What is SnuggleWool?
A wonderful, machine washable merino wool blanket, with cotton flannel on the other side.
SnuggleWool™ is the trademark of the soft, pure, fleece pads which are fully washable one-inch deep pile lambswool made by Rittenhouse Industries. The wool, from the Merino sheep in Australia and New Zealand, is sliver-knit to a polyester backing and processed to withstand gentle machine washing. SnuggleWool™ products are designed for the baby to lie directly on the soft, deep pile lambswool. SnuggleWool™ pads are made from 100% pure, fine wool from the Merino sheep that has been hygienically scoured and treated to allow frequent machine washing and drying. The sliver knit fleece retains all of the natural qualities of wool (including absorption of moisture vapor, softness and cushioning) without requiring that the animal give its life. Manufactured by a family business in the USA.
The wool machine washes so well because it is woven over a 100% polyester grid. Use your gentle cycle. You can't see or feel the poly grid, because the wool is on one side and the cotton on the other. See cotton side color choices below.
"Dear Karen,
Just wanted to let you know that we love our Snuggle wools (and our other wonderful wool products we purchased from you) - we really appreciate how fast you ship your products and are so thankful that there is a company that is willing to accept orders from APO/overseas locations! We love all of your stuff and look forward to being continued customers for many years! Keep up the great work. Here is a picture of our baby in his snuggle wool - it's true, babies really do relax when they are in natural fibers. We love your webstore!
Thanks again,

"Hello Karen and everyone at Green Mountain,
I wanted to email and tell you just how much we love our Snugglewool Blanket. I had wanted one but had procrastinated on ordering. When we got home from the hospital I knew I had to have it. Our son hadn't slept a night in his bassinett until we used the snugglewool under him. Now he's in it every night and it's like he is sleeping on a cloud. You can just tell he loves it. Sooo worth the money.

You will notice the Snugglewool as a background in pictures all over this site. Why? Because in my experience doing photo sessions with babies, the Snugglewool blanket really does soothe baby. I'm convinced that babies truly are happier on Snugglewool than on other blankets. It sounds nutty but I have experienced this with so many different babies over 10 years that I'm convinced it's true. Babies are calmer and happier on wool. No, it's not one bit itchy. It's totally soft and snuggly!
Soft and wonderful.
Great for baby, but also for toddlers and preschoolers, too. Especially at naptime under newly potty trained kids, who might still have a nap time accident. It has saved my couch on many occasions.
Folded in half, it's perfect on the changing table. So much nicer than those icky vinyl changing pads. Just place a spare prefold diaper down on it when changing a poopy diaper to keep the wool clean, then wash that prefold as needed. Since it's wool, and airs out to fresh, it doesn't get yucky like the other kind of changing pads. I am convinced that babies enjoy diaper changing time when they are placed on a nice cozy Snugglewool blanket. Wool really is soothing to babies. They love it!
This one is almost 3 years old and has been used constantly, and machine washed and machine dried on low many times with Eucalan woolwash. It's my daughter's favorite, and it has held up beautifully.
Now here's the same blanket (27x36 size) 1 year later, now it's 4 years old. Still holding up fine. It's a little thinner than it used to be but it's still prefectly snuggly!
We just love our snugglewools.
A big size, almost a twin size, 36"x60". Moms and Dads love these, too. Perfect on the couch or wherever.
Also, we now have a smaller, new size 22.5x30 called "stroller blanket". It's the perfect size for bringing it with you wherever you go.
Snugglewool items are considered bedding items and are returnable only if new, unopened in package. Be warned that Snugglewools are arrive unwashed and new look, well, overly fluffy, or maybe look like a long haired shaggy cat. They change after washing to look like the pictures with babies! Don't expect your Snugglewool to look like these pictures when it arrives. It won't. But it will get all snuggly and lovely like the pictures after it's been gently washed. Washing instructions are on the inside of the packaging. Please follow the instructions. They are easy to gently machine wash but wool does not like heat so pay attention to the instuctions provided to keep it fuffy for years. The folded pictures showing the prints are unwashed so if you look closely at the sides you can see what I mean about how they look when new.

Blankie about 10 inches by 12 inches. A small blanket for baby to take places and hug. This natural wool blankie is so much nicer than a synthetic stuffed animal, plus it's washable. Soothing, lovely merino wool and soft cotton on the other side makes a great lovey.

Snugglewool™ Merino Wool Changing Table Pad Cover/Cradle Pad
Once you discover how much babies really do sooth and relax on wool, you'll want one for your changing table. This is like the blanket above, (scroll up for more info on Snugglewools) but doesn't have cotton on the back side. It has elastic to hold it onto your changing table pad. Wool doesn't feel cold like other changing pad covers. It's really lovely and babies really do love it! Make changing those adorable cloth diapers even more enjoyable with a Snugglewool pad. I often use a prefold down on tope of this, under the diaper area to keep it clean when there is a poopy change to do. It washes easily in your washer on gentle. I wash it with either the Eucalan or the Imse Vimse woolwash, and I add some Imse Vimse Wool Cure to it too for extra lanolin. I really do find babies love changing time on a Snugglewool. 18 inches by 36 inches. It will also fit some cradles as a cradle pad. 100% merino wool woven over a 100% polyester base. The base is what makes this lovely soft wool easily washable in your machine. Made in USA.
$52.90 each for changing table pad
Stock Status: Out of stock. More in February.
