Beth says...

"I fell in love with this yarn years ago and last winter I knitted myself a coatigan from the Aran weight which is the best thing in my wardrobe. This yarn is similar to merino in softness and temperature regulation, and would make a perfect wool soaker - shorties or longies!"

Want LESS laundry?

A wool cover over a flat or fitted nappy could be the answer.

Wool is treated with lanolin (natural sheep wax) which makes it water resistant and anti-microbial.

The best bit is you only need to hand-wash it ONCE A MONTH or if it gets poo on it.

Check out our lanolin for instructions and all the gorgeous, temperature regulating, natural wool nappy covers here.
