Individual creations for cloth-bottomed babies...

My friend Sarah showed me her latest project, knitted trousers, known as 'longies,' with drawstrings, for use as night-time wraps with cloth nappies. We brainstormed for a while over a name for her new product, and I came up with 'BabyLongLegs' and it stuck! Then I said 'You know, if they were elasticated they'd be great for people following Natural Infant Hygiene (NIH), more 'pull-down-able.' She said 'OK' and made a pair for me to try out. They work a treat!! And so, our elasticated waisted version is exclusive to Fanny Fanackapants.

All BabyLongLegs are made from 100% wool. These Longies are knitted in aran wool hand-dyed by Sarah using food-grade dyes. Wool makes an ideal material for cloth nappy covers as it is breathable and when treated with a lanolin wool-cure it becomes anti-bacterial, so they don't have to be washed with every use. Care instructions are included.

A note about sizing: BabyLongLegs are designed to fit over a night-time cloth nappy, which tend to be thick! For regular daytime use or for NIH you may need to measure your child while wearing the nappy or pants you intend to use and order the appropriate size on that basis.
