I have a bunch of lamb's pride and the new look-a-like Berkshire from Valley Yarns(webs). I just finished and lanolized my first longies (perfection pants) and I am thinking I should use up what I have.... but any thoughts on this yarn for this application?

I will post a pic of the longies as soon as I download it, I really like them.

I made a soaker from Lamb's Pride yarn and was not too happy with it. It gave off too much fuzz. Every time I changed the diaper I had to wipe countless times to get all the tiny dark red fibers off my baby. Other than the fuzz it worked grate though, no pilling or anything (maybe because it was always the last cover to be used:rolleyes:

which lambs pride is it, the worsted weight?

I have a bunch of both the worsted and the bulky. I love it for my new slipper pattern, and when it is tdone felting I just shave it. But, I am a bit worried that it will be too fuzzy and not shavable .... ok and it sounds weird to shave my babies butt cover.

i have lamb's pride soakers and longies they work fine in both worsted and bulky. they are not any fuzzier than any other soft yarn. soft yarn is just fuzzy lol. in fact i think it holds up a bit better looking than some other wools.

and go ahead and shave your baby's butt covers but i hear these (http://www.denverfabrics.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Product_Code=FH0106&Category_Code=FH&Product_Count=22) work better and are cheaper :)
