Diaper Swappers

sb262 · 01-23-2012, 09:19 AM

I have a gorgeous stash of girlie wool yarn, but my LO is no longer in diapers (hasn't been for over a year). Since I'm no longer in need of shorties/longies, what else can I make with my 4oz and 8oz hanks of yarn and trim? I've been out of the DS loop for awhile, so I'm hoping some new wonderful patterns and ideas are out there now. Thanks!

Sweaters, dresses, shrugs, cowls, mittens/fingerless gloves, and hats for sure. I am in the same boat, but I have still made skirts for my girls since they love them so much.

Thanks for the links and ideas ladies! Those little shrugs are adorable, and I know my 4yo would love a skirt this spring. I'm assuming I could get one out of 8 oz of yarn.

I ended up starting on a cute little scarf for my 8 yo that I found on Spud and Chloe. I'm using Little Trunks "Princess". It looks really cute!
