Q: "How does wool really work anyway? Isn't it itchy & hot?"

                
                

The Perfect Diaper Cover
 
Wool is impressive. It has this wondrous ability to hold nearly 40% of its weight in fluid without feeling wet & allows moisture to evaporate. Not only does wool allow air to circulate through its fibers, but its natural antibacterial properties make it a perfect fiber for diapering. In the past, common misconceptions that 'wool is "itchy" & therefore, uncomfortable' kept diapering mamas at bay. In fact, the "itchy" reputation is owed to the harsh chemicals used to treat the wool to destroy & remove burrs & vegetable matter without damaging the wool beyond use. The carbonizing process may cause allergic reaction. True, some people do have a wool allergy and many times due to fibers floating during fabrication, but  likely to a particular wool.
   
 For wool next to skin, Merino is very soft wool & in particular, many mamas' first choice.  What we do with wool, is to strip the wool if necessary & restore the lanolin which is the natural oil found in wool. Before marketing any wool, the final product is gently washed in a Eucalan bath [ & depended upon the intended use, felted ] thus producing a fine diapering product not only fit for use, but ideal in every sense. In fact, wool diaper covers may be used for up to seven days if not soiled.
