My 3rd soaker from the new Trim Soaker pattern at Warm Heart Woolies. From a Red Heart acrylic color called Bikini, size M, narrow crotch version with some added rows to make the leg openings bigger. Lots of 2x2 ribbing at waistband.

Cute and I like the colors too, so happy looking. It fits great.

nice job, I didn't know you could use acrylic, neat idea.

I love how colorful it is! Great job!

pretty! I didn't know you could use acrylic for soakers either but now that I think about it acrylic isn't exactly absorbant, is it? Love the colors!

Great job, and the model is a cutie too!

Acrylic might not work for everyone but we've never had a leak. I love the colors and you can't beat the price.

I made this soaker as well as a LTK Ribby Wrap from this one skein (less than $3!) and still have a little bit left. They work really well for playing outside, so I don't worry about her wool things getting ruined.

That's a great idea! When ds was in diapers I had a few wool covers that I was worried about having him wear outside for fear of him sitting in the mud or getting sand all in it, lol. If I ever have another one in diapers, I'll keep that in mind.
