I am posting this here as well as on the source blog because it is a major safety issue:
First of all, I think this is a really cute toy for any infant!
However, I hate to be the bearer of bad tidings, but the loops on this toy are not safe for babies. They can get wound around their fingers or toes and cut off the circulation.
My daughter almost lost a finger to a very similar loop of ribbon on a stuffed animal She was lucky that we were able to catch it in time.
The project can be just as visually interesting and entertaining with a ribbon fringe instead of loops. You can either seam up the middle of the loop or cut the loops at the top and give a quick rolled finish to the ends.
May you and your babies enjoy this wonderful project in good health!
