wool help

I bought a wool soaker to hopefully start using as a night time cover. I tried it today and it failed, miserably. It was only during a nap, too. Did I not put enough lanolin in when I did the prep wash? I used lansinoh, I read online that I could do that, but maybe it's not the right stuff?

I'm scared by wool! I dyed it with kool aid if that makes a difference :) Then swished it in some water with gentle baby soap and some melted lanolin. Then dried it.

    How long did you let it soak with the lanolin?  The EFF blog suggests at least 20 minutes.

    Oh, I just swished it around for about 30 seconds! That could be it, I suppose :) How much lanolin is needed, anyway? I just squirted some into the water without really measuring...
