Alright, I have a Newborn size, PINK wool soaker to giveaway. This soaker has been felted, so it is 100% bulletproof! We all know wool, we love it, nows the time to get some for free. I recently felted one of my soakers that was a little on the big side and not working so well for us, and I really liked the way it turned out. soooo, I decided to make another one to giveaway for this blog.
A bit about wool and wool care
Wool care is easy. And the benefits of wool are unmatched by any other diaper cover alternative. Wool covers are fantastic with their breathability, antibacterial properties and natural ability to hold liquid. Indeed, they are self-cleaning (as the the urine reacts with the lanolin to form a soap) for a week or two at which point they simply need to be gently hand washed and/or re-lanolized.
Hand wash your wool covers in lukewarm water using a wool safe wash and little agitation. If the wash contains lanolin, let soak for 15 minutes. Lay flat to dry (after rolling in a towel and gently squeezing to remove excess water) Olive oil soap can be used for a simple spot cleaning wash.
It is also nice to use a concentrated lanolin every month or so to provide a fuller lanolization. Simply dissolve the desired amount of lanolin (usually 1 tablespoon) in lukewarm water. And follow the same directions as above.
This is a great opportunity to add some cutemess to your NB stash. To enter this giveaway just leave a comment about why you love wool (also include your email ).

I love wool because it is warm in winter, not-to-warm in summer, it is natural, breathable and snuggly/kuddly! AND- I like sheep! Just knitted a little merino sheep/ram out of merino wool (Peacefleece) with a wool stuffing for a little guy- sooo cute (sheep and boy- unfortunately no pic available)!
