states that once you complete your Cargo shorts and wait two agonizing days for them to dry, the first time your baby wears them he will poop. He will poop yellow runny breastfed poop and it will leak all over your shorts :frustrat:

I need wool stain removal tips please... or else I'll have to dye my shorts :?

:lol:

Sorry I can't help it :)

I already shared my tip via yim but I'll spill here too

get the soaker damp with cold water. Put wool wash on stain and using a soft toothbrush GENTLY scrub the stain out. You can sun it but be careful as the sun can bleach the wool.

I'm assuming natural colored wool here:

Apply lemon juice to the stained area, enough to soak in, so it gets all the fiber. Then put some salt on top. Don't rub, it will felt! Then put it in direct sunlight for a couple of hours. When the lemon juice dries, shake off the salt and wash normally.

Wahlah! No mustard stain!

Will try that. I soaked in cold with wool wash and the stain has faded but still looks a bit mustardy... I suppose I should wait for it to dry before doing the lemon juice deal?

nah - if it's only damp enough should still soak in. just press it in, it shouldn't felt w/ gentle pressure.
