You may have noticed I haven't posted anything in a while. Why is this? Because I am a freak and when I get a new project in my head I don't let go until I have drained every last ounce of life from it. The project of the moment: Knitting
soakers and
longies! Oh yes, didn't you know I was 67 years old? Wool diaper covers kick ass, but they are stupidly expensive so I learned to knit. Take that 60$
Llamajamas! Look what I made:

I made this
soaker from a decaying old pattern book of my Grandmas. I have no idea what it's called and it kind of sucks because the crotch is too narrow and doesn't cover a diaper completely.

This one is from a free on-line pattern simply called Jenny's
Soaker. It was easy, but it's not pretty.
These were my first longies. Made from the Tiny Bird Soaker Pants pattern. I liked them so much I made two:

Then I made some more
soakers, but I looked at a bunch of free patterns then picked out which parts I liked and simplified the whole thing and came up with my very own
EdenSky original
soaker pattern.
TaDA! I'm totally having visions of opening my own
etsy shop now. My
dorkiness knows no bounds, but dude
I made these!

Why yes, there
was a sale on
burgundy and teal wool, why do you ask?

SO cute! You are so talented! I work part-time, so on days when I get to stay home with my baby, we do cloth diapers. I friggin' LOVE cloth diapering.
