Snuggler Pattern
Sew up this cute Snuggler swaddle pattern from Lotta Jansdotter. This pattern is featured in her new book Simple Sewing for Baby: 24 Easy Projects for Newborns to Toddlers (published by Chronicle Books). You can check out my review of the book here. Swaddling is known to make babies feel safe like they are in the womb and helps them sleep better at night. You can sew this cute Snuggler pattern up this weekend!

Note: The PDF includes a tiled version as well as a full page pattern.

Printing

If you are lucky enough to get the pattern to load in Internet Explorer the printing options were available for me to tile large pages. So print it out directly from the web browser. Probably a good idea to make sure you have the latest version of internet explorer and the adobe reader plugin


You can not Tile Large pages with the free "reader" only version you need the Full version of acrobat.

Really disappointed........

I wish the tiling was working for this pattern. I can download it no problem, but when I try to print I only get partial pieces. I've tried it on several computers/printers with the same result.

Sorry for the delay folks. I'm working on getting our production designer to tile this so that it will fit on a home computer. Please stay tuned. I hope to have this up by today or early next week.

I tried everything that you suggested to try and yet still nothing. It downloads the first page and then just stops and freezes up on me. Could you try emailing the file to me and see if that works? Nikkiilee20@Hotmail.com

Thanks,
Nicole

pdf file swaddle blanket

Hi,

I just tried to download the pdf file for the baby swaddle blanket and was unable to get the file to work. It would only download the cover page and nothing else. Could you please email me the file for this pattern to nikkiilee20@hotmail.com. I would love to make a few of these for my future little one.

Thanks,
Nicole

Thank you

Thank you for helping me with downloading the snuggle pattern. My daughter will love it.

This is a large 10MB pattern file that is probably too large to view automatically in your browser. Your browser is probably timing out. Just right click and download the PDF to your desktop. (or if you are on a Mac, hold down the control key, and choose "download linked file") I just downloaded it and it's fine on my computer and i'm away now in NY.

Thank you for that, Natalie- I was unable to download more than the first page until I followed your suggestion.

Much appreciated!

Baby Snuggler

I am unable to download this pattern, I keep getting an error. any hints on how to download it? I would love to make it for my first grandchild.

needs this pattern

Hi I am unable to download this pattern. All I get is the first page of the PDF file and then it stops, because of a file error, could you possibly send it to my email? My sister is having a scheduled c-section next week, and he is preemie. I would LOVE to make her one of these, cuz it looks perfect!


Posted by: Stephanie on September 5, 2009 at 11:20 AM

Wish I could get the pattern

All I get is the first page, I can't the rest of the tutorial, or the pattern.

pattern printing problems

I am trying to print the pattern on my home printer - which only prints on 8.5x11 paper. Any hints on how to print out the tiled pattern? When I printed it out, taped it together and measured, there is no way the finished proeduct will sew up to be 20 inches long x 11 inches wide.

If I printed out the single page version, how much do I have to increase it by on a copier to get the correct sizing?

Thanks!!


Posted by: Natalie Zee Drieu on June 25, 2009 at 4:43 PM

Thanks for being patient with this. I'm finding out the information from Chronicle books.


Posted by: Rhonda on June 8, 2009 at 11:46 AM

I can't get the pattern to download either, it keeps saying the file is damaged and can't be repaired.
Can you reload?
Thanks

Posted by: Natalie Zee Drieu on June 2, 2009 at 10:13 AM

wow just the extra pictures makes a world of difference. Thanks so much for he instructions!!


Posted by: Natalie Zee Drieu on May 20, 2009 at 6:45 AM

I just downloaded the PDF again to test and the instructions are there. If you are in Preview on a mac, it doesn't show up in the nav for the sidebar. Just scroll down with the arrow keys and you'll see from page 2 on the instructions are there with the patterns at the end.

Still not working?

Wow, I was so excited to find this pattern but I just can't download it. I got my MIL to try and she can't download it either from her computer. I can get the first page of the pdf up ok and then it just freezes and does no more. Any chance you could email me the pdf?
Thanks so much
Agnes

Hmmm...I'm still not getting any instructions with the download...


Posted by: Natalie Zee Drieu on May 18, 2009 at 4:04 PM

Thanks for your patience. This pattern is now updated with instructions! Download away!


Posted by: Natalie Zee Drieu on May 17, 2009 at 7:13 AM

I'll check on this for you both and everyone else.


Posted by: GrowingLikeTrees on May 16, 2009 at 6:31 PM

Instructions please?

I second the request for instructions! Thanks for the pattern!


Posted by: Kelly Ward on May 16, 2009 at 4:44 PM

This looks like a great pattern. It would be nice to have assembly instructions(although that could be in the book). Thanks
