Engel's gorgeously soft organic merino and silk blend fabric has to be my favourite for newborns. It is just so delicately soft, like an extra layer of baby skin. It's naturally stretchy, with a slight sheen from the silk. Perfect all year around. Helps regulate body temperature and wicks moisture from the skin so even on the hottest days baby doesn't get sweaty. Silk is a naturally cooling fabric and merino wool has great properties for the skin whether it's hot or cold. Suitable base layer all year round. All Engel baby bodysuit onesies can accommodate a cloth nappy.

Note on using machine wash: Wool washing programmes of machines vary massively, therefore we can not grant warranty for any damages. With regards to using your wool washing machine cycle always use cold. If you choose to wash at 30 degrees the machine will still rinse with cold water and this shock to the fibres can cause the wool to shrink.
*Please note, like most Engel products the value lies in the quality fabric so they are priced by size. In addition their merino/silk blend costs more than the 100% merino fabric & dyed may be more than un-dyed.*
