Pretzel Alpaca Baby Cardigan – Textured Newborn Knitwear Made with NZ Alpaca Wool
Add natural softness and timeless texture to your baby’s wardrobe with the Pretzel alpaca baby cardigan—a beautifully handknitted piece of newborn knitwear made from alpaca wool grown on our New Zealand farm.
This cardigan features an all-over textured pattern for extra warmth, charm, and style. Its intricate stitch design adds a tactile finish while remaining soft and gentle on delicate baby skin. Whether worn daily or saved for special outings, it’s a lovely layer for newborns.
Alpaca wool is lanolin-free, naturally hypoallergenic, and ideal for babies with sensitive skin. It’s warmer than sheep’s wool, yet much lighter and breathable—perfect for year-round comfort. Its moisture-wicking properties also help regulate your baby’s body temperature, keeping them cosy without overheating.
Each Pretzel cardigan is handknitted by local artisans and can be made to order in your preferred colour from our range of alpaca yarns. Designed for comfort, warmth, and everyday use, this cardigan is a beautiful heirloom piece or baby shower gift that showcases the best of New Zealand-grown alpaca fibre.
