Wool diaper covers are soft, breathable and so luxurious for your little one's skin. Wool is an amazing, renewable resource. Wool helps keep your baby cool in summer and warm in winter. Since wool can hold up to 30% of its own weight in moisture before it feels damp, wool diaper covers help keep your baby feeling dry longer. Paired with quality fitted diapers or prefold cloth diapers, wool is a great option for babies with sensitive skin or for overnights. If you choose wool longies for winter, you can skip the diaper cover and just these fabulous wool pants instead. Wool shorties or wool soakers are perfect for summer time - pair them with a t-shirt for a cool and cute combo.

Wool does require special care, but it is simple. Wool does not need to be washed every time it is used. You can air dry them and reuse for up to 2-3 weeks unless they are soiled. Most wool covers need to be handwashed but some can be machine-washed on the gentle cycle. Once they are clean, lanolize them with some lanolin (a natural product derived from wool). The lanolin will interact with the ammonia from urine to keep your wool diaper covers smelling fresh between washes and it helps to make them more water resistant. Best of all, sheep need to have their wool clipped each spring and it does not hurt them so you can feel good about using natural, biodegradable wool diaper covers.
