If you have not seen our Washable Soaker (made of 3 layers flannel), you must really check this out. Priced at only Rm8/pc, many of our cloth customers find this soaker so useful on their heavy days. Tips collected from Mama Patch Cloth Pad Users:

• By adding a piece of this on top of the pad of your regular pad, it will last longer especially on outings so you do not have to change so often
• Instead of changing every fresh piece which could be costly, you can just remove your soaker and continue using the fresh one at the bottom.
• Get frustruated when you oozed out the jelly blood clot AGAIN just after a fresh change? With a soaker on top, you just have to simply remove this little soiled piece instead changing the whole pad.

These soakers can also be used as liners as long as you remember to hold it on when you go to the loo. However they are not recommended since it comes without a snap and it could easily slip into the toilet when you remove your undies.

Lusy Knit (Beige Ditte)

When I first set up Mama Patch website, I planned not to put any personal pictures on it. However something made me realise that a sling always look best and real only when it is worn on the wearer. Good that I share my pictures here with my boys by uploading them here in this blog instead of having it in the business site.

Personal description of Lusy Knit

Lusy knit comes in 3 colors, beige, red and dark purple. I received most enquiry for the beige as I think this color can easily match with any clothing, be it formal or informal. Beige Ditte is embellished with 3 crocheted flowers (2 on its tail and one on the baby’s back), this plain ring sling is really eye catching while Red Ditte and Purple Ditte has 3 flowers at its tail.

Fabric

Although Ditte is 100% cotton, it is a bit “linen” feel especially  when it is still new. Unlike soft fabric, this tough Ditte like this makes the baby feels lighter as the weight can distribute better on the shoulder.

Shoulder type

Due to its canvas like texture, embroidery is really difficult. To make the 26″ witdth sling open up wider, the shoulder type was folded using accordian fold, from left and right to the center.

Update (August) : Improved with soft padding on shoulder for extra comfy

Overall, I simply love the way it looks!
