Description

Magnificent hand-crocheted beanie. The beanie is adjustable at the neck to provide the best fit possible for your baby.

Super soft Peruvian sheep wool (90%) and alpaca (10%).

** PLEASE NOTE the beanie is knitted loosely as it should be with our beautiful Peruvian wool, for a fluffy and soft effect. It is therefore NORMAL for there to be HOLES through the stitches.

If you wish, you can get a small cotton beanie to wear underneath and "plug the holes".

Care

 

REGULAR CARE 

To help your slippers last longer, we recommend caring for them regularly with these simple tips: 

  1. Regularly remove pills with a small fabric shaver (which you can find here)! 
  2. Carefully remove any excess wool that may have accumulated inside your slippers by hand. 
  3. Make sure there's a small knot at the end of your cords. This will prevent the cords from fraying. If this has happened to yours, you can get new pairs here. 


CLEANING 

Sheep's wool is antibacterial, so there's no need to wash the slippers unless they've been soaked in coffee, vomit, or mud. In any case, it's important to hand-wash them in cold water, with a mild soap (ideally a wool soap) and avoid soaking them. Heat or soaking (even in cold water) can cause the wool to felt, which would completely change the size and finish of the slippers (or headbands or hats). If you do want to wash them, here's how: 

1. Remove the cords.

2. Gently hand-wash by running a little cold water over the area to be cleaned and softly rubbing it with Marseille soap or traditional soap. Rinse quickly without soaking. You can also use a soap specially formulated for wool, which you can find here. 

3. Leave to air-dry for 24 hours.

4. Remove the fuzz using a fabric shaver, which you can find at large stores or here. 

5. Reinsert the cords.

And there you go, your slippers have regained their youthful look!
