Thank you so much for the great video! My friend knit me a bunch of wool diaper covers and I'm so excited to use them. This is my first baby and my husband was horrified at most diaper covers being polyester... He has a personal vendetta against that synthetic fiber, lol. I didn't know what to tell him because I didn't know there was another option, but my sister told me about wool, so we are going to try it! We'll see how it goes, I'm due next week!
Oh congratulations!!!!!! Wool is AMAZING! Here is a video on my daughters channel (she shamelessly promotes me there) that you might find helpful! I’m pretty passionate bout cloth diapering as is my daughter! ruclips.net/video/Hh62A3B4-9k/видео.html
Just air dry when they get pee on them, they don’t need to be washed every time. You only need to wash them either when they get poop on them, or once they start to smell like urine. Typically this is going to be anywhere from a week to even a month. Depending on how many in your rotation.
@@Rebecca.Robbins thank you, I only have three covers that fit my little and two that’s larger for her to grow into and another stretches out while wearing and won’t stay up so she doesn’t wear it, I don’t know what’s going on with that. I just ordered some lanolin because now the covers are leaky. I was afraid I messed these up.
Wool shouldn’t smell, but the yuk coming out of a diaper cover certainly can smell! You can use hot water, but be SUPER GENTLE with the fabric when it’s hot and wet. There are different kinds of wool too, some will react differently.
That crazy music really helps me understand what you are saying
Sorry. 😞
Wool seems so much less intimidating now! Thanks, love it.
Awesome! Happy to hear it!

@@Rebecca.Robbins Thank you!
I just lanolized my daughters first wool covers for the first time! Thank you for keeping it simple! I’m excited to use them on her once they dry 😍
Yay!!! You are going to LOVE THEM!!!
How much soap is mixed in with the lanolin? Thank you!
Just a little. It really only takes a couple drops. You will know that you have enough when the water mixed with the lanolin turns white.
How often should you wash wool covers?

Is the water warm when lanolizing ? I thought the water wasn’t supposed to be warm or cool.
I use hot water to melt the lanolin, then mix with room temp water.
What happens if I used hot water? 😭 is wool supposed to smell when I wash it? 😭
