Why am I averse to cotton

Postby flutterby » Thu Jan 22, 2009 11:18 pm

I keep realising more and more that I am totally averse to cotton terry nappies, boosters, inserts, etc, I have no reason to feel this way I just don't want to use it, it's cheaper than most fabrics, and would be a good topper for hemp surely, but I can't bring myself to use it! What's wrong with my brain??

I bought 2 new organic cotton tots, dyed them, used them maybe twice and then sold them, though to be honest the fit wasn't great! I have a cotton little lamb, it's one of my emegency nappies, and it's soo perdy now I've dyed it, but I still don't use it!

No, I sold them to Allie for Trevor!

The one you bought I bought preloved from Rachel (Rhead) and again dyed them and used them once or twice!

It's just a bit boring, isn't it?

I don't have any day-time cotton nappies, just a couple of Bumbles that I use as night nappies which are fine cos they're so 'stuffable'. I got them in a bundle of other nappies I bought for a total bargain on ebay - sold on the Totsbots Cottons in that bundle immediately - just didn't fancy them at all, and effectively got the Bumbles for free.

BTW - have I missed something - what's 'perdy'???
