This cozy nightgown can be smocked in the front, smocked in the front & back or not smocked at all. Three smocking designs are included with the pattern.  There are three different neck/collar choices, and cuffed or ruffle sleeves. This nightgown was designed keeping in mind how sensitive women's skin can be following open-heart surgery or a mastectomy. The generous opening makes it easy to get on and off without having to raise your arms over your head and it is also easy to nurse in. With a size range from XS to XXXL, everyone can make a comfy nightgown!
