Babies have very sensitive skin and need to feel warm and secure. Engel creates clothing to suit a baby’s needs. All materials are super soft. The clothes are designed to fit securely while allowing complete freedom of movement and they easily slip on and off so babies are comfortable during changes. Engel yarns are of the highest quality from Merino Sheep. Merino virgin wool is finely crimped making the smoothest yarns available for a soft, cozy feel that is itch free. The Merino sheep that produce Engel wool live in their natural environment, which is organically farmed. They live a healthy and stress-free life. The usage of pesticides is forbidden both on pastures and on animals, so there is no residue in the fiber. Wool fiber acts in much the same way as skin. Wool possesses excellent warmth retention and is naturally breathable. It also regulates moisture. It can absorb up to one third of its own weight of moisture and, depending on external conditions, can wick it away. These Baby Hats are cute and cuddly as can be. Keeping baby’s head warm prevents excessive heat loss. This article of clothing is an important part of every baby’s wardrobe almost year round. 100% virgin organic merino wool Soft and comfortable Breathable and lightweight Regulates temperature and moisture Made in Germany Engel Baby 100% Wool Fleece Hat
