Sizing
European children’s sizes correspond to your baby/child’s full length/height in centimeters. 1 inch = approximately 2.5 cm.
Choose the size that most closely matches your child’s height or longer, for example, if your child is 110 cm, buy size 116. If your child is heftier, go one size up.
Last digit of size roughly correlates to child's age.
- 92 = 2 yr = 37 in.
- 104 = 4 yrs = 41.5 in.

- 128 = 8 yrs = 51 in.
- 140 = 10 yrs = 56 in.
- 152 = 12 yrs = 61 in.

To maintain the health and longevity of your garments, organic wool is best washed by hand. Many modern woolen items are treated with chemicals to allow them to tolerate machine-washing. Certified organic wool does not contain such chemicals. Some washing machines have a special wool-cycle, which maintains a lukewarm water temperature throughout the wash and rinse cycle, as well as minimizing agitation of the garment, which can lead to felting/shrinking. See Caring for Wool.
We recommend hand-washing with Kookaburra Wool Wash.
or LANACare Lanolin Soap with even more lanolin, 7.5%. The higher lanolin content is recommended for nursing pads & diaper covers, or to add even more softness to your woolens and to prolong the self-cleansing properties of the wool.
