Description 

Do you want an incredibly breathable, gentle and beautiful cover for your cloth nappies which are soft against babies skin leaving no sock marks even overnight? Then a wool wrap might be for you!

Handmade in Estonia with two layers of extra fine stretchy mulesing free merino wool.

Sizing is generous in our opinion 

Small 5-8kg / Medium 8-12 kg / Large 12Kg +

610gsm weight- Suitable for day time use and potentially also at night. For added protection you can add a felted wool booster between the nappy and the cover in the main wet zone to add leak protection.

Unlike PUL or fleece covers, these wonderful wool wraps don’t shed ANY microplastics in to our oceans (read more about this here) and once in regular use only need to be gently handwashed or in your washing machine on a wool cycle every 4-6 weeks (sometimes even longer) as long as they don’t come in to contact with poo.

Wool wraps are also brilliant for heavy wetting babies, babies in hot climates, with sensitive skin or eczema as it allows their skin to breathe. Wool is a wonderful textile; in the summer it keeps baby cool and, in the winter, helps keep them warm. It is an incredible natural fabric.

 How to use

Once your wool wrap is lanolised, simply pull up over your flat nappy fitted to baby and off you go. As long as the nappy is well boosted, and not completely sopping wet, then you should have no leaks.

Some people are put off wool due to the lanolising process, but if you know how to make a lasagne or make a frothy fancy coffee at home then we would suggest that you are equally capable of lanolising a beautiful wool cover! And we stock everything you need to do this in beautiful non sheepy smelling (lanolin comes from sheep wool) scents using the wool care products we stock.

When you get your wool wrap gently handwash it in tepid water using wool soap or baby bath/soap. What we mean by handwashing is: submerge in water, gently massage, leave it for a bit, turn inside out and repeat.

Then lanolise your wool twice before use, detailed descriptions on how to do this can be found here.

Dry and then put on baby, allow to air each day and then just hand wash every month or so! Your wool cover will need lanolising at each wash but you can use the lanolin maintenance spray between washes to help boost the lanolin and keep smelling divine!

Do not wring out, simply press, excess liquid out and lay flat to dry (do not hang from a line). More information and guidance here.
