Nappy cover – size 4

Description

Designed to be used over any absorbent flat or fitted nappy, day or night. Alpaca wool is naturally water resistant, because of this alpaca nappy covers do not require lanolin (although you can add it to increase the water resistance if you wish). They’re also faster drying than their merino counterparts.

Wool is thermoregulating meaning it’s warm in the winter but cool in the summer. Our super soft alpaca nappy covers will not leave any sock marks so you can be assured your baby is as comfortable as possible.

These covers must be handwashed only, but they only need washing every 2-4 weeks unless soiled. Full care instructions are here. Just leave them to air between uses. It sounds impossible but they really won’t smell and are naturally antibacterial.

Available in four sizes and a choice of natural, undyed, colours. See our size guide.

Each order will be sent with a hand-tied small bunch of organic lavender, also grown here at my home. Lavender is a natural moth-repellent to preserve your nappy when not in use. The bunches are tied using scrap fabric and yarn to make them as eco-friendly as possible.

Perfect for sensitive skin and allergies. Alpaca fibres are very smooth (smaller, and flatter scales than even merino wool) making it extremely gentle and soft against the skin.

Alpacas produce little to no lanolin which is present in sheep’s wool. Most people who suffer from allergies to wool are actually reacting to the lanolin rather than wool fibre. Any lanolin in alpaca wool is naturally washed out during the cleaning process. It is this lack of lanolin which makes alpaca hypoallergenic.

Reactions to dyes or the chemicals used in processing are also common. But our products are all dye-free, and the processing doesn’t involve any harsh chemicals.
