Shakira – Hand-Knitted Baby Alpaca Vest with Button Detailing

Introducing the Shakira handknitted Baby Vest, a beautifully hand-knitted garment designed with both style and function in mind. Made from luxuriously soft, 100% New Zealand-grown alpaca fibre, this vest offers gentle warmth and comfort for babies while showcasing timeless Kiwi craftsmanship.

The Shakira vest features a practical and charming button-up design, with buttons running along one side and on the shoulder for easy dressing. This thoughtful layout makes it simple to slip on and off without needing to pull over your baby’s head—ideal for delicate newborns and wriggly toddlers alike.

Alpaca wool is naturally hypoallergenic, containing no lanolin, which makes it perfect for babies with sensitive skin or wool allergies. It’s also an excellent natural insulator, providing superior warmth without added weight. Breathable and lightweight, the Shakira vest offers year-round comfort—keeping your little one cozy in cooler weather while remaining cool and dry in warmer conditions.

Each vest is hand-knitted in New Zealand using our own alpaca yarn, known for its incredible softness and durability. Alpaca fibres resist stretching, so your baby’s vest will maintain its shape and beauty wear after wear.

The Shakira vest is available in a range of natural, earthy tones that complement any baby wardrobe. Whether you’re shopping for a special gift or looking for a go-to layering piece, this vest is a standout choice.

Wrap your little one in the natural luxury of alpaca with the Shakira handknitted baby vest—a garment designed to be worn, loved, and handed down.
