The Festive Faces are here! Companions to the Friendly Faces, these cute characters are an adorable way for little ones to get into the festive spirit of Hallowe’en, Christmas and Chinese New Year!It’s never too early to plan for Hallowe’en! Sure it’s usually Christmas people like to start preparing for several months in advance, but personally, I prefer Hallowe’en. More fun, better movies and the perfect excuse to eat lots of chocolate!This Little Monster jumper is cute, not creepy! Hand knit in soft acrylic yarn, and available in several colours, how could you not give some candy to someone in this jumper!?While acrylic fibres can release microplastics into the environment, wool and cotton yarns aren’t always the best choice for items meant for babies and toddlers. Wool fibres are brittle and easily broken. These wool fibres can then be inhaled and settle in the lungs causing breathing problems for very young children. Cotton is great for light weight clothing made for warmer weather, but it is quite rough against sensitive skin compared to acrylic and blended yarns designed for babies. To help combat the problem of microfibres I would suggest washing clothes made with acrylic yarn in a laundry bag to catch the fibres. If in doubt please consult your doctor or child healthcare professional.
