Rachel Jane Stroller Cozy, Blanket, and Sham

The Rachel Jane Stroller Cozy set is an original design by Ruth I. Forbes designed January 14, 2005. It’s one of her many crochet patterns that exude romantic and luxurious stitch patterns.

It was inspired by Ruth’s other crochet design, Rachel Jane Sunday Ensemble (long dress, jacket, bonnet, and boots) that came about when Ruth’s eldest granddaughter, Rachel, was due to be baptised.

The sham was created as a prop for a photography session in which the baby was propped up on a pillow to better show off the dress – and baby! Please note that the sham is for photographic aid only and is not to be placed in the crib for the baby to sleep on.

The covers and sham accommodate the same stitch pattern and borders as the dress ensemble, and the ribbon in matching colour adds the finishing touch for a perfect ensemble for your baby.
