Stitch Markers!

I've started making snagless stitch markers! They are beautiful and amazing. I love coming to a stitch marker now!

Small Longies for a YYMN custom. Seed stitch cuff.

If I'd only known then...

Okay, I normally don't do this, but I'm going to promote a product.

If I could start parenting all over again, using cloth diapers I would...

BUY ALL GOODMAMA'S!!!!!

In all seriousness, I would recommend to any new parent this:
For the brand new baby stage, Bummis Super Whisper Wraps and prefold diapers works best.
But once they reach about 10#, I'd put them in Goodmama's. Goodmama's will fit from then until forever (it seems).
I've been using GM's (Goodmama's) on both our 5 month old (since she was 2 months old) and our 2.5 year old (with room to grow). I have one stash that fits them both equally well, since GM's are a one-size diaper.
We use them and covers. I also have some knitted covers for them as well.

They come in great prints or solids. They are the softest diapers I've ever felt! The velour on the inside washes really well.

And for all you out there who don't want covers, they are now making them as All-In-Ones! Waterproof. I haven't tried those yet, but I would really love to!!

Here's our stash:



















*I have in no way been paid for my rave review.
If you're from the Goodmama company and wish to thank me for my GM love (ex: send me a freebie), please feel free to contact me! ;)

Finally!

I finally marked a spot on my customs list for one of our children! I was able to whip this set up in less than a week. (Keep in mind, I only knit after the kids go to bed.)

I fell in love with this yarn colorway on hyena cart. It's "Kara" by A Time to Dye on Cestari Superfine Merino. I'd worked on Cestari before and had mixed feelings about it. It was soft, but had lots of twigs/hay in it, then it got really thin in one spot and really messed up the gauge. But, I had already ordered this. So, I knew I had to try Cestari again. I LOVE IT!

This is the softest wool I've ever used!!! This batch of Cestari had way less "stuff" in it and it stayed a consistent weight. Wahoo!!

So, here it is, Mojo's Halloween set. Longies and a pixie hat on Cestari Superfine.

Okay, here are some of the cuffs I can do. There are more, but this is all that I have pictures of at the moment. Once I get to my own custom spot for our DD, I'll make up some of the less asked for add-ons to share. :)
