further to nothingbutbreast's thread about pocket fitteds and ambertsc's reply to me 
So you recommend the darling diaper pocket fitted pattern? I was just looking at it again this morning. I'm hoping to draft my own pattern but thought it might be helpful to have a "commercial" one as well. I really want to do up a lot of PUL-outer pockets but will have some diapers that require covers too.
Also, about handknit longies. Reading old posts last night it was mentioned that 100% acrylic works just as well or better than wool for some people. I probably have more acrylic in my existing yarn stash than I do wool, or at least some wool/acrylic blends. I realize that longies from that might need to be washed much more often (though I'd probably wash my wool ones every other time too) but I'd be able to just toss them in the washer and dryer since acrylic won't shrink and a blend, if there's enough acrylic, won't shrink very much either. I tend to like a dense fabric so the longies wouldn't have an overly loose gauge. Anyone else here do acrylic knit soakers? Wool would be warmer (if I needed them for warmth - ie: pj bottoms) but I wouldn't have to handwash acrylic. I also live in a pretty small apartment and don't have any room to lay stuff out to dry where a certain 13-month-old won't get into it.
