Merino wool fibres also approximate the feel and properties of our skin when it comes to temperature regulation and breathability, making it an ideal textile for children’s clothing and merino knitwear Australia wide.
Australian Merino Wool for Children
Merino wool is a natural, renewable fibre made from the fleece of merino sheep. It has the benefit of being non-allergenic, which makes it great for kids' clothing. It has insulating properties that offer warmth in cold weather and regulate temperature in hot, humid, chilly or dry climates. Merino wool is also lightweight, soft on the skin, odour resistant, UV resistant, stain resistant and is known for wicking moisture and absorbing dampness from sweat.
Benefits of Merino: Girls’ Knitwear and Boys’ Knitwear
Choosing medium to lightweight merino wool for girls’ knitwear and boys’ knitwear makes it easy to layer kids’ clothes for Australian weather conditions. In cold weather, more layers can be added underneath or on top of the kids’ knitwear, and in warm weather layers can be removed. Merino knitwear is robust and durable. It is wrinkle resistant and static resistant, too, meaning it doesn’t attract dirt and dust and is hard to stain.
