About this crochet pattern
This crochet car seat canopy is made for Star Wars fans, with a baby dressed as a little R2-D2-style droid. It is designed to fit most standard infant car seats.
The bottom is crocheted over elastic, so you strap the baby in and then put the canopy on, and it comes off just as easily. It is smaller than an afghan, which makes it quicker to make. The pattern is a step-by-step guide with many pictures and illustrations.
