My latest cloth diapering pursuit is the wool soaker. With a new baby on the way, I am thrilled to be knitting away sweet little pants to keep babies bottom dry. I haven't tested them out myself yet, but the feedback on wool is amazing - so many mothers swear by keeping their cloth diapered babies in wool! I am currently working on soakers for both my sweet baby Helen and her new little sister.
