When I was pregnant with my daughter, I decided that as a professional photographer I wanted a textured soft wrap of some sort for some newborn portraits after I brought her home. I started knitting cocoons. After Natalie was born, while we were in the hospital, my husband slipped her into the cocoon I brought with us. She was so comfortable, warm, and content… and she fell asleep almost immediately, sleeping for hours. My husband and nurses knew the cocoon would be a lifesaver for new daddies and mommies alike…. and I knew the cocoon was exactly what some photographers were looking for, for their photography.
My cocoons are hand knitted in tight, medium, or loose stitching. The loose stitch will allow for little toes and fingers to peek through, but still keeps baby warm and comfy. The tighter stitch hugs baby a little tighter and reminds him or her of the womb.
Cocoons start at $40.00 for any color and texture of yarn. Options are available… see below.
All cocoons must be hand washed and allowed to dry flat.
Cocoons are custom made to order. The below images are for visual… Make the cocoon something you’ll love!
Specify any option when you order, along with your color choice and if you’d like the yarn to have any accents. I will do my best to accommodate all orders.
