Trim, high quality wool covers from Poland.
Newborn 6.5-13 pounds
Note from Karen: Trim! The trimmest woolie, best suited for daytime use. Works better over fastened prefolds than over Workhorse, because this is such a trim cover.
This is a very trim cover which means that it is trim on the bottom and also trim at the sides. Prefolds or flats trifolded or trifolded and fanned out at the back to get more coverage work well under this. Fitteds are a bit trickier to fit under them. Workhorse size Large and XL fits best in the OS PLUS Puppi. Medium Workhorse can work under the size One-Size Puppi but the diaper will need to be tucked in at the leg gathers. Fit varies with baby's shape. For example, it is noticeably narrower in the bottom than the wide shape through the rear of Thirsties Diaper Cover and Cloth-eez Wrap, for example. This cover is not really designed to go over fitted diapers, but as described above, it can work in the correct size. If purchasing this to go over a Workhorse Fitted Diaper we recommend sizing up in this cover.
It is designed to go over a narrower diaper such as a pad-folded flat or prefold. If not fastening the cotton underneath, we suggest spreading out the cotton inside the cover to keep cotton covering most of the inside of the cover for less washing. If you love natural fibers and desire a trim fit, this is lovely. Choosing trim will mean changing baby a bit more often. More bulk means more absorbency and less bulk (trim) means less absorbency = change a bit more often. That is always the tradeoff in all brands, kinds and fabrics. Wash wool by hand, but it doesn't need washing often. Sometimes you can go for weeks without washing a wool cover if you can keep messes off the inside. It airs out to fresh. Wool doesn't pick up odors like synthetics do. Enjoy natural fiber diapering. Snap colors may vary, within the same color family. These are made in small batches in Poland.

The Puppi brand takes special care to ensure that its products are environmentally friendly, which is why these diapers are made from100% biodegradable elastics, for which not even 1% polyester is used. Instead, organic cotton and natural rubber are used.
Very high quality Puppi diaper covers are made of two layers of extremely soft and thin merino wool flannel. Colorful snaps and decorative stitching make this diaper cover a conversation piece. Quality and attention to beautiful details. The leg elastics are soft yet very stretchy, which allows for a trim fit. Once lanolized, these covers hold moisture 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 into salts and water, so it does not need to be washed as often as PUL diaper covers. Simply hang to dry between uses. However, a hand-washing and re-lanolizing procedure is necessary on wash day. Instructions are included.
