Hat, Skirt, 2 more diapers!

October 17, 2009 --
These knitting needles were hard at work the past week. In that time I've finished Haley's skirt for Halloween (she wants to be Minnie Mouse), Baby's coming home hat, and drawstring cords for all the wool pants I've knitted.

Haley's skirt. The white drawstring will be tied like a great big bow around her waist. We've got a red shirt, black leggings, red shoes, and Minnie Mouse Ears for her. I'll post pictures around Halloween. I didn't use a pattern for this -- just sort of knitted it up. Haley now wants me to make her a dress!
Baby's coming home hat. I can't post this with the outfit I've picked out because that's a surprise but here's the hat. The yarn is super soft, chunky, and knit into those stripes without being asked. It ends in a little yellow circle at the very top!
The newborn diaper stash. In the left corner we have 2 dozen preemie prefolds. The three top most rows are fitteds, the row with UCONN is a set of AIOs, and the entire front row is waterproof covers. The four blue covers are THirsties Duo Wrap (size one) and fit newborn - 18lbs so I'm pretty excited about the versatility of these covers. For those of you new to cloth, there are snaps in the front that extend or shrink how tall the covers are and, of course, the velcro extends the circumference.
**If you look at the row to the right, second diaper down from the top -- it's new. It's a really cute bird pattern that I picked up last week when buying the fabric for my gigantic quilt. I made one up in newborn and one in small, as well as making teal fleece pants (not pictured) to match.
The SMALL stash.
We have 2 dozen infant prefolds, fitteds, AIOS, and 3 Fuzzi Bunz pockets.
