Addicted to Fluff: Absolute Delights ; Dryer balls, cocoons, hats, knitted play food and more!.

I recently Participated in a coop for Absolute Delight which is a WAHM Facebook/Hyena Cart shop.
She makes really nice stuff like Cocoons , Hats, Never unroll Dryer Balls, and Play food. Since Winter was coming I decided to order a Cocoon and matching hat set to help keep my dear son warm.
Wait, wait, wait.... Whats a cocoon you ask? Well its just the most awesome thing made for babies since the boob. Basically Its a wool, or cotton blend knit Tube (some closed bottom some tie bottom), that you tuck baby in and its like a womb/swaddle blanket. She can make them for preemie babies (which we all know are impossible to find things for) and Larger babies like mine. Keeps them all snuggle tight, safe to sleep in, and of so very very VERY soft!

Okay, so now that we are all caught up on what a cocoon is lets move on =). So I ordered mine in Cotton/synthetic blend, and a beautiful blue. It took me FOREVER to decide on the color because she has so many awesome colors to choose from. The size was the hardest part for me to figure out because my son is growing super fast and I didnt want to buy this and have to get rid of it a week later lol. So I ordered a size bigger then I thought I should get. Super excited I wait and wait. Check the mail every day. Since she makes them by hand and a ton of ladies ordered in the same coop it took a little while longer then usual to get my order (not counting the USPS issues Not to be blamed on Deb {owner of Absolute Delights}) When my cocoon and hat Finally Arrived I jumped with glee.. Which landed me firmly on my butt since I was standing on Black Ice in the middle of the road.
I had to rush in and snatch my baby away from his uncle who was playing with him to try it out !

It Worked Great! My Dear son enjoyed being snug and warm, as well as a nice chew on the soft (oh so soft) yarn. Time for the hat! It looks great! Dear son is Enjoying his cocoon and actually keeping his hat on hehe.

So not only is it Uber soft But Baby Loves it too! yay!
Dear son loves to fall asleep in it too. Though while asleep he does tend to wiggle out, But im sure its how much my son kicks and wiggles in his sleep. And actually as I was writing up this review Dear son Woke up, reached for his cocoon, and tried putting it over his feet. (only 6.5months)

So these are a great replacement to swaddle blankets! A definite Conversation starter.
Prices Very By Size and Yarn type so be sure to head over to Deb's shop and ask her about these awesome cocoons!

Wait. She sells other things to! Did I buy any other items you ask? Why yes, Yes I did!

I ordered a set (2) of her small Never unroll Dryer balls!

Ok so your new to Cloth Diapers and dont know what dryer balls are either?? Thats Okay! Thats what I'm here for!! And to be honest I didnt know what Dryer Balls were either until this coop came around.
Dryer balls are (usually made out of) Wool balls (scented or not) that you place in your dryer with your Diaper laundry and they do a couple of things.

Since you cant use fabric softener , They kinda beat the cloth softer
Help save energy by helping the load to dry faster
If scented will release the scent just like a fabric sheet and help add a little smell good to your fluff.

Well Since the recommended amount of balls for help in the drying and softening department is 4-6 balls and I only have 2 Smalls, I dont have a very good idea on how well they work, But I can tell a slight difference in my Bamboo Diapers softness. BUT I can tell you Deb's balls Smell AhMazing! She has so many different Essential oil scents I picked "Lick me all over" AkA: LMAO its so nice and my diapers smell great after a dry!
Deb's Balls are not like other's balls though. She does the normal Wool ball wrapped around itself But then she goes a few steps further. They are made with a knitted cover to help them from unrolling. These dryer balls are first rolled into balls with 100 percent wool yarn. Then are rolled with wool yarn and felted. The wool in the balls make them shrink as they felt; making a denser dryer ball. Next I knit up a cover, sew it on, and shrink the covers over the balls. I measure each ball prior to felting. The finished balls will be approximately an inch smaller then they are to start with. Making them not only Extremely functional but also look really cool.
