Adjustable Grow-Along Fit: Long foldable cuffs for sleeve length adjustment across several seasons.
Perfect for Layering & Sleep: A great base layer together with our Unisex Leggings, and comfortable as pyjamas.
A classic piece that grows with your child: always just right.
Complete the Look: Thermal Under/Over Top 4-Season and Unisex Leggings.
Tip: Many families keep two, so one can air and rest while the other is worn.
Why Natural Merino Wool?
Warm Without Overheating: Cosy in the cold and comfortable when the weather turns milder.
Breathable on Active Days: Wool absorbs sweat and lets it evaporate, and stays warm even when damp.
Soft on the Skin: Smooth and comfortable, nothing like the wool jumpers you remember.
Less Washing: Wear daily, wash seldom. Wool naturally resists dirt and odours, and airing outdoors is usually enough.
Sizing
- Adventurer (1-2/2.5 years, 80-92/98 cm)
- Conqueror (3-4.5/5 years, 98-104/110 cm)
- Innovator (5-7/7.5 years, 110-122/128 cm)
Fit: A fitted cut in our exceptionally stretchy rib that adapts to all body types: lovely on its own or as a base layer.
Choose the size by your child's height rather than age. Our sizes are generous and our custom-knitted merino rib has a natural, built-in stretch, so there is no need to size up; between two sizes, take the larger one. Each size spans several stages of growth, so one piece is worn for many months, and often by the next child too.
See our Size Guide for help choosing the right size.
Material
- 100% merino wool rib in our 4-Season quality, approx. 190-200 gsm: a lighter rib for use all year round

Care Instructions
- Hand wash or machine wash at a max. temperature of 30°C on a gentle wool cycle
- When washing by hand, do not wring. Instead, press into a towel to remove excess water or machine spin at 400 rpm
- Shape while damp and lay flat to dry
- Do not tumble dry or bleach
- We recommend airing wool garments outside to refresh them. It's unnecessary to wash after every use.
- Use an enzyme-free wool detergent when washing your Natural Woollies, and let them rest between uses
- Pure merino rib without elastane relaxes a little with wear and regains its shape in the wash
