Where do hippies buy their baby clothes?

[RighteousDude]

I saw a little boy with The Coolest striped leggings on. They looked sort of knitted (no doubt out of yoghurt or lentils)

They were in shades of orange and green

I've searched etsy, folksy and lots of websites but nada

Do I need to go on a pilgrimage to Glastonbury? (only half joking, it's not that far away :)

If you look on ebay - search baby leggings. They do heaps of different ones and they are very cheap. here are some. They wash well, tumble dry and last ages!

Green baby?
Little green radical?

Can't link as on phone but look on eBay for toddler leggings, were they those ones with pictures on the bum?

Blueberryboy got there first!

Bishopstone trading in Bristol. That's where my mum buys stuff for my DS and she is 100% certified hippy.

Babylegs? They are not leggings though, they are woolly legwarmers so easier for nappy changes.

Are you real hippies?

They weren't like those animal bum ones, they were sorta more organic looking

Perhaps a trip to Bristol then, is that shop on park street?

But thanks

Theyre on eBay, try heaps of searches eg hippy pants etc. I'm in aust.

There are lots of striped leggings on eBay

But these were kind of woolier looking. A bit handmade

maybe they are handmade then, can't be too hard? (optimistic)

There are loads of patterns for knitting leggings (called longies). You can buy them too. Can't link but google 'wool longies' & you will find patterns/some for sale (handknitted). It's a cloth nappy thing.

Longies are the very thing!

Thank you so much :)

They may have been longer soakers. Look on folksy and notonthehighstreet. Or make your own/ get a mate to/ ask your mum

I wrote longie but it doesn't matter I types too slow anyway

Wow they're expensive

I thought hippies were poor. Perhaps they really do weave lentils to get their babies snazzy leggings

I can't knit

My mother can't knit

I doubt any of my mates can knit

Have a l

Oops.

Have a look for second hand - clothnappytree has them.

go to festivals and buy if you must but real hippies tie die their own
Start with second hand stuff then die it

What age is it for? I might have some old ones of DS' if you mean this sort of thing

Yes nappyaddict, that's Very like the thing. Especially the £38 ones show me a page of 1000 things and I'll pick the most expensive

I'd be very interested if you've some in around about 10 months onwards. She is 10 months but is The Biggest Baby Ever and is mostly in 12 month clothes

Would you pm me of you did, I'll pay good money (but not £38) Or indeed in true hippy fashion home grown vegetables and eggs

(v excited at thought of pm never mind genuine, properly hippily revycled legging things )

Sorry mine are much bigger than that (age 3/4ish)

Frugi.

How about these, fleece rather than wool but very reasonable prices - MamaMoomy

Hi I found a baby outfit which looks like a biker outfit but is flexible and soft and a rock punk style outfit from www.blessingindisguiseclothing.co.uk so I would suggest looking there as they might have something hippie style or contact them they are helpful.

I know a few hippy type people who genuinely do make them, and they tend to have likeminded friends so there are always crafty clothes being swapped around as children grow into or out of things.

Oh oh I can't believe I am the first one to say susu mama
