How do I measure

[MelZ]

If I was going to order a pair of longies, how would I go about measuring to get the correct sizing? (I have only really ordered sized longies before for Rhania and they were always large or extra large, but these are for Tia and she is a newborn)

And what if they always have a long list of customs and it might take a while before I would receive them?

How long would they fit for? By the time I get them winter will nearly be over... Maybe I should order some shorties instead...

I'd say you would need measurements of:
Rise over a nappy
waist
thigh
outside leg length
inside leg length

order with current size but ask they re-check size before they start knitting if it is going to be awhile before they start. If they end up taking too long you can probably ask them to make shorties at that point.

or beg someone on here who doesnt have a huge list to get finished to knit you a pair.

have you had a look to see if there are any instocks. Yarn Collective have some instocks.

I find it much easier to buy instocks, but a few of the ppl I usually use do mainly customs. which is good in a way because Im usually pretty particular about colours etc

So who can tell me who around here knits on request? (that is reasonably priced).

I know Aunty Sharon (Virgo Knits) does.
