Wool Soaker

Well, the diapers are still a work in progress in terms of getting them to absorb. So in the meantime I made a wool soaker out of a sweater (aka a butt sweater, or a bum sweater). The sweater was 100% lambswool from Scotland, by way of the Salvation Army. I washed it in hot water and dried it in the drier. One adult sweater will yield 2 soakers and 1 pair of longies (long legged wool pants/soaker).
I ironed on her initials to the second soaker. There is no faded circle on it, the photo just appears that way.
