One of my YouTube viewers would rather follow a written pattern, so I decided to take a little bit of time from my busy schedule and do it for all the knitters that would like to see it written as well.
If you do not mind following videos - HERE is the link to my YouTube Channel with many different videos. If you prefer patterns, feel free to browse through my blog.
Here are the DIAPER COVER video links for LEFTIES, and video for RIGHTIES.
And CLICK HERE for another diaper cover "Holy Guacamole" knitted with thick cotton yarn.
Enjoy.

PLEASE, COMMENT ON YOUTUBE BELOW MY VIDEOS, AND/OR SHARE YOUR IMAGES OF YOUR RECREATED WORKS ON MY FB PAGE HERE :-)
Note: Most of the time I work as fast as I can to keep up with knitting and crocheting requests. I have to videotape, edit videos, then convert them & upload them to my channel. After that often I post on my blog patterns. I answer many questions, which means that often I work up to 16 hours a day. I would tremendously appreciate IF anyone of you who finds an error in the written pattern, so please, let me know - where (what rows) and what may be the problem. Many future knitters & crocheters from our artsy and crafty virtual world will thank you for your good deed, including myself.
