This pattern is called peeping cats because of the stitch (cats on a fence). I made this car seat cover with detachable straps so that they can be placed in multiple ways. And also so that once the baby grows out of the infant car seat they have a nice cozy blanket to snuggle with and then have an heirloom to pass on.
