The Wonderful World of Wool... Aristocrats wool cover review Sponsored by Circle Me, and a $25 GC GIVEAWAY

So I have been having a wonderful woolly relationship with my diapers! I recently blogged about my problems finding a night time diaper that works, and my recent discovery of fitted diapers and wool covers!!

Now, I am happy to share with you a review of an amazing wool cover from Circle Me! Vanessa from Circle Me sent me an Aristocrats wool cover for review! (This was the first wool cover I have ever come in contact with, and it was love at first sight)!!

This is what I received:

I then lanolized the cover. This is a great blog post detailing the steps to lanolizing your woolies!!
I have read that lanolizing covers inside out is more beneficial, as the inside of the cover (the part that comes in contact with the urine) is what really needs to be lanolized.
This process only needs to be completed with a new cover, and then every two weeks or so (depending on frequency of use, or if the cover gets soiled)!
Once the cover has been soaked, you should gently squeeze the excess moisture out, and you can also roll the cover in a clean dry towel, but be careful not to wring or twist the wool!!
Another really great step-by-step instructions for caring for wool, can be found HERE!!
I have been using this Aristocrats wool cover at night over a Sustainablebabyish (Sloomb) fitted diaper for my 3 yo heavy wetter for 2 weeks now, and he has been waking up dry every morning *SUCESS** :)
This is the Sustainablebabyish/Sloomb fitted that I use under the wool cover (it's a size large):
This is what the wool cover looks like over the fitted diaper:

Let me tell you a little bit more about the company Circle Me:

"Circle ME is a local business in Lincoln, Nebraska, but hopes to become a resource for families across the country. Formed by Bo and Jennifer Bryson, a husband and wife team, their vision was to inspire families to be connected in a more meaningful way through offering services and products that encouraged a natural family lifestyle. Cloth diapers, baby wraps and slings, diaper bags, natural toys and a variety of eco-friendly, chemical-free bath and body products are just the surface of what circle ME hopes to offer. We also offer free outreach classes such as Cloth Diapering 101, Baby Wearing 101, Natural Family Planning, Pro-Active Parenting, and many more!

During her pregnancy, Jennifer and Bo realized that many couples felt disconnected and uneducated about pregnancy, birth and parenting. They believe that the family, traditional or non, is the most important and influential unit in our world. Jennifer’s heart is that moms would be empowered to profoundly love their husbands and children, while at the same time maintaining their identity. Bo’s heart is for the fathers, that they would realize from the time of conception they can be proactive about their fathering. With these aspirations guiding the direction of circle ME, Jennifer, Bo and their staff are committed to helping families nurture each other and their environment!"
