks 2lbs 8oz) and I think theese would absolutely be great as matching sets! thanks for the pattern!
