This pattern is available from etsy.com for $4.00.

This is a fun pattern that uses two strands of yarn (one strand of any worsted weight yarn and one strand of fun fur yarn) held together as one. This creates a visually appealing, nest-like appearance.

This pattern is knit using circular knitting needles so there are no irritating seams.

Newborn babies love to curl up in the fetal position during their first few weeks of life. Now you can capture that moment forever on film. Makes the perfect photography prop!

Some photographers use this prop as a nest/bowl and others flatten it out as a place for baby to sit or lie down. Some photographer insert the nest into a wooden, branch-like nest and others use this nest like a bowl.
