The Hunt for Wool

While I’ve loved cloth diapers from the start, it’s taken me a little while to come around to wool. I admit it, I was intimidated, but I’ve been dying to try some wool ever since I found Ewe Wool Love It on Facebook. Of course, I went a little crazy buying cloth diapers this week and since we’re actually trying to SAVE $$$ by using cloth, I decided I would get some wool sweaters and make my own. Yeah…good luck with that!

I already get enough crazy looks when people find out we use cloth diapers. Add that to looking for wool during a hot, muggy Nebraska summer and now I’m the crazy cloth lady! I did leave my name and number at the thrift store and they’re supposed to set aside any wool sweaters that come in. Now I just need to wait patiently. For those of you that make woolies out of sweaters, do you just stock up during the winter season?? If I don’t find some wool soon, I suppose I’ll just have to break down and buy an already made wool cover. That’ll just break my heart! *grin*
