Very good, those look great. I bought a spibelt for mine, but have yet to use it. (Maybe if I'm able to be more active again.) I crocheted a simple cover for mine and just clip it onto my jeans with it's own clip so it isn't so obvious. I plan to do some more decorative ones at some stage.
 
Hi, I've actually done them for my 2 year old type 1 because I thought it would be nice for him to have a range of different characters. I've seen spibelts but haven't tried them for him yet. I think it's good to try different types like your crotchet type for discretion - good idea!
 
Def having the current and coolest characters makes wearing a pump so much better for a child. And a belt like you have made keeps the pump secured on an active child.

Oh he really is very active! I've been buying pouches since he was diagnosed but thought it would be easier to make my own as I want a few spares as some of the companies have a 4 week dispatch time! Not a great way to keep customers!
