When choosing a diaper cover, it is important to look for one that absorbs moisture and lets the skin breathe to avoid diaper rashes. Most people have the misconception that using a wool cover will be too hot for their child. Quite the opposite is true. Wool keeps you warm in the winter and cool in the summer. Wool has the ability to absorb up to 30% of moisture, repel water and breathe. When a diaper cover is placed on top of a diaper, it is so important for the skin to be able to breathe and not have the temperature rise which can lead to a diaper rash. Wool has overlapping scales called cuticles as well as a thin coating of Lanolin. Their combination together causes water to run off the fibers. This natural water repulsion makes wool a good reason to use as a diaper cover.

Steph's tip: I only used wool diaper covers for my baby and loved how they performed. Every morning after my daughter woke up, i would change her diaper and take the wool diaper cover to air out outside for a few hours. Whatever smell of urine there was, it did not stay on the diaper cover. Twice a month I would wash it with a wool wash, just to make sure that the Lanolin was put back into it. There simply is no other type of diaper cover I would use. Their low maintenance and performance make wool a great diaper cover.
