and already looking for longies for winter?

I'm using soakers way more often than shorts, if I use a cover at all. And Luke kicks the covers off of us in the night, so he's wearing longies to bed so he doesn't freeze from the fans we've got going!

So..where are some nice longies, wool pants for sale?!

I am shopping myself for wool pants. I have ordered a custom pair from Ky Baby Knits, custom from cranky pants and bought a pair off the TP. and still searching for more.
I imagine we won't start seeing them until around August.
I've been looking and they are hard to find/used right now.

BJM's are always on ebay.

I've been hesitant to try BJM because of mixed reviews, but I read recently they are using a different kind of wool, so I'm thinkin' about it!

SCC is open for custom dyed wool pants with or without embroidery for two more days.


I have never been into shorts. Soakers are so much more versatile, you can use them as just a diaper cover underneath a rugged pair of jeans or pants for the sandbox/muddy park/playground thing, and then at home on their own (or anywhere else that isn't so rough&tumble), and we don't have many weeks of the year where it's too hot to wear pants.
I love longies.

I have one pair of BJM's...got them in a trade and didn't know who made them, then saw them on ebay. They are butter soft. They don't fit Zach, but I am waiting to see an auction w/measurements that'll fit him. I'll pick up a pair to try them out for $20-$30. You betcha! I know they'll do customs, but I'm not *that* worried about trying them out, kwim?
Well, I'm not exactly looking for longies
: but I am done with shorts. I've been going hog wild on wool lately, now it's time for a breather.

It's so hot here that I use shorts about 80% of the year so I have lots. I barely used longies last year soI only plan to get 1 pair for this winter but not until late summer.
I am bored and on bedrest so I'll just go ahead and throw my own little party over next fall/winter's woolies that I have already starte planning many many weeks ago....

I'm already thinking of long pants too. I'm mostly a soaker type gal in the summer as it turns out :LOL Summer isn't even remotely here yet and I'm already planning past it to the crisp months that follow

Too bad Vanessa doesn't have more kids in diapers (now that I think Mia has potty trained) or you could get more longies like the ones you have&love and trade her for diapers!

I actually put Autumn in both pairs of her longies yesterday. It's been a bit on the chillier side here in Colorado.

I am doing a custom slot with Marnie of TCT for the fall already. Longies, cardigan, hat and matching mocs! Oh I can't wait!

I'm dying for more mamas to start knitting longies and selling them already. (HINT HINT!!! Gee I'm subtle aren't I???? :LOL )
I know many knitting WAHMs are getting requests for pants. I myself still have a couple pair that will fit ds next winter but I'm not too sure we'll need them if he PLs...

I'm pretty much done buying pants. I have one more custom pair on the way, so I'll have 9, I think. Unless of course I find something I just have to have.

Well, I am currently knitting up some more shorts for the fall. It is too hot for them in July and August here. I have about 8 pairs of longies from last winter that I got big so they will fit Kai, and then I will just knit her some more. I will *not* be buying any longies this winter!! (ok, I may have to get one pair of Tiny Birds in a larger size, and if I could get one more BBB pants that would also rock! :LOL)

My knitting has been put on hold for a little bit...but I plan on knitting some up for Luke as well!

And I'm going to remember your words when I find out you scored some other awesome longies (mm, SITA..or something) this fall! :LOL
