I really like these shorties. I knitted them from wool combined with silk. I hope I can get some more of this to knit with.
What else of interest we have? Silk liners, which I was given, which was nice. Have yet to use these. We have plenty of boosters but don't use that many. I don't think my baby is a big wetter.
Since discovering soakers and longies I have also discovered addi turbos so I have finally learnt to knit in the round. I find them hard to knit with and though I appreciate the quality I don't see how they make it quicker to knit with. I have also knitted with Treliske organic wool. I appreciate this as my boy has severe eczema and rather buy organic where I can.
What am I waiting on? A Disana knitted nappy. It cost me 7.50 and is what I can tell, a tie on flat cum fitted. I am interested in trying new nappies (as if any are old to me?!!!)
What do I want to try? A soy/bamboo nappy - very soft. An itti bitti nappy (hah! good luck!) - these are hard to obtain but well loved by those who are lucky enough to have used one on their bubs.
I am trying to ban myself from buying more nappies but its so hard when you see all the amazing things people make. There are many talented WAHMs making nappies and covers (not to mention other things) and I like to support them as well as having nice, rare, beautiful and practical things.
How to justify the buying of these beautiful things - money makes the world go around. Better to support this than waste it on things at dept stores or disposable nappies even. Isn't that a great reason?
And reason enough?
