-
Temperature regulation: Merino wool is an active fiber that reacts to changes in your baby's body temperature, keeping them warm when it's cold and cool when it's hot. This natural thermoregulation ensures optimal comfort for your little one.
-
Moisture-wicking: The wool's ability to absorb and release moisture means that it can wick away excess dampness from your baby's skin, keeping them dry and comfortable even during long periods of wear.
-
Odor resistance: Merino wool's natural antimicrobial properties help to reduce the buildup of bacteria and unpleasant odors, making our cloth diaper cover a more hygienic choice for your baby.
-
Softness and comfort: Merino wool is renowned for its fine fibers and smooth texture, which means that our cloth diaper cover is gentle on your baby's delicate skin and minimizes the risk of irritation or chafing.
-
Stretch and durability: The addition of Spandex enhances the natural elasticity of Merino wool, providing a better fit and increased length of wear time. The resilient blend of materials and interlock fabric structure make this diaper cover machine washable, ensuring easy care and lasting quality.
-
Reusability: One of the amazing properties of Merino wool is its ability to neutralize urine odor when exposed to air. If the cover is damp with urine, simply air dry it and use it again for the next diaper change. This added advantage makes our cloth diaper cover an economical and eco-friendly option for parents.
SIZING/FIT
Please note that fit and weight ranges depend on the build of your baby. Knowing the rise (measurement from between legs to belly button) might be a better indicator of the size you need since length of torso plays a large role in diaper fit.

Wool Interlock Wash Instructions
Washing Instructions:
- Remove any solid matter from the shorties before washing.
- Turn inside out to expose the inner layer.
- Set your washing machine to a gentle wool cycle with cool/warm water.
- Use a mild, wool-safe detergent, following the recommended amount on the detergent packaging. We highly recommend Unicorn Clean products!
- Add the shorties to the washing machine and run the cycle.
- Once the cycle is complete, gently squeeze out any excess water or use a very low spin cycle. Do not wring wool items, as this can damage the fibers and stretch.
- Lay the shorties flat on a clean, dry towel or drying rack to air dry. Avoid direct sunlight or heat sources, as these can cause the fabric to shrink.

Traditional Lanolizing Method
- Fill a basin or sink with lukewarm water.
- In a separate container, dissolve a pea-sized amount of pure lanolin in hot water. You can use a small whisk or fork to help mix the lanolin until it forms a milky liquid.
- Add a few drops of baby-safe wool wash to the dissolved lanolin and mix well.
- Pour the lanolin mixture into the basin or sink with lukewarm water and stir to combine.
- Submerge the item in the lanolin solution first, and soak for a few minutes. Gently squeeze and work the lanolin into the fibers of the wet zone.
- Allow the item to soak in the solution for at least no more than 5-10 minutes so the wool fibres do not get waterlogged.
- After soaking, gently squeeze out any excess water from the wool item. Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water, ensuring all the soap is removed from the cover while leaving behind the lanolin.
- Lay flat on a clean, dry towel or drying rack to air dry. Avoid direct sunlight or heat sources, as these can cause the fabric to shrink.
