Surface Forms

Snuggie singular
Snuggies plural

Morphology

Snuggie = snug (semi-transparent) = snug + ie

Formed from 'snug' + the diminutive/productive suffix '-ie', so the cozy sense is clear but the specific product design (a sleeved blanket) is not directly deducible from the base.

Etymology

Snuggie comes from the English word snug, meaning 'comfortable and warm', plus the friendly ending -ie that makes it sound small or cute. That's why a Snuggie is a warm blanket with sleeves.
