Snap sleeper
"Lovely pattern to work with! I ended up using a zipper instead of snaps which worked well, even though there are no instructions for that."
Snap Sleeper
$9.00
Say hello to your new favorite sleeper!! This adorable slim fitting pattern comes in sizes Preemie — 5T. Here are the fun options included:
- Cuffed mittens or regular cuffs for the wrists
- Footies or cuffs at the ankles
- Gusset or no gusset
- Bound front or folded front with neckband
The folded front with neckband doesn't require any binding and the neckband is nicely encased by the fold. You will need interfacing for this version to enforce the area to make sure that your snaps don't pull through. We hope you give this awesome staple a try and love it as much as we do!
Pattern Type:
PDF (Includes Layered Pattern and Instructions) - Letter (works with A4 paper/A0/Projector Optimized
Skill Level:
Advanced Beginner/Intermediate (grading to get the right fit may take a little more effort if your kiddos measurements are between sizes but don't let that deter you, it's worth the effort!)
Sizes & Fabric Quantity:
P - 9/12M: 3/4 yard
12M - 3T: 1 Yard
4T - 5T: 1 1/4 yard

A quick note before you dive in: Our patterns include multiple files so you can sew the way you like—at home on a printer, at a copyshop (A0), or with a projector.
Quick answers
- After checkout, you can download your pattern from the confirmation page, from the email we send, or anytime under Account → My Downloads using the same email you purchased with.
- Your files come in a .zip. It’s easiest to download on a computer, unzip, and you’ll see: Instructions, Letter/A4, A0, and a Projector file.
- Printing at home? Open the Letter/A4 PDF in Adobe Acrobat Reader and print at 100% (Actual Size), then check the test square.
- Prefer no paper? Use the Projector file. It includes a calibration layer so you can confirm scale before you cut.
- Need a big print? Send the A0 file to a local copyshop or an online printer.
- If you get stuck, email hello@lowlandkids.com and we'll be happy to help!
⸻
Downloads & accounts
How do I get my files?
Right after payment you’ll see a download button on the confirmation page. We also email you links in your order confirmation email. And you can log in to our website any time and find everything under View Downloads.
What pattern files are included?
Four PDFs: Instructions, Letter/A4 (home printing), A0 (copyshop), and Projector.
Can I download on my phone or tablet?
Yes! Check out our Printing and Projector tips page for specific guidance.
⸻
Projector sewing (quick start)
Do your patterns include projector files?
Yes—our current catalog includes projector-optimized files for nearly all patterns. You’ll see “Projector” listed in each download.
How do I check scale?
Open the Projector file and turn on the calibration layer. Confirm the 1” / 2.5 cm squares measure correctly. If you move your projector or cutting surface, re-check before you cut.
Any setup tips?
Keep the text/markers layer visible. If labels look faint, check your PDF viewer’s accessibility settings and disable “replace document colors.” You can also enable the black background layer for higher contrast.
⸻
Print-at-home (Letter/A4)
1. Open the Letter/A4 PDF in Adobe Acrobat Reader.
2. In the print dialog, choose Actual Size (100%) and auto portrait/landscape.
3. Print the page with the test square first; measure to confirm scale.
Troubleshooting:
- If the whole pattern prints on a single page, you likely opened the wrong file (use Letter/A4, not A0 or Projector).
- If lines look fuzzy or misaligned, try “Print as image,” make sure your printer driver is up to date, and restart your computer.
⸻
Copyshop / A0
Download the A0 file and send it to a copyshop or an online service. Many sewists print a single master copy and trace sizes as needed.
Note that we protect our patterns by locking the pdf files to prevent editing in tools like Adobe Illustrator. In rare circumstances copy shops might use software that invisibly requests edit access and will show errors when attempting to open our files.
⸻
Layers (print only the sizes you need)
All patterns include layers. Open the Layers panel in Acrobat Reader and hide sizes you don’t need. This keeps lines clear and makes grading between sizes easier.
⸻
Sizing & skill level
Each product page shows the skill level and links to the size chart. If measurements land between sizes, it’s common to use the width of one size and the length of another.
⸻
What machines do I need?
A regular sewing machine is all you need to start. A serger is optional but great for knit fabrics and tidy seams. A coverstitch is helpful for professional hems but not required.
⸻
Can I sell what I make?
Yes—items must be sewn by you personally. Mass production or outsourcing isn’t allowed. For manufacturing inquiries, email us.
⸻
Need help?
We’re happy to troubleshoot downloads, printing, or projector setup. Email hello@lowlandkids.com and include your order email and a screenshot of your issue if you can.

Easy and adorable!
"I just hate sewing zips so this Lovely pyjama with snaps is just Perfect!"
Easy and adorable
"I love everything about this pattern. The options. The written instructions, the easy to “reference back to” photos within the instructions. It was so quick to sew up! I’ll be making more."
Love love love the jumpsuit
"I love this pattern, instructions were very well written and it was very easy to sew. I struggled a bit with the neckline, but made it work. The size seems a bit off. I wish I made the larger size, because it's not gonna fit a dutch sized baby from said age. Maybe it would be possible to add a sizechart of the finished product? Then I could compare it with a jumpsuit of the size I wanted to make. Size aside, I love the jumpsuit I made."
I'm absolutely in love with the snap sleeper
"It's very easy to follow and the results makes the effort! I encourage you to try it, I did one and I'm already planning doing more!!!"
difficult to undersstand
"I have commented on another post that I found the cutting schedule for this pattern confusing, as it refers to 2 versions of the Romper. In particular the assembling diagram is not very clear and the selecting of the relevant pieces to cut for the chosen version is difficult, as different versions are printed on the same sheets. Tow separate cutting schedules and descriptions would have resulted in less paper wastage and avoided cutting the fabric wrongly"
Parfait
"Parfait"
Thumbs up!
"Have always wanted to try this pattern but was too nervous about the snaps and binding! Finally decided I better just try it and soo glad I did! Super fun and instructions were very detailed!"
Ook bij dit patroontje is
"Ook bij dit patroontje is het me niet gelukt om te printen op A4, kan dat eigenlijk wel? Enorm mooi gelukt hoewel ik heel eigenwijs een eigen mengvorm maakt, ik zal dit zeker vaker gaan maken!"
Beautiful sew, easy to follow
"Beautiful sew, easy to follow the pattern instructions and sew up. Can’t wait to see how it fits my friends daughter. I did size 0-3."
