I have the Little Beetle Little to Big cover and I LOVE it! It is super soft and stretchy and fits wonderfully. DS can sleep in it for 12 hours at night with a Flip organic insert laid in and it is still completely dry on the outside. If you are looking for a natural fiber bullet proof cover, this is it. The only reason I gave it 4 stars is because I don't know yet how well it will fit a newborn or older baby, but I guess thats what the sized covers are for :)
Purchased in 12/2007. Used this item for 27 months.

I love how soft these are. I have a size one that I have only tried on my nice and a size 2 and a 2.5 and a Little to big. I like the little to big the best becouse it is not as wide and will sitll strech to fit over just about aney diaper both with and rise.
The reason for the 4 is that my elsitc went bad very quickly in the 2 and the 2.5 these are not my trimmest wool cover but they are a close 2nd.
Merino wool, for super softness
wrap style, for ease of use
CONS:
Does not fit well on my super-slender LO--I can't pull the side tabs quite tight enough
The elastic is prone to stretch permanently, making the gathering useless
This is my favorite diaper cover. No reason to buy different sized wool covers. This cover is the best. I have the Little to Big. Amazingly fits my 6lb preemie, 19 month old chunky baby and my 4yo! Easy to care for. Fits over everything. Not bulky at all. We use Clotheez Prefolds from Green Mountains diapers, which is where we purchased this cover. Highly recommend that company. I use a snappi on my prefolds and this stretchy cover really helps hold everything in place. This combo to me is better than a fitted (pricy!) diaper. I am selling all my pockets (they stink, I love cotton!)!
This is one of my favorite wool covers! It is soft and stretchy, and I love the colors it comes in. The top is turned and topstiched so no extra material sticks out over the top. I love that my son doesn't get any marks on his skin when wearing this cover.I have one in snap closure and one in aplix closure. The snap closure is great for nighttime when you really want to snug it tight to hold any moisture in. Pair this cover with a Little Beetle prefold and doubler and you have a pretty leakproof combination.
