Wool Soakers & Longies

Wool Soakers are usually pull on style diaper covers that are hand knit. Wool Shorties and Wool Longies refer to diaper covers that are similar to hand knit wool soakers, but they are longer - shorts length for shorties, long pants for longies. Soakers, shorties, or Longies can all be worn as both clothing and a diaper cover in one. That is why so many people love the cute designs of Kozy Designs Wool. It's a diaper cover you can show off as clothing as well.

Wool diaper covers like the Stacinator Stretch Wool cover are made of merino wool fabric, so the fabric is thinner and more tightly knit than a hand knit wool soaker, like the Aristocrat. The Bumpy Wool Cover is made from felted wool, so it is a very dense weave and the thinnest wool cover we carry. It closes with velcro, so it can be used over a trifolded prefold diaper, whereas the other types of wool covers are better used over a fitted diaper or pinned or Snappied prefold diaper.
