Another bum sweater



I made Lucy another "baby bum sweater" from this pattern. Again, where the three points came together, I ended up with a weird little peak, despite efforts to avoid it, so I hid it all behind a vintage button. This one is made from the softest cashmere. Our good friend Tim once had a lovely cashmere sweater, but it met with laundry disaster, so he donated it to the cloth-diapering cause (lucky Lucy!)

This style of diaper cover is my new favorite for summer--cute enough to show off under a dress, slim enough to fit under pants or a onesie, easy to put on and take off.

I just found your blog, and wanted to say this is so neat! I used to knit covers like this when my kids still wore diapers, but I never thought of sewing one out of an old sweater. I love the color by the way...brown clothing is one of my favorites...especially on kids.
