Alpine High Neck Sweater - 100% Baby Alpaca - Turquoise (18m-8y)

Stunning children's jumper inspired by the Icelandic style yoke sweaters. Knitted from 100% baby alpaca with a cosy high neck and an alpine motif. Similar style to the popular Sailor sweater but with subtle Fair Isle colourwork. 

Baby alpaca is a smooth and natural fibre for sensitive skin. We put As We Grow's knitwear to the test on our 8 year old in the 6-8y size and the following year it was passed down to the 5 year old and is now almost ready to be handed on again to our 4 year old. It's been very well loved and still looks new. That is the thing that always strikes us about As We Grow pieces, great value for money because they last so well. 

As We Grow is all about slow fashion, creating quality clothing that lasts; is timeless and designed to grow with the child.
