Potts Alpaca Baby Cardigan – Handcrafted Comfort from New Zealand Alpaca Wool
The Potts alpaca baby cardigan is a beautifully soft and breathable layer designed for comfort, warmth, and style. Made from alpaca wool grown on our New Zealand farm, this handknitted cardigan is perfect for thoughtful parents seeking premium newborn baby clothes NZ that are gentle on baby skin and kind to the planet.
Alpaca wool offers exceptional benefits over traditional fibres. It’s naturally hypoallergenic and free from lanolin, making it ideal for babies with allergies or sensitive skin. Incredibly soft to the touch, it’s also 30% warmer than sheep’s wool while remaining lightweight and breathable—so your baby stays cosy without overheating.
The Potts cardigan features a classic fit and a button-up front for easy dressing. Its flexible structure allows for freedom of movement and easy layering over bodysuits or onesies. Whether you’re heading out for a walk or cuddling up at home, this cardigan is a practical yet charming essential for everyday wear.
Each Potts cardigan is handknitted by local artisans, ensuring quality craftsmanship and ethical sourcing from farm to finish. We offer a variety of natural and dyed colours, and can also knit your cardigan to order in your chosen shade.
Soft, breathable, and sustainable, the Potts baby cardigan is a thoughtful gift for new parents or a lasting piece for your own baby’s wardrobe.
