Wool Soaker for Piper


Wool Soaker for Piper
Originally uploaded by chili powder
Here is my first wool soaker for Piper. I used the hand dyed yarn that we made back before I eas pregrant. It's quite big, so I will need to work the preemie pattern to get one that will fit her when she is a newborn. A soaker is a knit wool cover that goes over a cloth diaper- wool soaks up a large amount of moisture which is why so many people like "soakers" over the cloth diapers.
I learned a few new techniques with this one- kitchener stich for the seamless connection between the flaps on the bottom, and also short rows. I'm working on another one right now, with another batch of hand dyed yarn and some Cascade 220.

Marcel made the chocolate cake- from scratch (with some help from Mom). We frosted tt with ganache frosting and then decorated with buttercream...
The lil dude on the cake is jigglypuff, a Pokemon character - it was Marcel's idea.
