✔ Pocketweave - BCI Organic Combed Cotton
✔ Soft & snuggly
✔ Great all-rounder
✔ Cush for the shoulders
The stunning mythical kelpies charge through the Kara sea in the Arctic circle in hues of icy ocean blue. With a gorgeous two-colour gradation across the weft, the horses dance in the cold twilight air.
This robust fabric is ideal for both infants and toddlers alike. Woven with our unique pocket weave technique the fabric will quickly become buttery soft and malleable. The wonderful cush and snuggliness make this a great all-rounder.
Our special pocket weave technique forms little pockets of air across the fabric which gives the fabric a lovely cush and slight bounce - perfect for carrying your little ones in ultimate comfort.
The mythical kelpie is said to be a supernatural water horse that haunted Scotland’s lochs and lonely rivers. We like to think that the kelpies in this design represent the protection of Scottish mythical creatures and cultural design. Read more about the Kelpies design on our blog.
By using BCI cotton we ensure that our cotton meets the Better Cotton Initiative’s high standards of environmental, economic and social responsibility. Our BCI cotton is also organic, meaning it is grown with care and without chemicals keeping the land, and farmers, healthy.
