Snuggle your new arrival in this baby sleep sack featuring top-down raglan construction with seed stitch edging. Body is worked flat to the placket join, then worked in the round. Sleeves are worked on DPN in the round. The sewn-on snap placket reaches way down baby’s legs to make those 3 AM diaper changes a little easier – no buttons to fiddle with, just easy peasy snaps.
