Details
The Deluxe Merino Rib Singletsuit is the perfect first layer for your baby day or night. Made from a luscious 220gsm, 100% merino rib knit fabric, these singletsuits are soft & snuggly with a great stretch, allowing the fabric to 'hug' your baby. Merino singletsuits are the perfect base layer for newborns right up to toddlers wearing size 3 clothing. The weight and rib construction of this garment means it is thicker than most on the market, is made to last longer, be more durable and warmer for those cooler months.
At The Sleep Store, we love to find amazing products that help children sleep better. Layers of merino are an essential tool in helping children sleep better in winter, so we are delighted to add these lovely quality merino singletsuits to our Deluxe Merino range. Layer this singletsuit with a merino zipsuit or onesie under a swaddle or sleeping bag nightime sleep. You can also use these singletsuits during the day under your baby or toddler's clothing. These are great for older babies at daycare because the dome closure means they won't ride up and get a cold back when playing during the day!
Why do we love Merino so much? Known as the 'miracle fibre' for infant sleep, Merino wool is a naturally temperature-regulating
and moisture-wicking fibre. It will help keep your baby warm in winter and cool in the warmer months without waking up clammy. It can naturally lock away odours, releasing them when washed or
aired - this can mean less washing... yay! Merino is also naturally
fire retardant. Of course, we recommend
keeping your children well away from any heaters and fires ("a metre
from the heater!") but Merino is a naturally low fire danger fabric.

Care for your merino
As with many wool garments, you may experience a bit of pilling on this garment. Please note this is often due to a soft fibre such as merino rubbing against other fabrics, such as flannelette sheets. We consider pilling a normal part of wear and tear on a soft merino garment. We could have treated the fabric much more to reduce pilling but then it would lose its lovely, snuggly softness.
Please take care with moths
Protect
your Merino from small holes created by insects such as moths and
silverfish. Ensure your garments are clean before storing. Lavender and
Cedar wood are noxious to these pests so storing your garments with
these scents or a moth trap will help protect your knitwear further.
Love your Merino and it will love you back!
