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!
