WHY WE LOVE WOOL

Wool has wonderful natural qualities and is by nature created to protect the sheep against fluctuation of temperature and changeable weather. Therefore, wool is ideal for children who run around one moment and sit still the next. It keeps your child warm, but also has a cooling and moisture-absorbing effect, which makes it nice to wear when it's warmer, or if the snowsuit gets a little warm during play. Wool clothes are perfect as an extra layer under both light transitional jackets and winter jackets, and a warm wool sweater can be worn instead of a jacket during the summer.

THERMAL UNDERWEAR AND
NIGHTWEAR OF WOOL

Wool underwear with long sleeves and legs and body stockings of wool also work well as an extra layer underneath other clothes or as thermal underwear for skiing and playing on cold and snowy days.

Woollens are wonderful nightwear as well, whether your child is cold or warm at night. Wool nightwear helps the child stay warm, but also transfers heat and moisture away from the body if the child starts sweating.

MULESING-FREE WOOL

Wool is always important in our autumn and winter collections. Our unisex series of soft long-sleeved T-shirts, body stockings and leggings are made of 100% OEKO-TEX certified merino wool. Some children think wool clothes are itching, but go for merino wool, as it is softer to wear due to the thin and fine quality of the merino wool fibres.

We also love knitted vests, cardigans and sweaters made of a mix of wool and other materials like cotton and polyester. That means they are soft and durable and also have the wonderful qualities of the wool. All our wool comes from sheep that don't undergo mulesing. Mulesing is a painful procedure performed on some sheep, whose wool we have chosen not to use.

WOOL WASHING AND CARE

Wool is a sensitive, but also very durable material when treated right. It is important that you follow the care instructions when washing garments made of wool. Most woollens can be machine washed on a gentle programme or at a gentle setting but can also be handwashed.

Don't let the care and washing recommendations for wool put you off. It is a fantastic material, that you and your children are going to enjoy for a long time, and that can be used for many purposes.

5 TIPS FOR WASHING WOOL

1. Wool is self-cleaning - hang or lay it in fresh air and wash rarely.

2. Always follow the care instructions - or wash at 30° and at a gentle cycle and use wool detergent.

3. When handwashing, use lukewarm water (around 30°) and mild wool detergent. Handle gently and avoid wringing wool garments. Wash and rinse at the same temperature.

4. Don't let woollens soak and dry flat at room temperature right after washing. Avoid tumble drying your wool clothes - it might shrink.

5. Lay flat to dry across a drying rack or on a towel at room temperature - avoid direct sunlight. Avoid hanging wool clothes on a drying rack or hangers.
