I too have managed to resist the "pull of wool" but with summer approaching and the fact that we are moving to NC where it will be HOT, I'm thinking of trying some wool for DS.
I am unsure of how to measure him for soaker shorts, etc. for example. Are the measurements provided the size of the actual soaker or the size he should be to fit in it? For example, many have an 18 inch waist and DS seems to have about an 18 inch waist exactly. Would a soaker this size fit...does it have give or would he be at the end range of use for that size? I'd SOOO love to try some little soaker shorts on him but I don't know what I'm supposed to be measuring ;)
Do I measure him OVER a dipe? We are mostly pocket users, and I have one sugarpeas hemp fitted that we like. We have lots of CPFs but I haven't used many lately. Are soakers okay over a CPF? DS doesn't poop that often these days so it isn't as big of a deal I guess. Should I buy more fitteds if I go with wool?
And...am I right in thinking you can reuse the wool soakers a few times over the course of a day once they are dry? How much is Euclan? We've been CDing for almost 14 months now and somehow I'm just wool illiterate I guess ;)
TIA!
