thanks Gudism!
Ok back to your prewash woolies question.
My LJ's are lanolising as we speak and the water is a gorgeous FLURO blue.... should i have prewashed after all??? Will they stain when on overnight with the wee etc???
Ali I think you just outbid me!!
I thinhk we need ot coordinate this ebay LS puchase otherwise we will both end up paying more than if we had have bought it new!! I only had $60 to spend now they are all over that! lol
LS - from watching for a few weeks.
MOst sell between 65-70 anyhow. You would be lucky to get one for under $60.
I can order you one from ABA... ill check the price but was cheaper than i paid brand new!!!
Acutally just checked. Even with my 10% discount - Still be $75

Limey both of the of the LS I have bid on are still under $50. If I get both I will send one your way. If I dont get any then I will drive to natures cradle and buy one coz it will work out cheaper than paying retail and postage.
I just ordered some Rainbow LJ's .....Katrina at Boorai i posting them for me today........now I must stay away from any nappy sites.....am waiting on L'js 2 b4b wins and a cute tooshie.
PP - yeah, Im not toohopeful about scoring one under $60 - will just have to wait for another months....my scraper is doing the job! lol
Gigi - I do prefer the narrow crotch nappies, as you know, aside from that though, anything I am willing to try. I have some fluffles, but they will be too small by summer (almost too small now really) and I am really not fussed with getting more of those. I want fitted really cos they are easy for DF to use. He can use the pickets and the AI2's but he cannot touch the microfibre (like the BumG inserts) - he has a similar problem to Christy with the minky, he cant bring himself to physically touch it, so I have to prestuff them all! lol
Looking preferably for something fairly good value too....Cannot justify spending $40 on a berry plush or anything So yeah, fitteds, any pattern any fabric, we dont have any reaction issues or anything so anything is a goer! But I do want something purdy to show off cos they are for summer so she will be nappy flashing quite a bit!
Oh, and I like aplix, she likes snaps lol but either or is ok - they will have a cover anyway so she only plays with it when she is bored
Thanks hun!!
BTW, I sent you a MASSIVE email yesterday, then as soon as I hit send my puter had a spas attack...did you get it or not? Realllly dont want ot have to type it all out again, but I want you to get your email!!
Mo - awesome news hun! I'm thinking PINK!!
have hungry child climbing on me...better go feed and then nap time!! woohoo!!
WOHB: BumG....about to be changed to....BumG!! lol
Who was asking about the sewn in itti bittis, was that Nelle? Anyway, I have both sewn in & snap in, and I much prefer the sewn in. I'm not really sure why, but I tend to use them first, then when they're all dirty, then I use the snap in.
I've been as sick as a dog since yesterday with the flu, so I haven't even bothered looking at the new BBH I got. Once they're prewashed, I'll let you all know how they go.
Congratulations Mo!! I hope you have a wonderful, uneventful pregnancy.
WOEB: pink bbh magicall
WONB: sposie - she's at daycare
if i drop a stitch.. do i have to unravel everythign ive done and start again!!!
And how come i start witha cast off of 48 and i now have about 70?
i am soo doing something wrong i know!
Not all of the stitches are in a nice row hanging under my needle.. some are wrapped around and all over the place.
perhaps buying is easier!
(and can i say... the dogs barking next door again for almost 4 hours... so nice!!!! rahhhhhhhh)
Limey doesn't it suck now that you can't see the username of the leading bidder! I know in the past a few times I saw a name I recognised so kept away.
Mo that is a great result Congrats!
I have the snap in ittis. Haven't got any of the AIO's as yet. For those who have them how quickly do they dry? I love the snap ins because they dry almost overnight and I've never had to put them in the dryer.
ETA PP no! Do you have a crochet hook? If not you can still pick them up, it is a bit tricker though. There is a great tutorial on knittinghelp on how to pick up stitches that has saved my skin! Will PM you the link.
ETA x 2 Ummmm not sure what you are doing there to be picking up extra stiches. What are you trying to knit? is it ribbing or just plain stockinette stitch?

: answer PP.
PP, sounds like you have been adding a few stitches here and there It is possible to repair a dropped stitch, but it is hard for me to explain. I really recommend that you go to the library and borrow a book called 'Instant Expert Knitting' It will show you how to pick up a dropped stitch.
Keep practising hun, it will come. I have been knitting for about 10 years and only recently started prctising again and what do you know, I am making longies for a swap with a lovely BB member
Been thinking of starting a cover knitting thread for the last couple of weeks and have decided now is a good a time as any Especially now there are a few knitters amongst us! https://www.bellybelly.com.au/forums...ml#post1359340
