Hemp Booster | short
4,20 €
Absorbing inserts made of hemp are real suction miracles. They are put beneath a fast absorbing layer of e.g., a pure cotton liner or a cotton folding insert, but they are also great in combination with muslin nappies. The booster is 2-ply sewn and is used as an extra absorbing layer exactly where it’s needed: For boys rather at the front and for girls in the middle of the nappy. Even after washing and drying on a drying rack it stays relatively soft and will not harden.
Material: 55% hemp, 45% organic cotton
Size: Approx. 13 x 16 cm
Processing time: 2-4 working days

Basic Package Newborn | Cotton & wool
With this package you save 10% compared to the individual products
The basic package for newborns is the perfect way into the wonderful world of wool nappies. The package is designed in such a way that the absorbing inserts must be washed about every two to three days. The wool covers can dry out after use and must be washed once they are dirty or start to smell.
The package includes three wool covers of your choice, 32 absorbing inserts, lanolin and green olive soap flakes for greasing, wool washing soap for cleaning, and nappy fasteners that are used to hold the muslin nappies together. You receive various absorbing inserts that you can use from the beginning till the end of the nappy time, not only in the first months. The basic package gives you a great opportunity to also test the different absorbing inserts and to discover the most suitable ones that fits your baby’s needs.
Materials
The covers are either lined with knitted wool or wool fleece made of 100% organic merino wool. The outer fabric is made from stretchable (organic) cotton jersey. Stretchable nappies tend to fit longer than nappies made from non-stretchy fabrics (e.g., pure cotton) and this is important to us, especially for the little ones who are growing fast.

Cotton Flat
The cotton flat is made of 100% organic cotton and is ideal as top layer in direct contact to your child. Cotton absorbs the moisture quickly and pass it on downwards, but still allow moisture feedback. The insert is cuddly and soft. It will accompany you throughout the entire time of changing nappies, from the first day until the last.
- It can be used as a basic nappy, being closed with a snap (see photo). Suitable especially for newborns.
- Divided into thirds, it is ideal for newborn covers (size 1), as it offers sufficient suction volume and at the same time catches the still liquid faeces due to the loop-like structure of the terrycloth fabric. Faeces from breast feeding or artificial milk can easily be washed out in the washing machine
-
Folded along the narrow side, it is ideal for wool covers of size 2 and 3. In combination with a hemp booster it guarantees enough absorption capacity. Single, it can be used for short changing intervals.
Wool cover | Lavender dream
The scent of lavender is in the air. Wide fields of Provence, the warmth of the southern French sun and the feeling of lightness. Intoxicating and soothing at the same time.
The wool cover is made from stretchable organic cotton jersey on the outside and is lined with finest organic merino wool. The knitted wool comes from European mulesing-free and organic livestock farming, and is span under fair conditions in Germany. The wool cover must be greased with wool fat (lanolin) before first use to get water-repellent. It must further be combined with absorbing inserts (e.g., cotton flat, hemp flat, or muslin cloth) to form a complete nappy.
The wool cover is available in the following sizes: Size 1 (ca. 4-7 kg), Size 2 (ca. 7-12 kg) and Size 3 (ca. 11-16 kg), and as a one-size cover (ca. 7-16 kg). The one-size cover corresponds to Size 3 with reduction buttons on the front and can be, at least at the beginning, too large for slim children. Please note that the weight information of the sizes can only be an estimate, as the fit depends on the stature of the respective child.
Lining: 100% organic merino wool (knitted)
Outer fabric: 95% organic cotton, 5% elastane (stretchable)
Processing time: 5-10 working days
Additional information:
- You can also create a wool cover of your choice. Here you can choose a different type of closure (velcro instead of snaps) or wool type as lining.
- The labels are made from organic cotton and printed with eco-friendly dye
- Note that the colours may look differently on your screen
Nappy fastener
Nappy fastener provide a quick and easy way to hold prefolds, flats, and muslin nappies together. The fasteners are made of non-toxic, stretchable material (polyurethane). It has small hooks that claw into the surface of the fabric almost by themselves. Overlap the nappy on one side and hock in the nappy fastener, then overlap the nappy on the other side and hook in again. Then pull the third ring and hook in into a v-shape. You can reuse the nappy fastener and, if necessary, clean it under running water.
Do not use on children who can open their nappies by themselves. Under no circumstances use it without a cover. There is risk of injury! Please keep out of the reach of children.
