I read in the how to section that to lanolise my wool covers I use a pea sized amount. Does this mean I do each cover separately and use a pea sized amount for each? Or do I do them all together with just a pea sized amount?
Probably a silly question but newbie here:o

do each one separately
and turn the inside out too before you do it so the lanolin goes on the inside of the cover and not the outside.

did my first two last night:yelclap:. i did two at a time since our tub is big enough to lie them flat out next to each other. They feel wierd though now. I know that's how they're meant to but it's amazing how much heavier and 'soapier' they feel.
So proud of myself. I'll be the one able to give advice soon :laughing:

:rolleyes:Oh I'm an idiot. Just realised I've done them all wrong and will have to do them again. When the sticky said soak for 20 min I literally got it in my head to 'soak' so filled the sink up with water, placed the wool wraps in there and poured the diluted lanolin over the top. Hence the lanolin floats nicely ontop of the water and only comes in contact with the wool when I take them out:o.
Off to do the lot again then:laughing:
