Sock Monkeys are all the rage in Baby decor right now. What a great way to tie into that theme by giving a swaddling blanket that is LITERALLY a little sock monkey hugging the baby. The hat and swaddling ties are detachable so that the blanket and hat can grow with baby. The two strand and large hook method also give the hat plenty of stretch to grow with Baby. Not to mention the large hooks make this pattern work up SUPER fast with a GREAT textured Chunky Stitch, great for showing up on camera too!
