wool longies

Hi, we are having problem with fleece wraps overnight.
My DD is 6 months and in unbleached tots with booster, and redwrap on top. I have increased the size of her 'gro to comedy proportions as I thought it might be wicking - no real change.
Would longies be a better option- and has anyone seen a UK pattern anywhere?
Thanks in advance
debs

I have never had a problem with fleece wraps but def prefer wool. If you have a look on the cloth nappy addicts website I am sure I have seen a list of patterns. There is a section for people who make their own woolies, I think!! Also, some of the wahms sell patterns. Can't remember which- if you go the cloth resource website there is a list of wahms and links to their website. Hope this helps

I'm not clever enough to make my own but can highly recommend woollywraps. You can get longies, shorties or pants and they are fantastic! I HAD to have one of each

So, I'm going to ask a really stupid question ... Wool wraps? Longies?
Loved the baby long legs photos, but they look like trousers, yet are in the nappy forum. Please explain someone [puzzled emoticon]

they are lanolised, sop are waterproof. they work like wraps but are worn as tousers. i use them mainly as winter pj's bottoms, but she has worn them out and about as they are so so lovely.
