Puppi Merino Wool Cover OS

Sterling & Me is one of the few USA retailers for Puppi Wool Covers from Poland! OS diapers can be adjusted with the rise snaps to grow with your baby. This way you can use this cover for much longer than sized diapers! Puppi OS covers fit children approx 13-33 lbs. Puppi diapers are not only a healthy alternative for your child’s skin, but also care for the environment. All fabrics we use are biodegradable. All Puppi diaper colors are limited edition! Puppi one-size diaper covers are made of two layers of extremely soft and thin wool. Beautiful and elegant diapers with colorful snaps and decorative stitching. The leg elastics are soft yet very stretchy, which allows for a trim fit on virtually every child that is gentle around the legs. Once lanolised, these covers hold moisture very effectively. Wool is an extremely versatile fabric for cloth diapering-- it is breathable, temperature regulating (perfect for both cold and hot days), soft, and naturally antibacterial. Lanolin breaks down urine, so it does not need to be washed as often as diapers made with PUL. Simply hang to dry between uses. However, wool needs to be hand washed with wool detergent and re-lanolising on wash day. These covers can be used with any insert, prefold diaper or low rise fitted diaper! These covers may look small at first, but fully stretched they are the same size as regular OS diapers. They are fairly narrow, so those who require many layers for night time may find that the One-Size Plus (OS+) is a better option that offers more width for night time diapers. Most babies will only need about 4 or 5 diaper covers. - 100% merino wool - Wool produced and sewn in Poland - biodegradable, certified elastics made of organic cotton and natural rubber - Our wool is proved to be mulesing free - Handmade - Fits 13-33 lbs - Requires lanolin The Puppi brand takes special care to ensure that its products are environmentally friendly, which is why these diapers are the only ones on the market with 100% biodegradable elastics, for which not even 1% polyester is used.

Certificates elastics: GOTS (Global Organic Textile Srtandard), snaps: CPSIA, tested for phthalate content   Wool tips from PUPPI diapers: At first the idea of treating and washing wool a certain way might be frightening, however both washing wool and doing a lanolin treatment is very simple and doesn’t require special skills.     - If the wool cover is just a little bit damp, the only thing you need to do is to hang it to dry.     - If the cover is very wet, you need to rinse it in clean water, gently squeeze out (do not wring out) and hang it to dry.     - If the cover is soiled you need to wash it in lukewarm water with one tablespoon of wool detergent, rinse it in clean water, gently squeeze (not wring) out and hang it to dry. Easy! These are the simple steps for everyday wool covers care. However, from time to time they will need some special washing and lanolising. Depending on the intensity of use after some time (2-3 months) wool cover will not “hold” the moisture so well. That means that the lanolin has rinsed out of its fibers that makes the wool keep its special advantages (no leaks and antibacterial properties) and you will need to make a lanolin treatment. After lanolin treatment, the cover might seem sticky. This is normal and will be gone after 1-2 uses of cover. Thanks to its chemical and physical properties, wool doesn’t need to be washed very often. If it doesn’t get soiled, it’s enough to wash it every second week. The structure of wool fibers makes them repel dirt and neutralize smells. Lanolin contained in the fibers doesn’t let bacteria grow. However, lanolin treatment from time to time is necessary.
