Kissa's Wool LOVER Diaper Cover
Breathable, Sustainable and Super-soft.
Made with super-soft, minimally processed Australian wool,
the Wool Lovers are a perfect, natural and breathable alternative to
PUL covers. Sourced from the belly of the sheep (not the top coat which
yields stiffer yarn), our wool has extremely fine fiber which helps the
cover repel moisture a lot better and reduces the need to lanolize.
- Ultra-fine merino wool with a Cashmere feel
- Super gentle and comfortable elastic around the legs aids
containment
- No bleaching, anti-piling or silicon coating treatments on
the wool
- Minimum seams for a comfortable fit
Note: We use super wash wool fibers that
have less scale which lets the covers to maintain their softness over
long term use and not become stiff like most other wool covers. Also,
the water resistance feature of the covers keeps improving as their
become a bit ''fuzzy' with use.

Why Wool Covers?
Wool is natural fiber and is breathable. It lets
the air circulate which can reduce diaper rash and keep babies cooler.
Wool also is naturally anti-bacterial and has a built in ability to hold
water.
Wash/Care
Caring for wool is really easy. It doesn’t retain odor and the
covers can be used for 2-3 weeks between washes, unless soiled. Simply
air-dry by turning inside out in between uses.
Lanolize before first use.
Washing/drying: Simply soak the cover in cold water for 15
minutes with wool wash detergent. Do not scrub or
agitate. Lay flat to dry (after rolling in a towel and gently squeezing
to remove excess water). For stain removal, lay flat in the sun.
How to lanolize:
Watch a video about how to wash and lanolize a wool diaper cover!
Prepare your
sink just like you are about to wash your cover.
Take a pea sized amount on lanolin and place in a baby food
jar along with a drop of baby shampoo or wool wash. Fill jar with super hot water and
shake to dissolve the lanolin (or an alternative to completely melt
your lanolin is place the jar lanolin without the lid in the microwave
for 10-15 seconds. Then add the hot water & shampoo. (This will
ensure the lanolin is completely dispersed).
Make sure that the lanolin is liquified and will not form pool and
form spots on my covers. Fill your sink as I stated just above with
warm water and wool wash. Add your lanolin mixture and swish. I prefer
to turn my covers inside out so the majority of the lanolin is on the
inside right where you need it. Add the wool cover and let sit for 15 minutes. Make sure water remains relatively warm to keep the
lanolin suspended properly and from forming lanolin spots. Drain and dry
like normal.
Storage
Before storing away, wash the cover thoroughly without lanolizing.
Do not fold and put between clothes. Hang it or spread it on the top of
other clothes. If WL is pressed for a long time, it may get a bit
stiffer like other finer wools.
