Revolutionary Hook & Loop Closure Cover. There is nothing else like it out there, and we are excited!
Designed right here in-house, with care and attention to every detail. I personally diapered my own kids and spent 13 years working on this design.
Full Night-Time Solution which is also trim enough to use during the day, plus ADJUSTABLE so it changes with your diapering routine as well as the growth and changes in your baby.
Abrazo means Ebrace in Spanish. Embrace the future of Diapering with the Bumby Abrazo
Fold Down Rise. Inside you will find another set of soft “Loop” to fold down the rise a size.
Cross over waist closures with large front “Loop” to allow for over 3″ difference between settings.
4 Size System
Like all of our wool, the Abrazo is machine washable. We recommend cool water wash with Unicorn Beyond Clean & rinsed with Unicorn Beyond Soft to keep your wool soft, clean and healthy.
We also included washing tabs, sewn right on the closure tabs so you will never lose them. They are also great for diaper changes to keep the velcro clean and not stick to anything.
The first things to need replacement on diapers and cover is the Elastic, Snaps and “velcro” or Hook & Loop.
Upon opening your Abrazo for the first time you, will find a secret treasure! Better than the treasures you will find after using it a few times, it is a diaper as we know.
Not so secret inside access! ok, its a hole inside. At first glance it might look like we just forgot to sew it closed, but its intentional, and made me feel like a made genius too.
Triple reasoning
The Abrazo cover is a “turned” style cover where the serging is hidden inside. It is the only item we are able to make in this format and we are excited about it. Some have more sensative skin and this reduces chances for irritation.
The sizing is based on our Traditional Diaper Cover sizing chart.
The abrazo has a fold down rise system. For an example the medium folds down to a small rise
The Hook & Loop tabs adjust the waist from crossed over to near the outer hips giving more than 3" difference in the waist setting.
A really easy way to measure is to use existing pants that fit well. They don’t move around nearly as much as a squirmy baby!
Night-time diapers are usually bigger, so it is a good idea to take that into account
Check our chat group on Facebook. You will probably find someone with similar measurements or sizing to chat with and get ideas.
The wool is stretchy and forgiving.
Small Approx Fit
Medium Approx Fit
Large Approx Fit
XL Approx Fit
Rise is the measurement through the crotch along the belly and bum.
The rise of a diaper is the same when off or on a baby. Take this measurement and add 4″. This gives 2″ front and back for the waistband to sit above the diaper.
The waist measurement fluctuates a lot throughout the day on babies. I have seen even as much as 2″ difference. Measure on the skin above the diaper and aim for 2-4 or so inches smaller for the wool so they don’t fall down as easily.
Hips are measured around the widest part of the bum where the top of the diaper hits at the upper thigh.
The measurement on the chart is the “cut” measurement, and stretches at a lot and pretty forgiving.
XS – Smaller newborns
Small – Newborn to about 8 months
Medium – 3 months to about 12 months (or more*)
Large – 8 months to end of diapers
XL – 1 year to end of diapers
*My kids had trim diapers and little bums so never outgrew mediums

Cozy Interlock – Heavy Weight (CHW) So nice and soft and stretchy with a slight bouncy loft to it. Fluffy soft fuzzy finish. The most similar to “Fuzzy” wool many are familar with.
This wool is similar to our NEW and Hybrid Play wool types because it has a more flat durable feel to the fabric. It is still soft, no scratchy wool found here. Great for heavier play because twigs and dirt should more easily brush off. Also great for knee protection.
This wool is the heaviest we have had. It will be a great super soaker for nights. It has really nice stretchy to it, more so that the NEW did. Our testers found that is stretched nicely.

Machine wash wool?
Doesn’t that sound like a dream? Well lets make it a reality. We have partnered with Unicorn Laundry Care products because they are the best product I have found for our wool. Find a retailer near you or in our shop.
Our wool is thick and soft and likes to hold fluid. Which means it will hold onto soap and detergent unless it is rinsed and washed well. So we highly recommend using not only very little soap, but also to rinse well.
Unicorn Beyond Soft in a natural Fabric Conditioner. It helps keeps the fibers soft and healthy.
Step 1 Dissolve 1 TBSP of Unicorn Beyond Clean in some water
Step 2 Add wool to your washing machine
Step 3 Add dissolved detergent to the dispenser
Step 4 Turn on washer to Cool setting (use wool setting or lower spin)
Do a secondary rinse cycle, aka rinse and spin with pre-dissolved Beyond Soft Conditioner.
We also recommend doing this every so often to refresh your wool between washes. It removed light soiling and neutralized salts
Why Use Lanolin?
Lanolin is a naturally occurring wax found in wool fiber. It is cleaned out of the wool during processing the fibers for fabric and yarn. We only use the purest pharmaceutical grade lanolin. Lanolin conditions the wool fibers and gives the waterproof protection we love about wool. Lanolin also increases the wool’s anti-bacterial properties to help your diaper cover self-clean between uses and naturalize urine.
Use our Emulsion Blocks to create a lanolin rich bath to reintroduce this amazing natural goodness into your wool. Click the rest of the tabs for more information on how to use them.
You can also use our pre-emulsified Ready to Use Lanolin Blend to make it even easier! Made with all natural ingredients to take away the guesswork. Super rich, with at least 25% lanolin in the mixture.
Want something for on the go or between washing. Use our pre-mixed Lanolin Rich Spray. Helps boost the wool performance without the wait.

Basic Steps
Wool has been used for centuries in all climates. It keeps you warm in the winter and cool in the heat. Reducing night sweats and rashes
Wool is a naturally breathable fiber reducing rashes and keeping baby dry.
Our in-house proprietary dyeing process not only gives us stunning colours but also pre-treats the wool making it machine washable.
We had craft every item in our workshop. Each item is lovingly cut and sewn by our team. We appreciate your business and love doing what we do.
Wool sops up humidy and moisture and it also repells it. Its called a miracle fiber by many. The lanolin helps the wool repel fluids back to the diaper, then as it becomes too much it absorbs a tremendous amount before feeling damp.
Our stuff is adorable. It really is. Come join our Flock and you can see all of the custom made items we have made over the years. Our brand is more than clothing, its about family.

This was very beautiful and very high quality with an innovative design. The only single reason it got 4 stars from me is that my baby conquered the Velcro closure on this by the time she reached a year
