Help Prevent Shaken Baby Syndrome

Did you know that all babies go through what is called the “Period of Purple Crying”? This is the time that new parents are most vulnerable to loosing their cool and babies are most susceptible to shaken baby syndrome. 

Period of PURPLE crying

That’s why Yarn & Thread Expressions is participating in “Click for Babies”, I knitting and crocheting campaign that raises awareness and helps remind new parents understand that increased crying in the first few months is normal. 

You can learn more at Click for Babies

There are several knit and crochet patterns available online or feel free to use your own pattern!

Requirements:

  • hats should be made out of soft, baby friendly yarn
  • hat needs to be at least 50% purple
  • no adornments that could be choking or strangulation hazards

So, what are you waiting for? Grab your needles or hook and let’s see how many hats we can collect.!

We’ve added some incentives
