Wool cover for large LLS night nappy - what size rise?

Really hope someone can help me with this!

I have a large LLS heavy wetter night nappy on order but I also need to buy some shorties and longies to go over it as I don't think my current stash will fit. But I'm not sure what measurements to go for. It's the rise I'm most concerned about :-?

Does anyone have this nappy and could you tell me what size rise you opted for with your wool please?

Thanks so much x

Can you measure your Lo with the nappy on to get the rise? Or you could just say a large cover should do which is usually at least 18" rise. I like to make mine with a 20" rise for large night nappies. HTH :D

Thanks Shaunie. I don't yet have the nappy - it's a custom so I have to be very patient (not my strong point)! But I want to get my wool now so I can use the nappy as soon as it arrives:-)

Could you ask Beth or Amber the rise of the pattern and add a couple of inches?

i'm bored! - I googled, the rise for a large is 20", I would add on another 3 or 4 inches onto that. If its way too long then you could always fold the waistband down a bit.

But I like harry high pants for night time
