This cloth diaper soaker is re-purposed from a 100% merino wool sweater. Red colored body with black trim. Lightning applique hand drawn and designed by me from 100% lambswool. All appliques are securely machine stitched. This is a very soft, medium weight soaker. After felting, it is quite dense (not flimsy), it reminds me of an interlock texture. .
Approximate measurements unstretched:
Waist: 17" (stretches to about 20")
Rise: 19" (with at least 2" stretch in rear rise)
Thigh: 10" (stretches to about 12")
Please measure over the diaper to ensure proper fit. Sizing on every wool soaker varies due to the nature of the materials.
This soaker will be lanolized prior to shipment, please allow a few extra days drying time. Hand wash in warm, using wool wash containing lanolin.
*All wool is pre-felted by doing two hot wash/dry cycles prior to sewing. Some shrinkage/felting may still occur if not properly washed. If you've never used wool covers before, and have questions, please convo me or see my FAQs in Policies: http://www.etsy.com/shop_policy.php?user_id=6486398
______________________
Wool is an incredible choice for a cloth diaper cover. It can hold wetness up to 30% of its dry weight, while still remaining dry to the touch. It contains natural lanolin, which acts as a moisture repellent and has anti-bacterial properties (which is why you want to wash it with a wash containing lanolin). It is also completely breathable, helping keep baby’s skin healthy while not getting too warm.
