A prototype is a preliminary model of something. Projects that offer physical products need to show backers documentation of a working prototype. This gallery features photos, videos, and other visual documentation that will give backers a sense of what’s been accomplished so far and what’s left to do. Though the development process can vary for each project, these are the stages we typically see:

Truly Charis opened three years ago and our small, woman-owned, family-operated business has blossomed into one of the leading handmade wool diapering companies in the U.S. Here at Truly Charis, we specialize in all-natural cloth diapering with soft, thick and luxurious wool interlock diaper covers as well as super-absorbent, hemp/organic cotton cloth diapers! We have carefully designed and extensively tested each item to ensure an excellent fit, durability and superior functionality. Truly Charis is being built upon a set of core values: we aim to stick with natural fibers and work hard to keep production here in the US.

Not only is our Merino Wool Interlock milled in the US, we are now bringing you GOTS Certified Organic Merino Wool Interlock! With your help, we will be able to offer woolies made from this GOTS Certified Organic Merino Wool in both Natural and Charcoal dyed by our mill!

Why GOTS Certified Wool?

The Global Organic Textile Standards, also known as GOTS, is globally recognized as the highest quality organic standard. The GOTS standards cover processing and manufacturing of textiles, requiring a set of environmental and social criteria be met for organic certification. Having our wool interlock GOTS Certified proves to you that our fabric production has met these standards and our wool interlock is, at minimum, 95% organic.

Here at Truly Charis we strive to bring you the very best!

Why We Choose Wool for Our Diaper Covers?

Truly Charis uses organic superfine Merino Wool with a touch of Lycra for our heavyweight wool interlock fabric. The Lycra provides shape retention allowing for the woolies to be worn longer between washes. We mill our wool to be the thickest currently on the market making our woolies amazingly soft and stretchy. Here are some benefits of using wool as a cloth diaper cover:

Comfortable Option Year-round: Wool has amazing breath-ability making it the perfect fabric for diapering in both hot and cold climates and in any season. Keep baby cool in the summer and warm in the winter!

Provides Extra Absorbency: Since wool can absorb up to 30% of its weight in moisture while still feeling dry to the touch, wool interlock diaper covers can provide the extra absorbency right when you need it giving you an advantage against leaks!

Fewer Covers Needed: Wool diaper covers can go up to 3-4 weeks between washes. Since they only need to be washed if soiled or if they begin to smell while dry, fewer wool covers are needed than fleece or polyester covers. You only need 4-6 Truly Charis wool covers to cloth diaper with wool full-time!

Simplicity of Diaper Covers as Clothing: Truly Charis wool diaper covers are designed with style in mind. With our simple, yet classic designs, your baby can remain comfy without sacrificing style. Our leggings and cuffed longies are so comfortable baby will want to wear them every day!

Leggings & Cuffed Longies

Reliable Leak-proof Protection: A fitted cloth diaper paired with a high quality wool interlock cover is the most breathable and absorbent combination making it the perfect for leak-proof nighttime diapering. This combination is guaranteed to leave you with dry sheets in the morning!

Machine Washable: Truly Charis felts our wool fabric in such a way that our woolies can be machine washed on a gentle or wool cycle before laying flat to dry. This leaves less time washing woolies and gives more time to spend with baby.

Great Resale Value: Wool interlock truly is an investment, but it also has an awesome resale value and can be used to diaper multiple babies! This is where the durability of our wool really shines.

Excellent for Daytime & Nighttime Use: Wool diaper covers are a great option for moderate to heavy wetters for both daytime and nighttime use.

Ideal for Sensitive Skin: Merino wool fibers are made up of 90% keratin and are a similar compostion to our own hair and nails. The thick wool interlock acts as a second layer of skin and creates a barrier protecting baby’s skin underneath.

Truly Charis Woolie Styles

Our 3 most popular styles are our Cuffed Longies, Leggings, and Soakers. We are offering you woolies in these styles for supporting us in our endeavor to mill GOTS Certified Merino Wool Interlock right here at home! Each style will come in both Natural (undyed) or Charcoal, which will be dyed by the mill. Mill-dyeing the wool allows us to achieve rich, lasting colors that are even and wash-fast while still meeting the GOTS standards for organic labeling.

Cuffed Longies

Cuffed Longies are great for keeping up with the active play of babies and toddlers! The cuffs keep the woolies from getting in the way during play time.

Wool Leggings - Cloth Diaper Cover

Leggings are perfect for every season! They can be worn alone or as an accent underneath tunics and dresses.

Newborn in a Wool Soaker

Soakers are especially loved for nighttime use, but can be also be used underneath clothing during the daytime.
