My baby mermaid tail cocoon will keep precious little ones cozy and warm while at the same time offering the perfect photo outfit for newborns to up to 6 months of age. It’s a quick and easy one skein project, making it ideal for last-minute gifts at baby showers, birthdays and Christmas.

The baby mermaid tail cocoon is one size around (approximately 19”/48 cm at the top edge), and with the tie at the waistband it can be adjusted to keep even tiny preemie babies feeling secure and warm.

The pattern is worked using a G - 6 (4.00 mm) crochet hook and light worsted yarn (double knitting/8ply).

You will only need one 4 oz skein (100g ball) of light worsted (double knitting/8ply) yarn to complete the baby mermaid tail cocoon.

My patterns are written in plain English using standard US terms, which makes them easy to follow whether you are a newbie crocheter or you have many years of experience, but you can always message me if you have any queries about my patterns.

Watch the delight on the faces of new parents when you present them with a baby mermaid tail cocoon, made with love by you!
