I've been knitting and crocheting again. The first time in years. I made Lilly some wool soakers for sleeping. The ones at the top are made from possum and Merino wool, they are so soft. I used the Curly Purly pattern and it worked great. Although I did make them a little large, nothing a bath of hot water can't fix!
The crochet soakers were very quick to make.I've added links to the patterns I used. They work really well at keeping the bedding dry at night. Very important as Lilly sleeps with Peter and I most nights. I've bought some lanolising balls to lanolise them. I'm now working on a pair of shorties. I've also bought some beautiful hand dyed wool from Dyelicious on Ozebaby. I can't wait for it to get here. I'll make Lilly some longies with it.Will post some pictures when I've finished. I had forgotton how much I enjoyed knitting in front of the cricket.
