No one is hating. This is a nice idea but a hoodie is a strangulation risk for that age. Knit a nice cardigan instead.

I'd love one. I'd do 9-12 months.

You had quite the chunker! Mine too - she's 7 yrs old and wears size 10. Very tall.

My babies were outside all the time. That seems like a weird assumption.

I'd go with 12 months. You want baby to be able to wear it through much of the next winter.

I am thinking 6 to 9 months but wondering if there is a chance that will be too small once it’s cold enough?
