NEW ITEM 100% Merino wool-Hand knit hooded baby infant sweater zips up buying the back- Size is 12-18 months the color is lt coral/white stripes

BRAND NEW LINE OF SWEATERS

I came upon a super find of this VERY FINE machine washable and dryable MERINO yarn. A local yarn shop closed and the owner sold me the ENTIRE lot of her MERINO worsted weight wool. The deal was I had to take the ENTIRE lot. She sold it to me for an extremely reduced price and I'm passing that on to you. The yarn ALONE would cost the same amount as I'm selling these sweaters for. When this yarn is gone that will be the end of them as I will never get a deal like this again. This yarn is BEAUTIFUL. So soft. Not scratchy like most wool. And can be machine washed and dried at low temperature. I would recommend using a lingerie bag when machine washing and drying so it won't get snagged on anything in washer. I will include a lingerie bag with each order for FREE

ALSO

I will be storing these merino wool sweaters in a tote with cedar blocks. I live in FLORIDA and I'm sure the moths would love to munch on these beautiful sweaters. I chose NOT to use moth balls as the chemicals would not be good for a baby but they may have a scent if cedar on them when they arrive. Please air out before using (or wash them).

I have been making these unique zip up the back hooded babysweaters for over 30 years. They make a wonderful shower or new baby gift. Guaranteed there won't be 2 of them given!

This sweater is made from Merino 100% Wool yarn that is machine washable cold and tumble dry low. I also use quality nylon self healing zippers.

To buying dress baby in one of these you unzip the back. Put arms into sleeves, put hood over head and zip them in. Great in warmer climates. They are all you need for those Cooler days. In colder climates if you warm the car this sweater is all you need. They aren't bulky under the carseat straps and a blanket over the carseat keeps them snugly. Also great weight for a stroll in the carriage.

This sweater color is light blue and tan stripes. Perfect for that special little man in your life. It's Made from 100% Merino wool yarn.

The Merino Yarn come from specifically bred sheep. Their yarn is HIGH quality and extremely soft. This yarn is expensive to purchase hence the increase in price from similar acrylic sweaters, 100% wool yarn is usually Found in solid colors. There is not the choices in colors that I have with my acrylic yarn. This sweater was made for the person that appreciates the quality of high end fibers. I am experimenting with natural fibers in my baby sweaters. Lease check them out. I am offering 100% cotton, cotton blends (the 50/50 cotton/bamboo is very soft) There has been a call for it in the past and I am looking forward to doing business with you.

I have made the cotton sweaters in the smaller sizes thinking that by the time the infant is older natural fibers will not be that important.

I have quite a bit of this MERINO yarn. I will post a photo of colors available in the listings and am willing to knit to order. Keep in mind that when it's gone it's gone as this was a close out from the yarn shop. I have quite a bit of 3 shades of blue, light pink, a light ivory, coral, and a heather gray. There is a limited amount of Royal blue and Kelly Green. I have several listings that are available for immediate sale showing them in solid colors, wide and narrower stripes, and some with the raised ridge in them like my acrylic sweaters. I will knit to order so please message me so we can work in your special order. The natural fibers do not take the dye like the acrylics so many of the colors are not as vibrant as the acrylics and the wool is available in only solid colors.

This sweater is a 12-18 months size The color combination of light coral and white reminds me of that delicious vanilla ice ream on a stick with orange coating !


I am willing to knit to order in this yarn. Larger sizes will of course cost more due to the need for more yarn to make a larger sweater. A smaller size sweater can usually be completed within a week. Larger sizes a little longer. If I have more than one custom order I will let you know and give you an approximate time.

My sweaters fit average size children. I make sweaters in sizes:

Newborn-6 months
6-12 months
12-18 months
18124 months and
2-4 Toddler

My adorable doll model is available from Kinderlanddolls here on Etsy or on the web at www.kinderlanddolls.com

The doll and props are not included.

Please keep in mind that my doll model can wear only the smallest size of my sweaters. Each sweater is knit individually and there may be variations in the yarn.
