  3. just found your blog while searching for patterns for baby cocoons/sleep sacks. I crochet and a photographer friend asked me to make her some things as a trade for some family photos :). I am just trying out patterns and wanted to try some of yours :). If she uses the things I make I will get some pics for you. I also just opened an etsy site recently and was wondering if it would be ok to sell things I make from your patterns. I haven't read through many posts yet, but I am also a homeschooling mom :).
