“Babies are amazing…they begin each day all warm and sleepy, smelling of promise.”- Julia Roberts

Baby blankets, sleepers and sleep sacs are some of the most used baby items, and when they are made out of wool, they are just magic. Wool is natural, hypoallergenic, insulating, temperature regulating, moisture wicking and repellant, odour resistant, stain-resistant,  self-cleaning, and biodegradable.

You might be asking, but won't wool irritate my baby’s skin? Blame it on the cheap, scratchy wool jumpers of our childhoods, but people often equate wool with itchiness. Well, we, at Warmth and Weather, want to say that is just not true.

Scratchiness in wool depends on the type of wool and the length of the strands of the wool, and since all of our companies create their items with the highest quality merino wool and they are so soft. Scientists have researched and stated that a wool allergy is actually quite rare and that if someone seems to be having any sort of reaction to wool, it is more likely a chemical used on the wool. Using organic or eco wool will usually solve the problem.
