Good, answered my questions promptly

The pattern is really nice. I would like to make some more soakers with it and get over the learning curve. The crotch is especially nice and makes for a bulletproof cover.

This was my very first h/c purchase and Sara was unbelivable to work with. I was torn on what i wanted - a pug or motorycle and she combined them. She sent many sketches and was just wonderful to chat with.
Product review:
I love these shorts and they will be treasured always.
When and where purchased: October, off her cart. Order 1023
Specific item:
Sarah's soaker crochet pattern and the ribbed soaker crochet pattern.
Customer service:
Great! I couldn't decide which pattern(s) to get and sent Shana an e-mail and she helped me narrow down my choices.
Product review:
The ribbed soaker seems small when made as per the directions, but it could be my technique. It's very easy to adjust the size of it, though.
When and where purchased: October 26, 2007-New Life Woolens HC Order #408
Specific item: Small/Medium Acrylic Crocheted Soaker
Customer service: Never got any emails other than the automated response after my purchase, but very prompt shipping, lovely note included thanking me for my purchase.
Product review: Excellent! Well made, very durable looking. I haven't actually used it yet but my DD did wear it long enough to be tried on and ohh'd and ahh'd over lol. The fit is great. I was really nervous it would be too little for my DD once I ordered, but it is a nice trim snug (not tight) fit. It was very nice to find stuff like this made out of pure acrylic for someone like me who has severe allergies to wool. Thanks!

The instructions are very easy to understand and though I am not finished, it is working up to be a really nice, sturdy but stretchy bag. The solid bottom is a great feature. I will probably be making a lot of these!

Specific item:
Medium, recycled wool night time soaker
Customer service:
Great customer service! I needed this quickly and Shana got it out to me right away. She always answered emails very promptly and was very friendly. I would definitely do business with her again.
Product review:
This is a very well made soaker. It fits my son very well -- the rise is a bit short for him, but that is my fault for not ordering bigger. It is trim and seems comfortable. It does a great job at night and during naps -- my son always wakes up dry. I am very pleased with my purchase.

Medium Thick Bright Colored Soaker
Customer service:
Polite and timely e-mails, very prompt shipping
Product review:
This soaker was made from a wool sweater, and fit beautifully on my chubby little guy! There was plenty of room for even his thickest diapers, but the fit wasn't huge. Even though the wool was nice and heavy, the soaker fit snugly and with plenty of stretch. The encased drawstring waist was a very nice feature - I didn't have to worry about stretching out the ribbing putting it on over a bulky diaper. I have excellent luck with recycled soakers, and this one did not let me down

Large crocheted wool soaker By Sarah ON SALE
Customer service:
Excellent communication - timely e-mails, prompt shipping
Product review:
Sarah crocheted this soaker from a gorgeous colorway of Noro wool - it's one of our favorite soakers! The crochet really does make a difference - I find I get less compression wicking with the crochet soaker than I do with my knitted ones.
The fit is lovely on my tall-and-chunky little guy - just enough room in the seat, legholes are snug but not too tight, and the drawstring is perfectly placed and with enough stretch to be comfortable for my little guy.

Specific item:
med/Large Recycled soaker with flower Applique
Customer service:
Fine, shipped quickly.
Product review:
Very cute soaker but wool is very thin so unfortunately it can only be worn a short while before needing to be aired out, or must be worn with a wool doubler to catch any moisture. Construction and design are good, though.
