Wool Baby Blankets — Warmth That Breathes. Comfort That Calms. A Heritage You Can Feel. Soft • Breathable • Nervous‑System Soothing • Natural Newborn Sleep Support Our Soul Comfort Wool Baby Blankets are woven from ethically sourced, premium‑grade wool chosen for its softness, breathability, and natural ability to keep your baby warm without overheating. Wool is nature’s most intelligent fibre, it responds to your baby’s body, insulating when they need warmth and releasing heat when they don’t. Unlike synthetics that trap heat or cotton that loses warmth quickly, wool creates a stable, womb‑like environment that supports newborn physiology, sensory regulation, and nervous‑system calm. Babies settle more easily because wool recreates the warmth, scent, and gentle containment they knew before birth. These are the blankets families reach for again and again, for naps, stroller walks, car rides, and quiet moments of connection. They’re heirloom pieces meant to be loved, washed, passed down, and remembered.

Not ours, we use premium, medical‑grade wool. Is wool hypoallergenic? True wool allergies in infants are extremely rare. Our wool is thoroughly cleaned for sensitive skin. General Care Expect light shedding at first, this is normal Air‑fluff in the dryer (no heat) for 5 minutes to remove loose fibres Keep away from high heat and direct sunlight Wool may “clump” over time, this does not affect performance Brush with a metal brush after laundering if you prefer a fluffier look Washing Instructions Machine wash on delicate in cool/lukewarm water (up to 70°C) Use wool soap with lanolin (e.g., Eucalan) Air dry or tumble with NO heat Remove from dryer at 85% dry Spot clean with warm water (up to 70°C) and Eucalan Do not bleach Wool is naturally antimicrobial and does not require frequent washing. To freshen, hang outside in moist air (out of sunlight); the wool will release moisture and self‑refresh. The Soul Comfort Promise Natural. Ethical. Handmade. Always.
