Babs

This comforting warm and soft cardigan is made from the mohair wool of young Dutch goats, a great itch free material. The yarn is GOTS certified washed and dyed in Italy. The Babs can be ordered with or without buttons!

The amazing properties of mohair wool

Mohair wool is light, super soft, and strong. It has a beautiful shine and a lovely furry texture, is elastic, and regulates humidity. This wool cools you down in summer and keeps you comfortably warm in winter. On top of all this, mohair has antibacterial qualities and it’s completely biodegradable. It requires little care, as wool is self cleaning, so some fresh air is enough to keep enjoying your favourite sweater for years.

Choose your colour and size

Babs is available in 4 colours. From left to right: Dark Blue, Light Grey, Taupe, Light Blue, Dark Grey, and Blossom (soft pink). It also comes in the goats’ natural color, off-white. All our dyed yarn is made following the GOTS standard. This means the use of chemicals is minimized. In order to recycle properly, we are switching to mono raw material: the colors light blue and blossom are already 100% mohair.

Made To Order

We work with the Made To Order principle. No sweater or shawl is made before you place an order. After 2-4 weeks your specially knitted sweater will be ready. Rest assured, it’s worth the wait. The MTO principle also allows you to indicate special size requirements.
