Where does our fabric come from ?
New Zealand is one of the best countries in the world for farming merino sheep.
Merino has always been one of the best fabrics to dress your baby in as well as wrapping your baby up when sleeping. This is due to it's natural properties in terms of regulating temperature and helping to keep baby warm in winter and cool in summer.
Merino also helps to draw moisture away from baby.
However, the main reason we love merino, is that it is beautifully soft, natural, sustainable and is free from any synthetics.
Our New Zealand ZQ Merino is accredited wool grown under strict sustainable farming practices.
