Hand-dyed Organic Wool Diaper Cover - Light Lime - medium (9-22 lbs.)

These covers do an excellent job at keeping liquids in. I prefer the velcro to the snap they are faster to use.I only have rated this 4 stars because it is thick and heavy, probably better for nights to trap fluid. Overall I prefer the wool jersey cover to this one as it is lighter and less bulky than these organic ones.Using wool covers overall is a bit more work as you have to soak them in lanolin before use, and resoak them every month or so, but the lanolin does make them waterproof and I have found them very effective. You don't have to wash them every day, just air them to dry if they get wet. They only need washing only if they get poop on them. They also breathe and my son doesn't get sweaty, great for summer!

Not only are they soft, natural, breathable, and ridiculously adorable… but they WORK!!! I lanolinize them much more HEAVILY than the company recommends (with 1/4 tsp NOW liquid lanolin) every week or so, right after I wash them, because I love the softness it gives the wool AND the natural moisturizing properties for my son's skin and my own hands. Lanolinizing isn't really that hard, either: hot water +lanolin +soap and shake. Mix into the damp (just washed) covers and warm water. Soak 30 minutes or overnight. Whatever. Totally no big deal. And it's nice on dry hands, too! I started lanolinizing my wool sweaters and my son's wool blanket, too. It's heavenly.I just cannot BELIEVE how easy (and cheap) it is to diaper this way! I only have 12 ozocozy pre folds, which I fold and place into these covers, 3 wool covers, and 3 g diaper covers, which I also use with pre folds, when I need him to be sitting for a potentially longer period and 100% waterproof. I drop the dirty pre folds into a bucket of vinegar water and power wash them in my front loading machine every day, so there's never any smell whatsoever. I don't even rinse the poop off or anything. They smell brand spanking new, and my son's butt looks well-aired and pristine.If only clothing myself could be so soft and easy.To be fair, though, I bought another wool cover from these guys, the soaker pull up brief, and it was terrible. Very scratchy, and my son's butt always felt damp 10 minutes after I put it on him. He didn't soak through it, mind you, but I just don't like the idea of feeling pee (even if it's only water vapor) when I pick him up. Gross. It was only 1 layer of wool though, and these overs have 2 layers, so maybe that's the trade off for having a thinner cover.Don't be scared to try wool. I almost chickened out, but I'm SO glad I gave it a fair chance!

My daughter is a month old and 9lbs now and the 9-22lb size fits great on the tightest setting, still a little bulky but I cant wait til she gets bigger, these cloth diaper covers are so cute!I stopped using the PUL covers almost entirely because they weren't breathable and she would get a little red and rashy. No rash with my GMD prefolds and this wool cover!When she has a blowout and gets poo on the cover I spot clean with a bar soap from little spruce organics (very easy and lovely smells to choose from!).I was intimidated by the prepping process but honestly these are the only covers I use so I'm glad I took the (little) time to do it.I used euclan wool wash and lanolin to prep.I have two. The purple and light green are so cute. (I want mint!) When one gets damp I hang it and use the other. Takes 12 hours to dry when soaked fully and re lanolized. I roll them up in a towel and squeeze all excess water out first and that helps a lot..Great Great product, highly recommended.
