Fabrics and yarns must be very soft and machine washable. Avoid scratchy, rough, or stiff fabrics/yarns. Acrylic yarns are best; cotton yarns are acceptable but tend to work up too stiff for tiny babies. Do NOT use yarn that is excessively old. Yarn can become dry and brittle with age. “Scratch Test” when choosing yarn or fabric. Rub the yarn/fabric on the inside of your upper arm or neck. If it feels scratchy, it is too rough to be used to make preemie items. You can be as creative as you want. Items may be sewn, knitted, crocheted, made of fabric, or felt. Just remember that they need to be simple and easy to put on and take off. It can be something that is laid over the baby’s chest/legs with hats and booties…etc.
Size charts found at this link... https://petitebijouxproject.weebly.com/measurement-guide.html If you have questions, contact us. Please make sure that the costume is constant in size. If you are making for a 2lber then hat booties and cocoon should all measure for that gestational length. |
