We use wool in our home. I think God gave us an amazing creature to meet all of our needs and it is no small thing that our savior is called "Lamb of God".
Both of my children sleep on wool mattress pads and sometime soon I hope to do the same. My children are cloth diapered (Ethan only at night now) and use wool longies/covers to keep their clothes dry. I also use wool nursing pads and diaper liners for my Rachel!
****Wool is a fabulous textile that absorbs and wicks moisture away from the skin and can regulate body temperatures. Even when your hot, wool keeps you cool. Wool is anti-bacterial, anti-microbial and holds up to 40% of its weight in liquid as long as its kept lanolized. Wool resists both dirt and moisture; really high quality wool seldom needs to be cleaned if it is aired out frequently and allowed to dry thoroughly between wearings. Unlike synthetics, wool does not accumulate body odors. Wool is also heat and fire resistant. ****
Photos 2& 3 are of 'Barefoot Hollow' wool soakers! You can find this shop on Etsy! Photo 1 is a creation by 'Poverty.Jane', currently on a year long break! :(
****All this information is pretty common knowledge but I want to give credit to Poverty.Jane for spelling it out so clearly. :) You're a treasure Kate!
