I think I need one too. Will have to wait until after Christmas to buy one. I'm looking at the 17' x 24" one.

Wool is very irritating to my skin (possibly the lanolin), so I put my mat in an old pillowcase. I also have a wool mat on my Better Board; I covered it with a layer of quilting cotton. Both covers are thin enough that the wool serves its purpose; they also protect from Best Press.
