Merino hoodie - Rusty garden - in sizes 3mth - 3yrs

A sweet and useful addition to a little ones wardrobe. The earthy tones with vintage floral are fun and playful, and a great alternative to the overload of pink out there for girls!

The cut is casual, and roomy, with long cuffs that keep the sleeves from slipping down over hands, and are long enough to be rolled back. Both measures kept those sleeves out of food and messy play!

A large hood gives a cute pixie look, and a roomy pocket is perfect for keeping hands warm or for toddlers to collect their treasures.

These hoodies made using a quirky colour block mix of top quality light/medium weight striped, plain and ribbed 100% merino wool, which was milled right here in beautiful New Zealand. The pocket detail is created with a gorgeous colourful vintage viyella (cotton/wood blend twill)

If you aren't familiar with New Zealand's beautiful merino fabric you are in for a treat. It has all the best qualities of wool, but without any of the downsides. It's soft and supple, without the slightest prickliness people associate with wool. This merino fabric can be machine washed, it's strong and long lasting and doesn't pill, so garments stay looking new for a long time. It's warm in the winter and breathable enough to be worn on those temperate spring and autumn days.

This limited edition piece, only 3 made in this colour way!


***Please note that there are slight variations of the print that appears on each of the pockets, these are unique handmade garments :) ***
