My running buddy has a habit of kicking her legs when she’s happy…and riding in her stroller makes her happy! The result of this is that she kicks off her blanket, it rolls under the stroller tires, onto the road and then under my feet. This makes for a cold baby and extra laundry for me ;) So I decided to make a little wearable blanket that would keep her lower half warm, would stay in place and would not hinder the stroller buckle. I made it using 100% wool so that I could lanolize it and use it as a diaper soaker at night, which would keep her chubby legs warm without me having to worry about a blanket covering her face. It also works great in the carseat!
