The Baby Bundle: A Blanket, a Onesie and a Bib in One Gift

At every baby shower, there's a moment when someone opens a handmade gift and the room goes quiet, then everyone wants to hold it. We make our baby bundle for that moment.

Three pieces, one look

Each bundle includes three crocheted pieces made to match:

• A baby blanket for cuddles, car seats and tummy time
• A onesie, for photos and special days
• A bib, the hardest-working item in any nursery

Everything is made with Bernat Baby Sport acrylic yarn, which is soft, lightweight and made for babies.

Choose your colors

• Bright yellow with a white border, cheerful and gender-neutral
• Cool blue with a green and white blend, calm and fresh

Easy to care for

New parents don't have time for fussy laundry. These pieces machine wash on the delicate cycle in cold water and keep their shape. That makes this a handmade gift people will actually use, not just keep in a drawer.

Why handmade baby gifts matter

Baby clothes get outgrown in weeks, but handmade pieces tend to stay in families. The blanket becomes a lovey. The onesie goes into the memory box. Years later, someone holds it up and says, "Look how tiny you were." That's what you're really giving.

Add a little extra

Round out the gift with a soft crochet baby beanie, or a baby-size granny square hat for when the weather turns cold.
